Before and After School

Arriving and Leaving

The first bell goes at 8.30am for children to go in and put their bags away and get ready for the day which includes saying hello to their teacher and/or friends.
Thank you to all of those children arriving at school on time to start the day at 9.00am.

Thank you to those parents and students who are leaving school at 3.00pm. All children should be picked up by 3.10. We will be asking children to wait at the office if they are still at the school at 3.15.

​Teachers and staff are not available to watch children after school as they have meetings and preparation commitments. Please ensure you pick up your child promptly as this is a safety issue.

​There is after school care available if you would like to book your child in for some days. Alternatively, ring the school on the rare occasion that you will be late. We appreciate your support in keeping our tamariki safe.

Out of School Care

We’re proud to partner with sKids (Safe Kids in Daily Supervision), New Zealand’s trusted Out of School Care provider with over 30 years of experience supporting families nationwide. Conveniently located onsite at our school, sKids provide a safe, engaging and supportive environment for our students beyond the classroom.
 
Their programmes include Before (Rise Then Shine), After-school Care (Stay and Play), and their action-packed holiday programme Holiday HQ. Each term offers fresh and varied activities and themes, giving children opportunities to play, learn and grow in a fun and supervised setting.
 
All sKids programmes are eligible for government subsidies (the OSCAR Subsidy) on the cost of care, making quality care more accessible for families.
