Attendance

 We have almost all our tamariki back. Thank you for sending them to school each day and for making contact if there is a reason why they need to be absent. Our first bell is at 8.30 am, this is when students can enter their class and get themselves set up ready for learning to get underway at 8.40. We ask that you please do your best to ensure they are at school by this time. 

If tamaiti arrive after the 8.40 bell they need to go and see Miss Dot and receive a late pass to take to their class teacher.This is to ensure all tamariki are accounted for.

School finishes at 2.45pm. All students are to be off-site/off-school grounds by 3pm unless they are attending training for a sport. This is for safety reasons as we do not have supervision in case of emergency, injury or incident.

Contact SKIDS (after-school care) if you need supervision for your child/ren

School Uniform
Terms 1 and 4 are our warmest terms. Tamariki must wear our school hat during outside times. Our summer uniform consists of school shorts, skirt, polo shirt and school and school shoes sandals, black, white, or navy blue school or sports shoes 

Crocs, jandals or Heelys are not suitable footwear, and are not part of our RPS uniform.

If your child is wearing a piece of jewelry as part of their culture/religion please advise their class teacher or our school office.
