There are numerous ways of staying up to date with the school events;
Newsletter
Our School newsletter comes out fortnightly on a Friday. They are also posted on the our school website.
Website
This holds current and long term information - it is the A-Z of the school.
Our Facebook page is a way to keep our local and school community up to date, and for last minute information spreading. It is also used to celebrate the many things happening in the school in a more real-time format. We also have a closed Facebook group just for sharing things amongst the Kaipaki School parents. You can request access to the group by searching for Kaipaki School Parents or go to the main facebook page, click on Groups and request access to the Kaipaki School Parents group.

Skool Loop App
We use an app called Skool Loop as a way of sending notices and information to our families direct to their phone or device. This can be found on the Play Store or Apple store. Download the app, open it up and search for Kaipaki School. Once notices are sent out you will receive a notification direct to your phone or device.
The app will give you access to the school calendar, school contact details and latest newsletter. You'll also be able to sign permission forms, send absentee messages and book Student Conferences.
Class Dojo
Year 1 -6 Classrooms are using Class Dojo as a platform to communicate with parents/caregivers; they can instantly share updates and photos from class of all the amazing learning and events happening.
Class Dojo is a simple free app that you can use on any device. Please note that Class Dojo may ask you to upgrade but this is not necessary.
Please request an invite from your child's teacher.
We try to cover all bases, so in addition to the above you will also receive emails from the school. Please ensure we have the most up to date contact details for you. If you have any questions please contact Mandy in the school office on 07 823 6653 or email office@kaipaki.school.nz
