Home Learning: Your ongoing support of the classroom teacher and their set home learning programme for your son/daughter is essential. Books need to be returned as required by the teachers. Classroom Teachers will liaise directly with you with specific requirements

Pre-school Visits: Approximately one month prior to starting school, children are invited to attend school sessions. Please coordinate these visits with our school office.
PTA: A very active parent group operates in support of the school. Forthcoming events are notified via the weekly school newsletter.
School Website: This contains information of importance to you such as Board of Trustees policy and financial documents, Annual Plans, Strategic Plans, Annual Targets and Charter. Class blogs can also be found there. You are invited to explore!

Reporoa Valley Schools Cluster Group: We join six other local schools for sporting and cultural events during the year which are notified via the school newsletter.
