Congratulations to our Silent Auction Winners.

A black pouch containing some valuable items has been found along Redwood Avenue and handed in to the Redwood School office.

If this sounds like it might belong to you, please call into the school office and describe the contents so we can make sure it gets back to its rightful owner.

Come and join us for an evening of Rock N Bingo.
Grab a friend or two and come along to what promises to be a fun evening. Instead of numbers, you'll be listening out for songs you know and love.

Kia ora, whānau,

Kererū are heading off on a trip into town tomorrow. Please be aware that we will have multiple buses loading in the morning and returning during afternoon pick up. Please be considerate and show patience, particularly when we return in the afternoon.

There will be some cones out so please do not move these.

Please also be considerate to our neighbours, pedestrians, other road users, and our road patrollers. A reminder to not park across driveways or yellow lines.

You may have noticed we have variable speed limit signs installed along Redwood Avenue.

The legislation comes into force by 1 July 2026 however Wellington City council may start enforcing the new speeds from 1 June 2026.

The speed limit is 30km/h between the hours of 8.20am - 9.10am and 2.40pm-3.40pm.

Safe Speed Limits Outside Our School
Wellington City Council is rolling out safe speed limits outside schools across the city, including ours.
As part of this programme, a new variable speed limit of 30km/h will operate during school travel times on roads outside our school gates. This change will apply within 150 metres of the school gates, helping to create a safer environment for our whānau as they arrive and leave each day.
You can find more information about the project, including which schools are included and when the changes are expected to happen, on the Council’s website:
👉

Safe speed limits outside schools We’re putting variable speed limits outside schools during school drop off and pick up times.
