Kia ora Mangatangi School whānau,

This is a reminder that following the formal strike notification from NZEI Te Riu Roa, Mangatangi School will be closed tomorrow (Thursday 23rd October) due to nationwide industrial action.

Thank you for your understanding and support as teachers, principals and education staff take this action to advocate for better conditions and support across the education sector. 

Great news everyone, our pool is open and keys are now available to purchase! 

Thank you for your patience while we were getting everything set up...

The costs are the same as last year, $100 if you have a student at Mangatangi School or $150 for any community members.

Happy swimming!

This is a message from the Dental Nurses:

Kia ora

Our Mobile Dental Unit will be visiting Mangatangi School in October. Children have regular dental checks to ensure their teeth and gums are healthy. It is free for 0 to 17 year olds.

We will begin inviting students from Mangatangi School for dental appointments from 7th October. If we have consent on file to see your child we will invite them over from class. You will receive a text message with the time of your child’s appointment. Sometimes we will have spots in the day where we can collect children from class and you may not get a text reminder. If you're not ok with this, call us to book an appointment. Parents and guardians are very important. You are most welcome to attend with your child. This way we can let you know what’s happening with your child’s teeth and mouth, tell you about the latest tips for a healthy smile and plan any additional care that may be required.

To change the appointment time, please phone us direct on 021 356 294, call 0800 TALK TEETH, or simply pop in to see us when you’re passing.

Feel free to make contact to book in your pre-schoolers as well.

Check-up appointments take about 20 minutes.

If you do not attend the appointment, please be sure to check your child’s bag regularly for any dental notices.

If we do not have consent on file we will send a dental consent form home for you to fill in and return to school.  

Children without consent will NOT be seen.

We look forward to seeing your children.
