Tēnā Koutou,
My name is Troy Anderson and I'm proud to lead the team here at Rongotea School. We are a rural school of 155 pupils in the heart of the Manawatu. We have eight amazing classrooms and a wonderful supportive community, an active Board of Trustees and a hard working PTA.
If you're considering us as a school for your child, please drop by, email me at principal@rongotea.school.nz or phone 06 324 8614.
Here at Rongotea School, we are very proud of the fantastic facilities we have. We have plenty of space to run around, play rugby, cricket, swim in our school pool, play tennis, bike on our bike track, exercise on our fitness track or play on our playgrounds.
We are currently focusing on developing a localised curriculum, this curriculum is developed to suit all learners at Rongotea School.
We have co-constructed classrooms, children setting student learning goals and next learning steps. It's important that each student knows what their learning goal is and what they can do to become successful life long learners.

Kia ora Rongotea School whānau!
The end of the year is rapidly approaching but the world of fundraising never stops! This Friday, as usual, we have a stall at the Rongotea Fireworks. We will be barbecuing up a storm along with glow items, snacks and toasties. If the event is anything like last year, we will be run off our feet so are looking for some more helpers to take some of the pressure off. If you think you have some time to spare we would really appreciate a hand. Our stall will be open from 5pm until the fireworks end and any help would be awesome. PLEASE let us know if you are willing to help for an hour or more.
Our other event we are looking towards is the Waitangi Day Gala. We are once again after small, $2 donations for our sand trailer. Something that may catch your eye while you're Christmas shopping maybe? These can cater for kids of all ages (Funnily enough, noodle cups were a hit with the teens this year) These donations can be dropped off into a box that will be sitting in the office. We are also happy to take donations if you'd like us to do the shopping for you. Funds from these events go to school programmes like Lexia, camps, fun days and more so every bit helps to support our amazing tamariki.
Thanks guys! Alisha 0225347997

Afternoon everyone,
Tomorrow's weather looks amazing for our school Athletics day.
I am still in need of another 4 people to help out time keeping and one person to run shot put. If you are able to help out please let me know ASAP on jenna.mcdonald@rongotea.school.nz
Remember kids in house colours tomorrow with lots of food/drink and suncream.
Thanks
Jenna
