TUMUAKI/Principal's News

Kia ora koutou,

Welcome to the last week of term, here are a couple of reminders on this lovely sunny day! 

Please use your Hero app to book conference times for your children/tamariki this week. These are being held on Tuesday from 3:20-5:30pm and Wednesday 3:20-7pm. We will be closing this off at 3pm today.  After that, you can book in with your child's class teacher.  These are three-way conferences, which include your child as they will want to share their successes and show you around their learning space. 

At 3pm today, we will be turning on the assessment and reporting data as part of our mid-year reporting.  This information will be discussed at your conference this week, as well as celebrating the first semester of learning.  Here is a link to a slideshow to help explain the new curriculum and reporting requirements. Please email me at penny@templeton.school.nz if you would like to book a time to discuss the changes in more depth.  If there is interest, then we can run a group session early next term. 

Thank you for your understanding as we navigate these new and exciting curriculum changes.

Kia ora e te whānau,

On Wednesday 5th March, some University of Canterbury researchers will be at school distributing surveys to our kaimahi/staff, tamariki/children and whānau/families.  This research is to share with us the strengths our school has and the opportunities for growth.  We have included a PDF below with more information and hyperlinks to even further information.  If your child is in Year 5-8 they will be bringing a paper flyer home today with QR codes to look into as well.  

Very importantly, participating in this study is voluntary; it's your choice and your child's choice. No one is under any obligation to participate. Whether you choose to participate or not will in no way affect your relationship with our school or the University of Canterbury. 

This year, we will be working with the team at E Tū Tāngata,  to help introduce some strategies that we hope will improve the teaching, learning, and social-emotional environment of our school.

Please open the link below to read more.  We are hoping that you will support us with this research and future E Tū Tāngata initiative.
