Home/School Communication
We endeavour to keep whanau informed through our school website, notices, facebook and school newsletters sent home with your child.
Please check your child's bag daily. Children sometimes forget to pass on information. You can contact the principal by email (principal@sunset.school.nz) or 027 2795356 or email the school office (office@sunset.school.nz).
Teachers are encouraged to keep you informed through regular class newsletters/notices of class events and happenings. Our teachers have class facebook pages that they use to share notices and the students learning experiences. We encourage you to join your child's class facebook page to keep in touch with what is happening specifically in your child's room.
- Notices are sent out via your child as required.
