To have the self-confidence to make a difference to my world.

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. We also provide programmes with a local flavour focussing on the environment, history, and Outdoor Education.

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.

Rural Schools Cross Country

5 Sep 2024

Good afternoon everyone,

Rural Schools Cross Country is on tomorrow at the Karapiro Domain.

Please ensure the children are at school by 8:45am at the latest, so they have enough time to get their school shirts on.

Please be aware that Karapiro School has asked us as part of their organisation of the day, to write on each child's left hand in a black sharpie, their age. If they are placegetters they will get their place written on their right hand with a red sharpie.
If you do not want your child to have anything written on their hands, please let us know today.

If your child requires a car seat, please bring this to school tomorrow morning.

Please apply sunscreen before the children come to school. We will have some with us to re- apply if necessary.

Thank you to those parents that have offered to transport. We really appreciate it.

Please find attached the schedule for the day.

Children must bring:
Shoes are compulsory, No shoes No run
Water bottle
Enough food to sustain them
Clothing to suit all weather
Sun hat and rain jacket

Also there will be baking and some food and drinks sold on the day, so if you wish, please send your child/ren with some money.

Baking!

4 Sep 2024

Good afternoon everyone,

The PTA would really appreciate it if every family could do a batch of baking to sell at Rural Schools Cross Country. This is a great way to raise money to help our little school.

Please have these to the office Thursday morning.

Thank you!
