Teachers will ensure students know what they are learning, when they have been successful and where they are going to next.
Self and peer assessment is a routine step in the learning process.
Success criteria are most effective when great examples of work are used to show what quality looks like.
Teachers will use the learning progressions in the curriculum in order to confidently work with a diverse range of students.

Kia ora koutou,
What a fantastic and busy term it has been!
The Te Waotu Board has continued its work behind the scenes to support the School’s strategic priorities and ensure resources are directed where they can make the greatest difference for our students. The 2025 financial statements and audit have been completed and published online. These show a strong year for Te Waotu School, providing a solid foundation for continued investment in teaching and learning, student well-being, and future opportunities for our tamariki.
Our staff continue to invest significant time and energy into curriculum developments, creating meaningful learning opportunities and striving to achieve strong outcomes for all students. We thank them for their ongoing commitment and dedication.
During the upcoming holidays, the mezzanine area in our hall will be upgraded to create a safer and more versatile multi-purpose space. This project is being funded by Ministry of Education as part of our 5-year property plan, and has been made possible through earlier projects being delivered on time and within budget. We look forward to sharing details of future property improvements as they progress.
Planning for Agri-day will kick off shortly, including preparations for Calf Club and the Great Farming Auction - our largest fundraising event of the year. These events are only possible because of the incredible support of our School & community. If you would like to be involved in organising this year’s event, we would love to see you at the first planning meeting on Wednesday 1st July at 6pm in the staffroom.
Your Te Waotu School Board members are Jess Mardell (Presiding member), Courtney Graham, Melissa Barbour, James Pelham, Mathew Wright, Michael Thompson and Sarah Topping.
Thank you for your continued support of our school. We wish everyone an enjoyable break and look forward to another exciting term ahead!
Nga mihi,
Jess Mardell (Presiding Member, Te Waotu School Board)
