Welcome to

Our School

	Academic achievement above the national norm.
	An individualised new entrant transition programme. We will work with parents/whanau to develop a transition programme that suits individual needs.
	We are a Positive Behaviour 4 Learning (PB4L) school. This means we teach students social skills and our expectations around behaviour are clear and consistent.
	Restorative Practice is the approach we use to deal with conflict, such as teasing or fights between peers so students are held accountable for their actions and learn from their mistakes.
	A KiVA Anti – Bullying School, which means students have weekly lessons on how to be nice to others, prevent bullying, be an upstander and what to do when bullying occurs.
	The school’s beautiful safe physical environment supports creative play at morning tea and lunch times.
	A specialist Special Education Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO).
	Our new entrant classes are a combination of a play based approach and a more traditional approach.
	A bicultural environment within the school.
	We are well resourced with sports and outdoor education equipment.

Opotiki Tai Mitchell Rugby

8 Apr 2024

Kia ora.....on behalf of the Tai Mitchell committee and coaching team...????????

I'm putting a panui out there to all our 2024 Tai Mitchell candidates (boys who are under 13 yrs old as of 1/1/24 and under the 53-56kg'ish ???? mark max)...those that are a little heavier but can make the weight easy...pm with details and we'll let you know if it's achievable etc as we dont need the bigger brick 65kg+ kids rolling up just to smash our smaller candidates ( lol).

We will be having our first official TRIAL on Wednesday April 10 at Princess St Reserve from 3.30pm-5pm... meet and greet in the carpark

Please bring BOOTS! SOCKS! SHORTS! MOUTHGUARDS! RUGGED SHIRT (NO TRIALS in SCHOOL UNIFORMS PLEASE-unless its sports wear)and any other armour you may need...

This is the last week of kura before we break off for holidays... (if needed ...a 2nd trial will be in the holidays as we want to get our team rolling into the next term)

Trainings will then be set to Wednesdays and Sundays from the holidays through to campaign in July...

Reminder we still have extra training on Mondays at 3.30 at Opotiki Primary School untill we change our schedule.

This is open up to ALL boys who meet the criteria from Waimana through to Potaka and everywhere in between... including those Year 9 students who still meet the weight and age criteria....
even if you don't play regular rugby but are an anomaly who wants to have a crack at higher level rugby or just shows up to carve up in the school comps... then come along and have a go...

Thanks,

Ngaio Paruru
