School Newsletter Week 7 – Term 3
Te Panui o Whangamarino
Tena koutou katoa / Dear Parents, Caregivers, Whānau and Community
Members
Our last few newsletters have contained our students stories, artwork, photographs of science
experiments, students participating in Kapahaka and Production, students baking and so many
other aspects of rich teaching and learning programmes that are offered at Whangamarino School.
Today you will find yet more in this one – enjoy! Literacy and Numeracy learning provide a
strong basis for students to access the curriculum across the whole New Zealand Curriculum and
Te Marautanga o Aotearoa.
While all of our tamariki experience success, learning is not linear. At times, when our tamariki
struggle to make the progress teachers and parents want them to make, we have solid Action Plans
in place to support them to get there. Although our kura has been closed for a number of weeks
in Terms 1 and 2 due to Covid 19, targeted learning has continued in the classroom. The Matific
numeracy boost programme has been in place across the kura. The literacy boost programmes
like Te Huinga Raukura in Rumaki and Reading Eggs in Auraki (all programmes funded by
Ngati Whakaue Education Endowment Fund), support agencies, teacher aides working alongside
quality teachers in classrooms and parents supporting at home are all part of the recipe for support
and success. Alongside this we employ teachers who believe in all tamariki achieving, are
committed to getting them there and create warm, supportive learning environments for students
to feel safe and take risks with learning.
All learning at Whangamarino School is future-focussed, preparing our tamariki with the
transferable skills necessary to operate in whatever future they may find themselves in. I am
extremely proud of the leaders in our kura Matua Rehua Mihaka, Whaea Tiria Haylock and
Whaea Miriata Oranje for collating and analysing student data for our Board of Trustees. All
data will be shared with you in next weeks newsletter.

Congratulations To Whaea Denice Langendoen for winning our Secretary / Office
Administrator role. Denice has been working with Whaea Tesh in the office for a long time now
and has an excellent grasp on what is expected in this role. We all look forward to continuing to
work with her.
Congratulations to Taine Anapu for winning our Daffodil Day ‘guess the lollies in the jar’
competition. Taine guessed 1150 lollies and there were 1151. Our thanks to everyone who
participated in this fundraiser. We made approximately $250.00 for the Cancer Society.
Welcome – A warm welcome to our new student Anahera Brown-Wyatt. We hope you enjoy
your time with us here at Whangamarino School.
Welcome also to our two new kaiawhina, Whaea Amanda Hunter and Whaea Kayla Bishop.
Welcome to Paerangi Haimona for winning a position with our Free Health Lunch providers
Libelle Group.
Production – Maui and the Genie - I am sure you must all appreciate that a School
Production is a considerable undertaking and I would like to congratulate our tamariki for all of
their hard mahi in preparation for our Production. My thanks also to our Director Whaea Angie
Belcher and our kaiako who have been working hard over the last few weeks. For this reason
we are pleased to let everyone know that we will be continuing with our wonderful Production
this term under Alert Level 2. Woohoo, we are all very excited about this decision.
There are rules for gatherings to plays and performances at Alert Level 2, for example (we will
need to keep the cast and backstage crew separate from the audience for the duration of the event.
We can have up to 100 people in our audience at a time. In other words on stage and back stage is
one defined space, and the setting out front is another defined space.
To make this easier for us we have decided to hold two matinee (day time) performances
(Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd September) and one evening performance. The matinee
performances will allow our Koeke, the Kohanga Reo, local trust representatives, Lake Rotoma
School and Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Rotoiti and whanau to attend during the day.
We will be holding only one evening performance (Wednesday 23rd September at 6pm) for
whanau members that work and can only make it at night. For the evening performance we are
able to keep our students here at kura and give them a sausage sizzle for dinner and then start
preparing them with makeup and costumes straight after dinner. However, if you want your child
to go home on the bus first and bring them back at 5pm to get ready that is fine too. At the end of
the evening show all tamariki will need to go home with parents. We will need to confirm
numbers a bit closer to the date for all performances.
A big mihi to Paehinahina Mourea Trust for donating $1,000.00 towards our production. We are
very grateful for this amazing koha!
Emergency Drills - Over the following weeks we will be holding our emergency drills. We will
be practising a fire, earthquake and lockdown drill over the next few weeks. Please talk with
your tamariki about how these drills would work at home if there is a fire, earthquake etc.
Staffing for 2021 Prior to the end of this term I will hear about our potential staffing numbers for
2021 and this will enable me to begin planning for 2021 which I am sure we all hope, will be free
of the ups and downs we have had this year due to Covid 19.
Te Roopu Manaaki Fundraiser this Friday at 6.30pm at Pikiao League Club – A reminder
that this Friday is our Batons Up. We have approximately 30 more battons to sell.
The kitchen will open at 5pm, so please come along and join us for dinner. The menu is below.
We will need parent helpers in the kitchen before and after dinner is served. Please come along
and join in the fun. Any queries please contact Whaea Hilz here at kura.
Have a great week everyone, keep safe and look after yourselves.
Ngā mihi

Congratulations Taine Anapu Daffodil Day’s “Guess the Lollies in the Jar Winner”
KTAM ki te whakaputa whakaaro mō te tuhinga whakaahua whaiaro. He tuhinga hei whakaahua i tētahi tangata, i tētahi kararehe, i tētahi me nui ki ahau.
TAKU KINIPOAKA ‘RUA’ Taku kinipoaka ‘Rua’. E kotahi tona tau. Kaore mātou he mokai hou. E tino pirangi ana matau, he tino pouri hoki matau na te mea i mate e 2 nga kinipoaka. Inaianei he kinipoaka kotahi. He ataahua ona karu, he parauri, he nui. He tino pai ia ki te mahi nga whakangaio. Ka taea e ia ki te kimi rare kunikuni rua. Tino tere ia ki te kaukau me te oma. Ka takoro ki waho me ki roto. Ka kai nga karoti tino reka. Ka tango whakaahua mātou i ngā wā katoa. Tino pai taku kunikni rua. He pango, he ma, he parauri te tae o ona makawe0. He ihu tino iti. Tino koi ona matikuku. Tino piataata nga niho. Ataahua taku kunikuni rua.
Na Ngatai Mear
TAKU HOIHO KAHA I te haere matau ko toku whanau ki ta matau pamu a Takapau ki te eke hoiho. Ko Crystal te ingoa o taku hoiho. He pai te eke hoiho ki au na te mea he kararehe pai nga hoiho ki au. Kei taku hoiho nga karu paraone, he ihu roa, nga waewae teitei, he whiore roa, he tinana momona me nga makawe poto he pango te tae. Nōku ake taku hoiho. Kei a Darcie, Moana-Rose me Alexandria he hoiho hoki. No matau te waimarie. Ka whangai au i taku hoiho e toru nga ra kura, tahi te ra whakata. Ka hoatu wai maore me te ua ranei ki a ia. Ka kai ia nga karoti, nga karaihe, nga aporo, nga paraoa me nga hei. Ka horoi ia ma te ua me te awa hoki. I haere matau ko oku tuakana, toku papa me toku mama ki roto i te ngahere mo te eke hoiho. He hoiho kaha a Crystal.
