Tararau REAP will be at Norsewood School tomorrow - Tuesday 8th September between 9.00am and 10.30am.

They would like to hear about what is happening in our community and what the issues are, that are facing you and your whanau. They would love as many families as possible to call in. The chat will only take 10 minutes and everyone who participates will go into the draw for one of two $50 prezzy cards. Tea and coffee will be available.

Good Evening.  The William Pike Tramp to Sunrise Hut has been postponed until next Monday weather permitting.  It is school as usual for Rata tomorrow.

Tomorrow our whole Kura will be travelling by car to the Science Roadshow at Huia Range. Please ensure your child is at school by 8.50am as we need to be in town by 9.20am for our time slot. If you have notified us that you are taking your own child/ren in, can you please let me know if you are going directly to Huia Range so we are not waiting at school for you.

Thank you to all of our whanau that are keeping students home when they are sick.  We have Infuenza A in the school and have had RSV over the last couple of weeks.  This has meant our daily numbers are low, however, childrens health is more important.  Our Student Management System, in accordance with the Ministry of Education rules, will automatically email you if your student has had more than 5 days off in a term.  If you have kept in contact with the school about your child's absence, then I can record that this is due to sickness, so please don't panic over these emails, however, I can only do this if whanau have kept in communication with us.  Please let us know when your child is away and the reason.

Thank you.

Due to snow fall, the school bus will be leaving at 2.30pm today. Parents are welcome to come and collect their children earlier if possible.
