Looking ahead to term 4

Sun Oct 11 11:31am

Kia ora TNIS Whānau,


Welcome back to Term 4. We hope you had a wonderful holiday.


The holiday break has once again been a productive time on site, with the whole school being ChemWashed, the playground and tree maintenance completed, a number of classrooms furnished with Autex on the walls, new roof guttering installed and a range of other tasks undertaken to ensure our school remains a wonderful learning environment.


Key events this term include:


Labour Day: 26 October – Public holiday.


Teacher Only Day: 27 October – For the upskilling of our teachers.


School Athletics Day: 23 October – Held at the Takapuna Athletics Club.


Carnival Day: 20 Nov – Held at TNIS.


Book Week:  30 Nov-4 Dec – To promote a school-wide love of reading.


End-of-Year Disco: 2 Dec 6-8pm – Theme to be decided.


End-of-Year Prizegiving: 11 December – Held at WGHS 12-2pm.


End-of-Year Reports: 14 December – These will be emailed to parents.


TNIS Picnic Day: 15 December – Held at Woodhall Park. Narrowneck Beach


Last day of school: 16 December, with school finishing at 12:00 PM.


More information about each of these will be made available closer to their dates.


We encourage families to stay connected and informed through our school website, the TNIS School App, and our official Facebook page, which provides updates and reminders throughout the term.


A few important reminders:


Learners are expected to arrive and leave school in full school uniform, unless participating in a Zone Day, when they can come to school in their PE gear, including sports shoes. No ‘crocs’ are to be worn on Zone Days, please. As the weather improves, we encourage all learners to wear their school hats whenever they are outside at school. Please ensure your child’s hat is clearly named.


For safety reasons, the front car park is closed from 2:55 pm to 3:15 pm daily, allowing learners to exit the school grounds safely. There is limited parking in our school car park, but additional parking is available in the overflow car park by the Adventure Playground. There are also places near the school where your child could meet you after school. Please note that you can only exit to the left from our school car park until the three school buses have departed.


Because the weather is unpredictable, we recommend that every learner have a raincoat or umbrella in their school bag each day. A reminder that sandals cannot be worn with socks.
Attendance and lateness: Regular attendance is essential and supports a government initiative that we fully endorse. If your child is absent, please notify us by email, the school app, or by calling the office every day they are away. The school day begins at 8:45 a.m. Please help your child by ensuring they are at school and ready to start at least 15 minutes before this time. Arriving late disrupts the learning of others and results in missed learning for your child. If you require support to improve your child’s attendance for any reason, please inform their classroom teacher or contact Sandy Harford at sharford@tnis.school.nz.

We’ve seen high levels of illness across our school community recently and appreciate your understanding when teachers and staff have needed time away to recover.


A big thank you to families for keeping children home when they are unwell. This really does help minimise the spread of illness and protect our students and staff.


Thank you for your continued support and understanding as we work through this particularly challenging winter illness season.


Have a wonderful weekend!
