I am writing to advise you that the burnt out water pump has been replaced and we are now able to open the pool to the community outside of school hours. We are disappointed that vandalism caused the pool to be closed to the community. To help prevent this happening again, if you see any inappropriate behaviour please could you email me, principal@waitoki.school.nz with the date, time and a description of the behaviour so that I can follow up.

If anyone has any photos from the school senior swimming sports we would greatly appreciate them for our school year book. Please send to mlawson@waitoki.school.nz

 

Peaches/Nectarines:

If anyone has any excess peaches/nectarines we would love to take them off your hands to freeze for use at our Graden to Table programme at a later date.

 

Many Thanks

We are so excited to announce that our first William Pike Challenge Outdoor Activity for this year will be a trip to Action Ninja World in Matakana, on Wednesday 25 March 2026.

Link:Action Ninja World

We will be leaving school at 8:45am. Please arrive at school by 8:30 am so we can do the roll and get organised. We are travelling by charter bus, and we anticipate arriving back to school at approximately 2.45pm. If your child normally catches the school bus home, please make arrangements to collect them directly from school.

Can we ask you to please complete the required permission slip on Skool Loop under Forms.

The cost for this trip is $47 per student including transport costs. Permissions and payment must be completed by Friday 20 March 2026. Payment can be made by Eftpos at the office or through the school bank account, we are happy for payment to be made in instalments.

Your child will need to wear comfy clothes and closed in shoes suitable for climbing, bring sunblock, a hat, warm jumper, togs and a towel, a drink bottle and a full lunchbox! (morning tea and lunch).

We look forward to this fun day out with the students.

Thank you
