There are a number of different ways that we communicate with our whānau. In all our communications, we aim to be clear and provide you with all the information you and your tamariki need.

Almost all information is provided via the Hero parent app so it is important that you download this to your phone or if you prefer to access it via the Hero website you can do that too.  

We always endeavour to send messages out in a timely manner but there will be times when communications come out at short notice because of last minute changes out of our control.

Please contact your child's kaitiaki kaiako if you have questions about how to access the information you need about your taitamaiti at our kura.

Here is what you can expect:
