Linton Camp School

While it is important that children attend school every day, of course there are always times when your child is sick or unable to attend school and we ask that you notify us of your child’s absence and the reason (as we need to record this), so we know they are safe and not ‘lost’ on the way to school or even worse. You can report a child’s absence by; phone - 06 3258740 press 1 and leave a message the Skool Loop app emailing - office@lintoncamp.school.nz

We are starting to get quite a pile of Lost Property building up in Room 5. If your child is missing a jersey or shoes please come in to school to check the Lost Property in Room5. While older children are capable of looking in Lost Property themselves, they rarely do. Of course the best way to prevent lost property is for you to clearly label your child’s clothing and shoes with their name and it will be handed back to your child if picked up.

Harold by Archon We have all enjoyed having Tim being back in our school. He brings some much needed energy and enthusiasm, on these cold days. And of course he brings Harold!! The children are all very excited and enjoy the time they have in the caravan learning about nutrition and looking after their own wellbeing. We have learnt loads; “ Drinking water will make me grow tall.” “ In the heart we find the blood, the white blood fights all the germs.” “ We have to have a hea

Tēnā koutou katoa, We began our Uniform Review in Term 2 2021. We initially sought general feedback from our school community which had a positive response and helped us greatly with the next steps in the review process. In the past year we have been seeking alternative options to our current uniform and now we seek further feedback from our whānau. Your thoughts and feedback will be beneficial to us in making decisions that will effect our school community in the long term.
