Additional Information

Change of Address

Please let us know if your address or phone number changes. It is vital that we know how to contact you in case your child gets sick or injured at school. You can e-mail changes to admin@newton.school.nz

Parent Helpers

We always welcome help from parents - and grandparents and friends. In the past volunteers have contributed to the school by helping with the library, hearing children read, taking cultural groups, repairing broken windows, making cushions, cooking food and so on.

If you want to help, please do not be shy. Everyone has talents that can help with the education of our children.

Inclusion

We have a strong belief in the right of all children to attend school. In line with this belief some classes contain a child with physical, emotional or intellectual challenges. All these children have something special to offer their classmates.

We believe this process encourages children to look at their inappropriate behaviour and make positive choices and decisions.

We want parents involved if concerns arise to enable a partnership working for the child.

Complaints

Please address all complaints/concerns to your child's teacher in the first instance. If you do not feel resolution after this please contact the Principal.

All general complaints outside of your child's teaching and learning should be addressed to the Principal.

Conclusion

We want your children to be happy at Newton Central and we want them to learn as much as they can as fast as they can.

If we are worried about your child's work or behaviour, we will contact you. If you are worried, please contact us.
