Rangikura School

MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Family Harm School Alert System: – a wellbeing-focused initiative led by the Ministry of Education and Police.

Kia ora e te whānau

The purpose of the Programme is to notify schools in a timely manner when a student enrolled at our school has been affected by a family harm episode. The sharing of this information with schools is permitted by the Family Violence Act. The principal will be notified by the Ministry of Education or Police when a student enrolled at Rangikura school has been affected by a family harm episode. This will ensure sensitive behaviour management of the student, and the provision of additional support when required.

This information will be accessed by our SENCO Ms. Ondine Souter and myself. Once a plan is in place for the student, key staff members will be informed. This information will be stored on file only accessible to staff actioning support plans for the student.

Any questions about this process please get in contact.

A time for sharing, singing, remembering, letting go, goal setting and eating, while being thankful for everything we have today.

‘Tukua kia tū takitahi ngā whetū o te rangi’

‘Let each star in the sky shine its own light’

Rangikura School warmly invites you to our Matariki celebration.

We will observe Te Mātahi o Te Tau Hou Māori - the Māori New Year - with a Hautapu ceremony.

WHEN: Friday 5th July

6.45am (before dawn)

This will be a time for sharing, singing, remembering, letting go, goal setting and eating, while being thankful for everything we have today.

Te Hunga Mate - Acknowledging those who have passed

Some believe Pōhutukawa cares for those who pass throughout the year, and when Matariki rises again the spirits of those passed become stars in the sky.

If you would like to acknowledge your loved ones in our digital acknowledgement (which will be projected onto the wall) then please email matariki@rangikura.school.nz with their photo (by themselves) and their name.

If you would like to attend then please consider the following:

This ceremony will be completed before sunrise therefore it will begin at 6.45am sharp!

Parking is limited so it would be best to arrive early, or be prepared for a short stroll.

There is no postponement date. In the event of wet weather it will take place in the hall.

School Office

The school office has temporarily moved to room 19 (Pohutukawa block). The admin block is completely out of action. Thank you for your cooperation!
