Transition to School

Uruti School has a wonderful program to transition into school.  It begins approximately 6 weeks before your preschoolers starting date.  Three weeks before you can come along with your tamariki from 9:00-11:30am, this gives them the opportunity to be able see how school operates and become familiar with routines and get to know their class members.  And the final 3 weeks thay can come for the afternoon session, starting from 11:30 until the end of the day. 

This involves all 4 year old children from the Play Centre and the Community.

Mrs Joanne Thomas and Simon Manning-Jones are the teachers and we look forward to getting to know you and your children.

Parents can stay if they wish but if your child is settled you don’t need to. 

Children cannot go on the school bus until they are enrolled at school.
