Our Aspirations

30 Mar 2026

Dear Parents and Whānau,

As the saying goes, you can’t beat a good autumn downpour—but you can certainly reschedule around it! Since the weather wasn't exactly on our side last Friday, we have moved our school assembly to a new slot this week.

Assembly Details
When: This Thursday, April 2
Time: 2:30 PM
Where: Coroglen School

We are especially excited to have our Year 3 through Year 8 students joining us. They will be arriving back from their "Great Overnight Escape" at Hot Water Beach just in time to share some of their camp highlights and rejoin the school community.

 
Easter Raffle Update
A massive thank you to all the parents and whānau who contributed items or sold tickets for our Easter Raffle. Your generosity ensures these extra-curricular experiences remain possible for our tamariki.

We will be drawing the lucky winners during the assembly this Thursday. Best of luck to everyone—we’ve got our fingers crossed for you!

We look forward to seeing you there for a great afternoon of celebration.

Warm regards,

The School Team

Kia ora whānau,

In the first week back after the school holidays, we have a scheduled visit to the museum to learn about ANZAC Day. This is a special opportunity for our students to honour those who fought bravely for our country and those they protected.

Trip Details:
Date: Wednesday 22nd April
Junior Session: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Senior Session: 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
Departure: We (Junior and senior students) aim to leave school by 12:30 pm.

Important Information:
Because the Junior session ends at 2:00 pm, our Junior students will finish school early that day.

Transport & Parent Help:
To make this trip possible, we need your support with transport. As per our usual safety requirements, any younger students travelling in private vehicles must provide their own booster seat.
If you are available to assist with transportation, please let us know within the next two weeks so we can finalise arrangements. Please email hope@coroglen.school.nz directly if you can help with transport.

Thank you for your ongoing support of our kura and for helping us create these meaningful learning experiences for our tamariki.

Ngā mihi,
Coroglen School staff

Kia ora te whānau o Coroglen School,

 

The Board has been working hard to develop a new 3-Year Strategic Plan (2026–2028) to guide our school forward. We are excited about the direction we are heading, but we need your voice to ensure this plan truly reflects the aspirations of our community.

 

Our Proposed Strategic Goals: We have identified three key areas to focus on over the next three years:

Curriculum Excellence & Capability: Implementing the new New Zealand Curriculum while keeping our unique "Coroglen" identity at the heart of learning.

Thriving Learners & Equity: Using better assessment and reporting systems to partner with you in your child’s learning journey.

Strengthening Student Attendance: Building a culture where every child is present, engaged, and ready to learn.

 

We Need Your Feedback Does this sound like the right direction for our tamariki? Are there other priorities you think we should consider?

Please take a moment to review the draft plan https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cMyyx9VQ3Sk7asjIExbk2CA_O6COBsUtIO50v8kAHHg/edit?tab=t.0

 

If you have any feedback, questions, or ideas, please email our Principal, Karlos Bosson, at principal@coroglen.school.nz.

Your input is invaluable in helping us create the best possible environment for our children.

 

Ngā mihi nui,

The Coroglen School Board
