Welcome to our Week 5 newsletter for Term 3. It is an incredibly vibrant and busy time around our kura at the moment as our production practices are well underway—a creative energy that will continue to buzz across all classrooms throughout the remainder of the term. Many of you may have already heard your children enthusiastically singing catchy tunes at home as they learn their parts and perfect their performances.
Kia ora koutou e te whānau,
We have another busy and positive week ahead at Moanataiari School, with some great opportunities for our tamariki to challenge themselves and share their learning.

Welcome to Week 3 of Term 3. It has been another busy and exciting week at Moanataiari School, with our tamariki continuing to demonstrate our school values in their learning and interactions. It was wonderful to see everyone looking their best for our school photos today. These photos capture more than just smiling faces - they record the friendships, growth, and memories that make each school year so special.
Kia ora koutou,
Welcome back to Term 3. I hope everyone had the opportunity to enjoy a restful break with family and friends. A special welcome back to Mrs Pooley and Mrs Kruger. We are delighted to have them back as part of our Moanataiari School whānau and know they will be warmly welcomed by our students and families.
Kia ora whānau,
As we wrap up an incredibly busy and productive Term two, I want to take a moment to wish all of our Moanataiari School families a safe, relaxing, and happy holiday.

As we move towards the end of the term, there is still plenty happening across our school. Our students continue to work hard in their classrooms, and we are looking forward to several special events over the coming week, including a visit to our junior students from Ruben the Road Safety Bear and our school disco on Friday.

As we move through the winter term, I continue to be impressed by the positive attitude of our students and the support shown by our whānau. There is a strong sense of togetherness across our school, and it is wonderful to see our values being lived every day in classrooms, on the playground, and within our wider community.
Kia ora koutou,
Attendance continues to be a key focus for our school. We know that regular attendance has a direct impact on learning, well-being, friendships, and achievement. Every day at school matters, and we appreciate the efforts our whānau make to support strong attendance habits.
Kia ora koutou,
We have another busy couple of weeks ahead at Moanataiari School, with many opportunities for our tamariki to learn, participate, and represent our kura.
As we move through these two shorter weeks, we wanted to let whānau know that there will be no newsletter next week due to the King’s Birthday holiday and the shortened teaching weeks.
