Dear Parents,

Reviewing the charter
This year we are reviewing our Charter document with the Ministry of Education. Some parts such as the National Education Guidelines and curriculum are set in legislation but others e.g. ... Mission Statement are ours.

*  the way we treat others
* enjoying the learning process
* self improvement

" whakaaro nui ki etahi - consider others enjoy school and seek to improve ourselves".

Please take a moment to consider our Mission Statement which is based on the Rotokawa motto and send us your thoughts below.
Do you feel that these ideas are a solid base for our school.       Yes / No
