Māori Community Bi Annual Face to Face Consult 16 November 2.30 – 3.30pm

Kia ora koutou

I write to you all on behalf of the Whānau Hui group to invite you to school for our annual consultation and connection with our valued Māori Community


Māori Community Bi Annual Face to Face Consult 

16 November 2.30 – 3.30pm

The agenda set

  • 2.30 Seated in hall (1 person per family due to L2 100 maximum in total restriction for schools)

  • Kapa Haka dress performance (8 - 10 minutes)

  • Karakia (Roz or Nicky)

  • Principal welcome (Phil Wheeler)

  • Integrated learning links to te reo and culture (Whānau)

  • Survey (Whānau)

  • Open forum (Socialise, connect while being mindful of L2 restrictions) 

  • Karakia (for food)

  • Shared kai (Pizza)

  • Free to leave


Important L2 Note:

Given we are still likely to be in Level 2 we ask that only one family member per family attend the hui to keep numbers to less than 100.  Please scan in at the hall, sit 1 seat apart and socially distance from one another and of course we encourage wearing a mask.  

Feel free to contact me as well if you wish to offer ideas and information.  We really look forward to your attendance.

Kind regards

Whānau Hui Group

Farewell Assembly Friday 16 April between 2 and 2.30pm in our School Hall.

On Friday 16th April between 2 and 2.30 in our school hall we will be holding our farewell assembly for three staff members. Our pilot project with our two bilingual support workers comes to an end meaning at this point we farewell both Molly and Sepi. Unfortunately, we will also be losing Tania Hooper back to the ECE sector. All community members are encouraged to attend to pay their respects to these wonderful departing staff.

Canterbury RAMs

 12 lucky children enjoyed spending time with Ashley, a Canterbury RAMs basketball coach, and one of the players Mason, who stands 6 foot 9 tall and wears size 17 shoes! The session taught the children good basketball drills, team work and how to set meaningful goals for self improvement. A great moment here at Netherby School. Look out for the moment to be covered in The Courier this coming Thursday. Thank you Canterbury RAMs.

Tip For Parents

Give your child every opportunity to read to you daily. Ten minutes of reading five times a week = 50 minutes of reading time a week.

If you did this for a minimum of 35 weeks a year we have your child engaging in text for 29 hours extra every year! That 29 hours helps your child read better because they do more miles, are exposed to many words, and importantly are exposed to many ideas through the text.

It is a win - win for all concerned!
