First Aid Training for All Staff
On Tuesday 29th June, school will be closing at the earlier
time of 1pm so that all our staff can update their first aid
training. Bus pupils that can’t be picked up at this time
will be supervised until the buses arrive at their usual
time. OSCAR will be closed as well.
We apologise for any inconvenience but having staff
trained in first aid is essential.
Teacher Only Day
Friday 9 July (Last day of term).
There will be no school for tamariki on this day. OSCAR
will also be closed.
The purpose of Teacher Only Day is to refresh and
deepen our knowledge and practice around our local
curriculum - We will be visiting sites of historical
significance with a focus on local history.
This is our second ACCORD day for the year and does not
need to be made up at the end of the year.

A huge thank you to all our whanau who supported our
Senior students on this EPIC day. The students enjoyed
the experience and the opportunities that were
available for them to explore and guide them towards
future pathways.
Their behaviour was amazing in Auckland and they
showed true leadership as Seniors.

KOPUNUI
He mihi mahana kia tatou katoa nga whanau whanui o te kura o Moerewa. Kua tae matou ki te waenga o tenei wahanga, aue
tino horo haere te waa. Haramai!
Ko te kaupapa o tenei wahanga ko te Hauora. Hei tapiri tenei wahanga ki te wahanga o mua ka puta mai tenei kaupapa ko te
Hauora o te taiao, me nga tangata e noho mai nei. Ka ako matou i nga ahuatanga o te whare tapa wha e paa ana ki wa matou
hauora. Ka mohio matau, aa ka ako nga tamariki ehara ana te kai me te kori tinana nga ahuatanga o te hauora anake. Ka
akongia enei tamariki “He aha te kai hei whangai nga taha e wha o tona whare tapa wha. Kia aro mai koutou ki nga hua e whai
ake nei.
This term our kura kaupapa is Hauora. When we merge this kaupapa with the previous terms kaupapa of Taiao, we get the
health of our environment and the people within it. The environment Kopunui focused on was our school environment and
making it a happy and healthy environment for all. Added to this focus of a healthy environment, Kopunui are also looking at
the Whare Tapa Wha and the role that each side plays in our overall health. It's been a beauty so far whanau, keep an eye out
for the fruits of our kids labour.

Moerewa School Hauora Hub
We have been working closely with the Ngati Hine Health Trust to establish an onsite hauora hub/clinic
for our tamariki. The purpose behind this initiative is to ensure that our tamariki have access to ongoing
health services that will benefit their overall health and wellbeing. We must continue to break down the
barriers that exist in health that are just not delivering excellent outcomes for our whānau.
We appreciate the opportunity to come together with the Ngati Hine Health Trust and we look forward
to empowering our tamariki, whanau and hapu through this initiative.
Our first clinic will begin at the end of June (date to be confirmed). A separate panui will come out with
more detailed information and registration.
Please watch this space!!!!

After School/Holiday Programme - Placement
The positive numbers have climbed over Term 1 bringing us to a possible 18/19 enrolled
tamariki in the After School Programme leaving us with 1 or 2 vacancies from our capped limit
this term.
We always have a definite interest of 20+ for the Holiday Programme. We’re limiting this
programme to 20 at this stage due to staff and transport. If there are any changes to this we
will let you know.
This is just a friendly reminder that Moerewa School students will be given first priority to
either programme. After 11 June spaces will become available for the holiday programme for
students who do not attend our school.
If our Moerewa School Whanau would make contact by Friday 11th June, 2021 to confirm
their child/childrens placement in the Holiday Programme that would be greatly appreciated.
If you have outstanding fees please pay promptly. For those of you who wish to be invoiced
the School office will send these at your request. Any issues again, feel free to come in and have
a korero.
Closure
Due to a Full Staff Training Day and a Teacher ONLY Day there will be NO After School
Programme on Tuesday 29th June and Friday 9th July, 2021. Sorry for any inconvenience this
may cause you.
Keep warm and be well out there Whanau as these Winter days settle in. We look forward to
further korero throughout the term.
Thank you all for your ongoing support.

It creates temporary projects that are trialling ways of making streets safer for whānau and tamariki. In June and July, contractors will be on site installing the 'Innovating Streets for People' project outside Moerewa School and Otiria Marae on Otiria Road. The Moerewa innovating streets project has been designed by ĀKAU studio, working with tamariki from Moerewa School, and it includes beautiful tamariki-inspired graphics by local artist Lorraine King. The aim of the project is to slow traffic on Otiria Road and create safer spaces for tamariki outside Moerewa School. Once the project is in, it might take a bit to get used to! We ask whānau to āta haere through the site, particularly while you're getting used to the new layout. The project kaimahi will be back after it has been installed to ask the community how it's working. We will be reducing traffic entering the school as the road graphics and raised pedestrian are installed. Drop offs and pick ups will only be allowed near the town side of the current pedestrian crossing. We will communicate this as development progresses. You may see more staff out and about as the development builds. We are really excited to see this mahi taking place knowing how dangerous it can be on Otiria Road. We would like to thank our Board member and whanaunga Lorraine King for her ongoing support of our tamariki and community, Tukaha Milne for working with our tamariki on our local stories and designs for the project, ĀKAU for keeping us informed throughout the design process and of course, our community for their resilience and patience. These developments have been a long time coming! Maia Cooper, Principal
