Schools may seem separate from you and your family but you will always have a big role in your child’s education and learning. With support from the Ministry of Education, New Zealand schools are set up to give the community a say in deciding how their school works. You are encouraged to become part of our school world and to help with your child’s learning at home. Your ideas, concerns, needs and aspirations make our school a special and unique place – it’s your school! Please remember, it is very important to build a partnership with your child’s teacher and me, the Principal. You have a say in your child’s education, so this is a great way of sharing your concerns and ideas and getting feedback about your child’s progress. If you can help our school in any way please feel free to talk to us, we really appreciate your thoughts, help and ideas!! ‘Your interest and involvement is important’: Research shows that being interested and involved in your child's learning has a big impact on helping them to fulfill their potential. As a parent or caregiver, you play a major role in their learning journey from the moment they are born to the time they become an adult. Working alongside the school will help to equip your child for a future in which they have a strong sense of well-being and can make a positive contribution to their community. You can help your child by taking an interest in what they're learning, their homework, and by reassuring them that to do their best is the most important thing. If you think your child needs extra help you should talk to myself or your child’s teacher. How you can help your child to learn • Make sure your child is eating well and getting enough exercise and sleep so that they're ready to learn when they're at school. • Take an interest in what your child is learning at school and discuss their work with them. Make sure your child knows their homework is a priority and encourage them to complete it. Quote for the week: "The important thing is to dare to dream big, and then take action to make it come true." Joe Girard Ken Ward - Principal
