Suzanne will be working in tautoru for the first six weeks! We are excited to have her!

For the start of the second half of the year we have swapped base group spaces. Danny and Chrissy now meet down at the blue zone and Gillian and Scott now meet at the green zone! This is to encourage the sense of belonging--we all belong to the whole space!

Dear Parents & caregivers,

We have made some changes to our writing groups in Tautoru because as we all know change is good and we all need to embrace it. 

Your child was told their new writing teacher in the last week of Term 2. We will remind them of their writing groups in the first week of term 3. 

If you have any queries regarding this, please do not hesitate to see your child's base group teacher.

Thanks,

Tautoru Team

Mystery Skype with Whangarei Primary School

Some of us Mystery Skyped a class from Whangarei Primary School. It was fun having to research and find places on a map.  We took turns and asked questions to each other to narrow it down until we got the correct school.

Whanau Group Art: This is displayed in Kilbirnie Library

In 2013 the school decided to make whanau groups so then different people can work with each other and siblings can work together. This piece of art is about Ngake and Whataitai. Everyone in the school has contributed to this piece of art.
