Papatoetoe East Primary

D5 wrote informative pieces of writing about Anzac Day and why the poppy is an important symbol of remembrance. They were excited to share their writing with other classes and teachers around the school.

✨April School Holidays at Our Libraries! ✨

Step into the Lost World these school holidays and let your imagination run wild!

We’ve got creative, hands on workshops and activities for children and teens.

📍Check out what’s happening across our Otara Papatoetoe Local Board libraries and plan your holiday adventure! https://www.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/

We want to start by celebrating the fantastic effort our school community has made recently; our school-wide attendance held steady at over 90% for weeks 6 & 7. This is a wonderful result that directly supports our students' learning and engagement.
Unfortunately, last week saw a shift, with attendance dropping to 86%—our lowest point for the term.

A Friendly Reminder: While we understand that rainy mornings can make the school run a bit more challenging, we encourage all our families to ensure students attend every day, regardless of the weather.

Let’s work together to get our attendance back above that 90% mark this week, the final week of Term 1.
