Team Aroha: Room 6: Nau mai Haere mai Welcome back!!!





Nau mai, Haere mai, Nga Mihinui, TenĂ¢ kotou katoa. Talofa lava, Malo e lelei, Kia orana, Nisa bula vinaka, Taloha ni, Fakalofa lahi atu, Ni hao, Namaste, and Warm greetings to you all.


Talofa lava, my name is Whaea Rose, and I am very excited to be a part of your child’s learning journey this year in Aroha 6, and being part of this amazing passionate team here at Rowandale School. It is always so great to see children eagerly returning to school. Their enthusiasm for learning is a joy to see. I look forward to contributing to their learning and development in a fun, safe and stimulating way while building new relationships with your child and your whanau.

Here at Rowandale we have an open-door policy so please pop in to say hello or ask me any questions before or after school. If these times do not suit, please phone the office and make an appointment.

Uniform & Attendance: Please ensure that your child is at school every day and wearing the correct uniform when at school. All uniform items and any materials / equipment of their own, need to be clearly named with their first and last name.

Lunches: We are proud to be a healthy eating school so thank you for ensuring your child has a healthy morning tea and lunch on a daily basis.

Homework expectations: A reading book and spelling list will be brought home each night in separate notebooks to read with their parents/ guardians or whanau.  Please ensure to have both books signed off once completed, and feel free to provide feedback. Reading at home will reinforce your child’s learning at school, so we will appreciate your support with this. All books must be returned to school the next day in your child’s book bag.

Poetry is part of our reading programme.  Your child will also bring home their poetry book and a reader on a Friday. After reading the poem together, they will need to put the poetry book back in their book bag and return it to school on the Monday.

I look forward to working together with you to ensure with Aroha and Rowandale PRIDE we Empower, Encourage, Engage and Nurture each other along our journey towards GROWING OUR PEOPLE!

Nga mihi nui

Whaea Rose
