Teachers' Paid Union Meeting Wednesday 23rd November
On Wednesday 23rd November, all Waiuku primary school teachers will be attending a Paid Union Meeting. Waipipi School's time slot is at 1pm.
We would appreciate you making arrangements for your child/ren to be collected from school between 12-12:30pm.
Only support staff will be present at school in the afternoon and will supervise any student that is not able to go home at the earlier time. Buses will run at normal afterschool times- not earlier.

We will be having a gumboot mufti day this Friday. Students may wear mufti and their gumboots to school. (Please name your child/ren's gumboots)
