What a great night for our children at the Hokitika Hub Expo last night. We were able to show our parent communities how we use digital technologies within the Learn, Create, Share framework. We are all very proud of our students.
Welcome to our school blog. We have information about our school and the things we do, and the learning that is happening in Hoiho, Kea, and Pukeko classes. We are a rural primary school a short drive from Hokitika, on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand.

Numicon and Better Start Literacy Approach
The children from the Pukeko room were able to show their parents last night how they use the Numicon (Maths) and Better Start Literacy Approach (Reading) in their learning. Both these programmes are new to our school and will be implemented in the Pukeko room during 2021. Thank you Ingrid and Denise for organising this.

Clued-up Kids day 2021
Our Years 5/6 students participated in the Clued-Up Kids event in Hokitika today. Clued-Up Kids is a targeted safety initiative organised by WestReap. There was a range of agencies involved and the children rotated between 8 workstations: Ag Safe Training, Animal Safety, NZ Police, Emergency Management, Community Public Health, St John, Rail Safety and Fire Safety.
What a great idea. Thank you, WestReap.

Mary O'Connor Mini Marathon 2020
Thank you to James O'Connor, our parents, staff, children and the wider Hokitika community for making the mini-marathon possible today. The children did really well and we were very honoured to have Mary O'Connor at the marathon as well. Mary competed for New Zealand at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California and did very well.
