In the event of a power or internet outage our phone system will not work. In that situation we will use our fax line (09) 846-7918 as our backup phone line.

In the event of a serious incident or emergency we will post information on the website and our phone system when we are able to. Please do not phone or come to the school - we will make contact with all parents via text & email when practical to keep you updated with the situation.

Report a Student Absence

If your child is absent or late for any reason you must phone the school on 846 7534, or email [email protected].  If you call before school hours please leave a voice mail message. The School Office will notify you by text message if your child is absent without a reason.

On occasion the school may use the group email function within our eTAP software to contact parents. This email will come from an '@etap.co.nz' address - it is a legitimate communication.

Visitors to the School

We ask that all visitors to the school, including whanau and family members, report to the school office to sign in.

Payment Options

KINDO Payment System - (our preferred method of receiving payments)

Kindo is a software solution that enables you to make all your child's' payments online:  from sports subs and trips to donations and lunches.  Permission slips will also be able to be accessed online - so there's no paper and no cash. 

Kindo is part of the EZlunch group.  If you are registered with EZlunch you are already registered with Kindo.

Kindo now offers payment by American Express, Mastercard, Visa or China UnionPay, by internet banking or by Account2Account (managed internet banking). POLi is coming soon. Card payments cost 50c+2.5% (a slight increase on last year) but other methods remain free of charge. You are welcome to add funds to your account regularly or in advance, or just pay as you go.
