Inglewood Primary School

Learning to think, to do, to be

Ako ki te whakaaro, ako ki te mahi, ako kia ora ai te mauri

Our Vision: To provide a teaching and learning environment where of those involved: demonstrate respect, expect the best, achieve through opportunity, communicate actively & feel good and safe

Honestly where does the time go? here we are mid term already. We are immensely proud of the majority of students who are stepping up to ensure a successful end of term is had by all - thank you all.

If you have any snippets of REACH within your home, you would like to share, please email the office and let us know, so we can celebrate also. office@inglewood.school.nz

We are working through our staffing and structure for 2021 presently and if you have a nearly five year old or know of a young human who may be coming into Inglewood Primary, we would appreciate you emailing the office with this information, so we can plan classes accordingly - thank you.

This event was a huge hit and we extend a HUGE congratulations to all the students and teachers who worked so hard to make the evening a success. Another thank you goes to all the parents, whanau and wider community who came in droves to support this initiative. The atmosphere was amazing and the crowds moved through Puke Haupapa visiting all the stalls.

An absolutely outstanding day from our 4 teams with an overall second from Rowan, Kade, Monique and Anahera.

The whole school will be leaving school at 9am approx.

After the opening at 9.45 am students will be divided into their groups and will then move to their activities to begin at 10.10 am. Each activity is 40 minutes.

Years 0-3 students will be escorted by adults over to Jubilee Park to begin their programme led by Waitoriki with the assistance of students from Inglewood High School. They will leave their bags under the trees in Jubilee Park.

Years 4 - 8 students form into Year level groups. They will then begin their programme on the main park with the following activities:

Long Jump, High Jump, Track 100m sprints, Discus, and Shot Put.

These activities will be organised by individual schools using Inglewood Athletics Club equipment. The day will conclude with relays.

On Monday 9th November William Young, Nyrelle Ritchie, Ayla Gyde and Hannah Cairns competed in the 2020 Literacy Quiz. They competed against 25 other teams from Taranaki and Whanganui regions answering questions relating to literacy. The competition was hard and the team ended up getting 20th out of 27 teams.

Full School Teaching Commences

Looking for something to do with your child from 4.30pm-6.30pm for the next 8 weeks. Bring a picnic mat, have a natter with other adults, while your child comes and plays! If you have a 5 - 12 year old - let them come and have a play in the park! We will have all sorts of equipment out that they can come and have a go with.

You just need to sign your child in, sit back and watch from your picnic mat while our Kelly Sports Taranaki coaches have gear available to play with. We really look forward to seeing you there!

Please click on the link to order directly from our school website or pop into the school office.
