| Tena Koutou Tena Koutou Tena Koutou Katou Welcome to all new and existing families to Tauhoa School |
Tauhoa School has a long history of educating children in this area for over 140 years. It was rebuilt in 2010. Our multi-purpose room and new library, Atuanui, were completed in 2017.
Our school operates an open-door policy and has a warm, approachable staff.
It is our firm belief that working with families enables us to provide an opportunity for children to develop into happy, well educated, lifelong learners.
Our school promotes the demonstration of Tauhoa Citizenship through “Doing your Tauhoa BEST”. Students are explicitly taught expectations and how to Be Respectful, Empathic, Self-aware, and Trustworthy.
Tauhoa School promotes learning with our learning tools or learner dispositions. We want all our learners to be: Resilient, Responsible, Inquisitive, Self-motivated and Collaborative.
Our school enjoys a supportive community with spirit and a passion to do the best for our tamariki, our children. Our school relishes the environment in which we live in and promotes the care of our land.
Whilst continuing to celebrate our traditional rural background, we also seek to create a 21st century learning environment. We want our students to be prepared for the future whilst celebrating their history.
I look forward to working and learning alongside you, and your family, at Tauhoa.
Vivienne Goldsmith,
Principal

We only have two weeks to go!! Here are a few things to keep in mind.
Potatoes - Due to the strike on Thursday, October 23rd, we are requesting that all potatoes be delivered to school on or by October 22nd
Duty Roster - This roster has been released a few times. We require a minimum of one person per family to put their name down for at least one duty on the day. Another updated roster will come home on Friday. We are still desperately in need of home-baked goods to sell at the cafe, as well as any plants or produce for our stall (E.g., Eggs, fruit, and vegetables, jams & preserves). We also need items for our white elephant sale. (no clothes this year)
Animals- It's not too late to register your animals. Also, please let us know of any changes to your registration.
Also, please let the office know if you can help with setting up any day of that week.
This is a long and exhausting week for everyone, so we also ask that some families stay behind to help us pack up and clean up.
Regards
Jody Otway
