SEHC JUNIOR SCHOOL FACEBOOK IS SHUTTING DOWN. WE USE CLASS DOJO FOR EVENTS & NOTICES

Matariki celebrations have started across Aotearoa NZ. Next week we take on our Matariki traditions.

Our parents told us they want us to remember the past, have kai, give thanks and plant seeds for our future.

This poster is a challenge to our community and staff to be a Matariki Star!

ps: don't forget Friday 28th June is Matariki day and a public holiday (school will be closed)

Time to meet and chat, see you soon :)

SEHC Junior school is moving towards paperless newsletters. Please connect with your child's classroom teacher to ensure you are on Class Dojo to get the latest news. Should you wish to continue to get the paper version, contact your child's teacher also. Note: Class Dojo continues to be the Junior school's main online site.

Every day is a great day! We aim to come to school everyday, unless we are unwell and need to go to the doctors. Take care, and see you all soon 🥰

Last weeks newsletter, for those who did not see the distributed paper newsletters. See you soon!

Kia Ora Whānau,

Today on Wednesday 8th May 2024, we practised our emergency procedures under the guidance of Harrison Tew®, who specialise in emergency management planning for schools and educational facilities.

The procedures we follow allow us to respond safely and quickly to a range of situations. We are pleased to inform you that our practise today went very well with our students responding safely and calmly.

During the year we will continue to practise our emergency procedure exercises to ensure all staff and students remain familiar with them.

Should you become aware of a lockdown or an evacuation at the school, can I please ask that you not attend the school or phone, as we will not be able to respond. Your presence or contact may make it more difficult for us or the emergency services to manage a situation.

Any information pertaining to an emergency occurring at the school will be updated on our website as regularly as possible.

We believe that it is important that we conduct regular practices for lockdowns and evacuations so that we can all be well prepared and familiar with our procedures should an emergency occur.

We thank you for your continuous support.

Nga mihi nui

Mrs Vaoiva
