| 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

Dear Parents/Caregivers,
RRS Soccer & Hockey Year 4-8 Friday 12th June 2026
Our year 4-8 students will travel by bus to Port Albert sports field on Friday, 12th June 2026, to participate in the Rodney Rural Schools Soccer & Hockey Day.
All students will be required to wear a mouth guard. We will start practising these sports for P.E. leading up to the sports day, so all students (including Year 3 students, as they will be included in the practice) will need to have them at school every day for practice. Please remember that these will need to be moulded and fitted to your child's teeth. We will have these available to purchase from the school office for $8.00 each.
On the day, the bus will leave school at 9 a.m. and transport all students. Please advise the office or your teacher if you plan to take your child/children straight there. As usual, all parents/caregivers are welcome to come along and help out for the day. The bus will return to school in time for the after-school bus. Students will be given sports uniforms for the day.
Reminders
Full morning tea/lunch and a Drink bottle

PLEASE SIGN THE MOUTHGUARD NOTICE AND RETURN TO SCHOOL OR SIGN THE FORM IN THE "FORMS" SECTION ON THIS APP.
