Dear Primary Parents and Caregivers,

We are delighted that many of our students enjoy spending time on the playground after school. To help us maintain a safe and secure environment, we kindly ask that all families vacate the school grounds by 3:15pm each day.

As staff responsibilities vary after school, there are times when staff members are offsite attending meetings, appointments, or other school commitments. To ensure the safety and security of our school, we need to be able to lock and secure the grounds in a timely manner each afternoon.

If you choose to use the playground after school, please remember that children must remain under the direct supervision of a parent or caregiver at all times and that all families leave the school grounds by 3:15pm.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Kind regards,

 

KingsGate Staff

Good afternoon, parents and caregivers.

 

Please note that notices on Skool Loop that relate specifically to the primary school levels (Years 1–6) are posted to the Primary (Years 1–6) group, or to Puriri or Totara, depending on their relevance.

Earlier today, a notice regarding Three-Way Chats was sent out. If you did not receive this notice, now is a good time to check your Skool Loop subscriptions to ensure you are subscribed to all groups relevant to your child(ren).

Please make sure that all applicable groups are selected. This will ensure that you receive important communications and notices that are specific to your child’s year level, class, or school group.

This also applies to the High School year levels.

Thank you kindly.

Upcoming Three-Way Chats - Years 1–6

_{"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing." 1 Thessalonians 5:11}

We’re looking forward to our upcoming Three-Way Chats on Thursday, 2 July in Week 11. These are a valuable opportunity for students, whānau, and teachers to come together and discuss each child’s learning journey – celebrating progress and identifying next steps for continued growth.

⏱️ Time slots will run in 12-minute increments, so we kindly ask all families to be prompt to help us stay on schedule. Due to time constraints, if a longer discussion is needed, please arrange a separate time to meet with your child’s teacher. Meetings are held in the LIFEspace. Please book one session for your child’s whanau teacher. 

📲 Bookings are now open and can be made via the SkoolLoop app. Bookings will close on 3 pm Monday 29 June. Late bookings cannot be submitted.

 As teachers will be conducting Three-Way Chats, regular classes will not be held on this day. We strongly recommend that students remain at home during this time. Please note that there will be minimal teacher aide supervision for students available at school on the day. Please indicate via the booking form on SkoolLoop if you require this option. 

We look forward to meeting together to share in the celebration of your child’s learning thus far!

Blessings, 

Year 1-6 KingsGate teachers
