Welcome to St Leo’s Catholic School
We pride ourselves on being a small, family orientated school with small class sizes and experienced and passionate teachers.

We aim to educate the whole child – mind, body and spirit – promoting both excellence and integrity in all our students.
We are not zoned so all enrolments are welcome.

4 Nov 2026

Dear Parents, 

We are excited to share that our school Kapa Haka rōpū has been invited to perform at the Love Your Maunga ki Takarunga Community Day!

This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to showcase their learning, represent our school, and celebrate the cultural heritage and restoration of Takarunga / Mount Victoria.

Important Performance & Attendance Notice:
To ensure a strong performance, we need a minimum number of students participating. If we do not have enough children able to attend, our rōpū will unfortunately be unable to perform, and the performance slot will be opened up to other schools in the area.

Event Details:
• Date: Saturday, 28 November
• Time: Starts at 11:00 AM (exact performance time to be confirmed)
• Location: Takarunga / Mount Victoria
• RSVP Deadline: Please let us know by this Friday, 6 November, if you can bring your child to participate.

Event Highlights:
• School Kapa Haka performance
• Interactive Kēmu Māori (traditional games) & Kids' Zone
• Cultural performances, live entertainment, and market stalls
• Guided activities around conservation and mātauranga Māori

Please reply to confirm whether your child will be able to attend and perform so we can finalise our numbers.

Other notices

If you have items of good quality clothing, toys, bric a brac and books for the fair these can now be delivered to the office during school hours.
Bigger items can be dropped off the week of the fair as we don't have access to the hall until then.


Fair dollars will go on sale from Monday.  These are booklets of 12 x $1 that you can give to your children so they don't have to carry cash around on the day.  These are $10 each so you get $2 free.  The only stalls that won't accept these are outside agencies.


This year for the Christmas parade we will be combining with the local churches.  If you child would like to be on the float as an angel, shepherd or something nativity related please let us know.


We are still looking for a face painter for the fair so if you know of anyone that could help us out please let us know.
There are still some spaces left on stalls that need filling so if you haven't signed up yet we would appreciate hearing from you.

 


Kind regards
