Principal's Comment
Kia ora Parents and Caregivers
The children at Onekawa School are wonderful! Everyday I'm amazed at their kindness and empathy towards one another.
This week, I observed a Year 1 student attend to another young child who had fallen over and was injured. Charlie was so kind and caring to his class mate. He made sure the child was okay and then offered him his ball and went off to play with him.
Charlie actions are typical of the children we have at Onekawa School. Thanks so much for your care and concern Charlie... you are awesome!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Moveathon - Tuesday 15 November - 11:15am
We would really appreciate it if every child can collect donations for completing this fun event.
If you need another sponsorship form, you can collect it from the school office.
Money raised will contribute towards our 'playscape' development, which we intend to start in the next few months.
Parents and caregivers are very welcome to attend and watch the fun. Children are encouraged to wear their house colours for the event. There will also be house points awarded and spot prizes handed out!
Kind donation from New World Onekawa!
We have found the perfect spot to situate the kit and will be using it from the start of next year.
This is a wonderful gift and we are very appreciative. Thanks New World Onekawa!!!
Congratulations to our week 4 class certificate winners!
Player of the day certificate winners for week 4!
Reminder - Road Safety Outside School
A particular cause of concern is the Menin Road/Gallipoli Road intersection. Please keep a special watch out for children in this area.
Once again, we thank most adults who stay off yellow lines and park safely. We really thank you for helping to keep our children safe.
Sun hats
School Swimming Pool
Please have your children bring their togs and towel to school every day of the week.
A big thanks to Mr Heal for preparing and maintaining the pool to a high standard!
