A huge thank you to our wonderful school community for your generosity and support of this year's Food Fairy Fun Run. Thanks to the amazing efforts of our tamariki and their whānau, we collected an incredible amount of food donations for those in need.
Today, the Salvation Army collected the donations and were absolutely overwhelmed by the quantity of food received. They expressed their sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed, noting that these donations will make a real difference to many individuals and families in our wider community.
We are incredibly proud of our tamariki for embracing the spirit of giving and community service, and we thank everyone who donated food, sponsored runners, and supported this special event.

Great turnout on Sunday for our MotoX event in Purau. A large crowd of experienced and youth riders enjoyed multiple laps on the spectacular trail overlooking the Bay. A massive thanks to the Diamond Harbour School Education Trust and the many volunteers that made the day possible, including our sponsors (pictured). A very special acknowledgement must go to organiser Andy Veal, who made sure everyone knew what to do and where to do it, while Chris Gardiner, the land owner looked out for the Senior riders, and Tim Duningham watched the Juniors in his paddock. A massive $7000 was raised, bringing us a giant step towards our target.
We are looking for parents or community members who may be able to assist with our school road patrol over the coming weeks.
One of our regular volunteers will be unavailable from Tuesday 19th May until Friday 26 June, and we need help to cover the following mornings:
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Even if you are only able to help on one morning a week, or for part of this time, your support would be greatly appreciated.
If you are able to help, please contact the school office at [email protected]
A massive thank you to our incredible Diamond Harbour School whānau for your outstanding support in our “Save Our Pool” raffle fundraiser.
We are thrilled to announce that, thanks to your hard work and generosity, we raised just over $8,000 from this raffle alone!
To all the students and parents who got out into the community to sell tickets and spread the word — thank you. Your enthusiasm and dedication made a huge difference.
A special thank you to the wonderful team at Four Square for selling tickets at the counter, and to Harriet and her friends, who spent time out the front selling tickets and sharing updates on our progress.
and to the Diamond Harbour School Education Trust and the Board for helping make this fundraiser possible.
This incredible result is a true reflection of what can be achieved when our school community comes together. Every ticket sold brings us one step closer to securing the future of our beloved school pool.
Thank you all for your time, energy, and unwavering support.
