THANK YOU!
Upcoming Teachers’ strike
The NZEI Teachers Union has informed us about the impact of its rolling regional full strikes, as they affect our school, during the week 20th October (Week 3 of Term 4). The union has advised our board that its member teachers at our school will be taking full strike action on Thursday 23rd of October. The board has carefully considered the availability of non-union teaching staff, and unfortunately decided that we can’t provide normal instruction during the strike so the school will officially be closed on Thursday 23rd of October.
We know that this is inconvenient for parents and students alike. Please be assured that student safety is our main concern. Thank you for your understanding. Please contact Anna Hagan if you have any queries relating to the impact the industrial actions noted above.
Matt Avery, Presiding Member
Hiwinui School Board of Trustees

We have 13 teams playing across 4 different sporting codes, and have a few Awahou School students joining our players to complete the teams. We look forward to hearing how Energised you all are representing our school with Awhi & respect. Have a wonderful season of sport!
All teams are required to wear their purple sports top, black shorts/tights and suitable footwear for the sport. Please remember any shin guards & month guards if these are required for your sport. If you need a purple sports top, please see the office.
All players should have been contacted by their team coach/manager as they are now the first point of contact, and will send out the weekly draws direct to you.
Any sports games effected by the upcoming Year 5/6 Camp have had the sports organisations notified and your coaches will let you know what the plan is for Week 4, as we have a few Year 4s in some of the Year 5/6 teams.
