Year 6 Orientation Day
2026 Enrolments
On Thursday 13th November we held our orientation day for our incoming students for 2026. It was a great morning playing games together and then visiting some of our classes. Students went to Wood tech, Māori, Art and Homeroom and did some different activities. We had some year 7 students who were fantastic leaders for the groups and it was great to see everyone so excited and happy as they moved around the school. We can't wait to officially welcome them all at the beginning of next year!'
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.
SCHOOL BUS SAFETY
Moore Park Pump Track
Work on the track is underway! Matt and Ivan from Graded Earth are flat out, starting to form and compact the track, with drainage going in earlier in the week. These guys are awesome, so give them a toot and a wave if you are passing by. This work has been facilitated by Project Bruce and is being funded through our Community Led Development Partnership with the Department of Internal Affairs, with a generous contribution also from Sport Otago. Council have been super supportive and have worked hard with us in the background to make the track a reality. Also big thanks to the super positive neighbours and everyone who took part in the engagement process. The idea comes from our local young people, who wanted to see more awesome outdoor recreational facilities. Great stuff! Keep an eye out for more updates!
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.
