Wiki Tuawaru (Week 8), Term 2 2024: Next week’s message from Jason Elder

Friday 14 June 2024

Tēnā Koutou Katoa

Well done to all our Speech Finalists. The standard of speeches was outstanding. Look out for next week’s Newsletter for the results and photos. 

The Stratford Primary School Board are looking to continue being apart of the School Donations Scheme in 2025. What does this mean for whānau? As a school we do not charge a school fee. Schools who are part of the School Donation Scheme are able to ask for parent donations for overnight camps. Stratford Primary School asks for camp donations only in Year 5-6 and Year 7-8. The Camp Donations are essential if we are to continue to offer this to our tamariki due to the significant costs. 

We need your help: Recently, we have had two separate incidents where people have been riding motorbikes on the school fields after hours. If anyone notices this happening and/or any other anti-social behaviour on the school grounds, please call 105. 

Week 8, Term 2: Monday 17 June to Friday 21 June
# Tuesday 18 June: Ākonga Council Hui. 
# Wednesday 19 June: Out of Zone Enrolments for Term 3 due. 
# Thursday 20 June: Kapa Haka.
