Welcome to Hora Hora School.

Nestled beneath Mt Maungatautari in the heart of rural Waikato. We have a current roll of 41 from year 0-8 operating 3 classrooms. Programmes have a strong emphasis on literacy and numeracy.

Welcome

Agricultural Day


Hora Hora School's annual agricultural day is a cherished event that exemplifies the deep connection between the school and its community. This special day, held each year in the heart of the picturesque countryside, brings together students, teachers, parents, and local residents in a celebration of rural life and the importance of agriculture.

The Hora Hora School community wholeheartedly embraces this event, with families and teachers working tirelessly to prepare their children's animals and projects for display. This event not only fosters a sense of togetherness but also imparts vital life lessons about sustainability, responsibility, and the significance of agriculture in their lives.

The Hora Hora School agricultural day serves as a living testament to the enduring bond between the school and its community, where traditions are upheld, knowledge is shared, and a love for the land is passed down through the generations.

​Good afternoon everyone, 


We hope you had a relaxing and family fun filled holiday. 


We will begin Cross-Country training today and every day from now on until the Rural schools Cross-Country on the 6th of September, weather permitting. We will slowly build fitness and ask that your children have appropriate footwear and clothing to run in.
 We will not be running the hill or crossing fences for at least 3 weeks. 


Hot lunch this week is free. We will be supplying hot soup and buns that were left over from our Matariki day. If your child is not likely to eat soup, please pack them a full lunch. 


Next week is Book Week with lots of fun activities centered around our favorite books and stories. As a culmination of the week we will have a book character day on Friday the 2nd of August. 
As part of this day we would like to invite grandparents or special friends, aunty, uncle or parents along to share morning tea and some reading with the children. 
More details will come next week. 


Coming home today will be the lunch order forms for this term, along with Scholastic book orders and a Safety Wise magazine.  


Sample books will be coming home at the end of this week. 


Book bags need to be returned each day for students in Tawa and Karaka. 


Please find attached some information on an informative evening for men about Building an Awesome Whanau.

 

Please find attached our Behavior Management Plan.

Planting Tomorrow
4 Jul 2024

Good afternoon everyone, 


Thank you to all that attended our Matariki Celebration this morning, it was lovely to have you all at school. 


Tomorrow the whole school will be planting on the Dallinger Farm. We will be leaving school at approximately 9:15am and returning at approximately 12:00pm.
Please ensure children have:

  1. Gumboots or closed shoes that are able to get muddy/wet
  2. Drink bottle
  3. Warm layers, as the morning will be very cool and will hopefully warm up as we plant!

 


Sample Books: We have had a hiccup with the internet and Chorus is investigating, but that means we are unable to get all of the required paperwork printed and put into the sample books. These will however go home the first week of Term 3. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. 


Nga mihi
