Tūmanako – Raranga Matihiko
This week Tūmanako was lucky enough to be selected to be one of the first classrooms to spend time in the new digital classroom at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. They learnt how to use lots of different technologies and will be using them to create digital projects to share our stories about our community. Later in the term, the teachers from Waitangi will be bringing the technology to our school for us to continue our projects.
New School Sign
We are currently planning to have made a new school sign for the front of our school. We have consulted a number of local elders who have all said that if the sign is a bilingual sign, then these are the best options for the school name;
Kaikohe East School
Kaikohe ki te Rāwhiti
If you have any comment about the name that is to be included in the sign feel free to contact Whaea Chicky to discuss.
School Lunches
A reminder that we now only offer school lunches on a Thursday and a Friday. On both days this term Pies - $2 eacher or Juicies/Moosies - $1 each are available for sale. Orders are taken in the school office.
5 year olds for Term 4 and 2019
If you have a child who is turning five either next term or in 2019 and starting school here with us we would love to know as soon as possible please. If you could let us know your child’s name, their date of birth and if you have time come in and complete an enrolment form with Whaea Chicky. If you have available your child’s birth certificate and immunisation record they would be helpful too. Call the office if you have any questions.
