Enrolments are now being accepted for 2026. You are welcome to complete an enrolment form online, or drop into the school office with a copy. Please remember, we need to take a copy your child’s birth certificate or passport to verify their identity. Enrolment Interviews: If you would like to book an enrolment interview, please email erica@tokohigh.school.nz or phone the office on 03 417 8620 to make a time. We look forward to seeing you.
Last week, three of our students graduated from the Otago Secondary Tertiary College Carpentry Level 3 Course, and one from the Police Pathways Course. Congratulations to Lochie Dunbar, Ranui Jury and Kaden Crowie who completed the Carpentry Course, doing work experience at Big River Homes in Balclutha. They have been involved in building a whare for South Otago High School which had a unique design and a lot of cultural aspects to consider. A special mention goes to Ranui (right) who also received the Tutors Award. Alec Murray completed the Police Pathways course, sadly this has been discontinued so he was fortunate to be a part of it in 2025.
SCHOOL BUS SAFETY
Students entering and exiting the bus are vulnerable to passing vehicles, and drivers must take great care when they encounter school buses. • Reduce speed to 20km/h when passing a school bus and keep an eye out for children who may walk out onto the road. • If you are dropping children off or collecting them from a bus stop, stand well back from the edge of the road and out of the way of the bus. • Wait on the same side of the road to collect your child in a rural area so they don’t have to cross.
