Welcome to our learning community here at Riverina School. We are a Primary School located in the heart of Pakuranga. As one of the oldest Primary Schools in the area, we have a rich history of success in the areas of sporting, academic, cultural and the arts. We are so proud of the young people that leave our school as they go on to do great things!
As the Principal, I am privileged to lead a dedicated staff and community who put learners at the heart of all we do. The children here at Riverina School are our greatest asset, and our vision, "Every Child, Every Opportunity" speaks to the potential for greatness we see in every young person that walks through our doors.
We are committed to working in partnership with parents and caregivers to continue to strive for the highest standards and offer rich, diverse learning opportunities that engage and inspire every child to realise their potential.
Ka kite anō au i a koutou,

Dear Riverina Families,
We are excited to announce that our school disco is coming up on Thursday 12th November from 1.45pm – 3.00pm!
It's time to get your dancing shoes ready for an afternoon of music, fun and lots of disco moves!
Tickets are $5 per student and can be purchased through Kindo Only. You can access by clicking the following link ( Kindo Link ) or via the shop button on your Hero home page.
Each ticket includes:
Pay It Forward!
If you would like to spread a little extra kindness, you can also purchase an additional ticket to pay forward. These tickets will be passed on to another student who may otherwise not be able to attend.
Students are welcome to bring a change of clothes to school and get changed at lunchtime if they would like to dress up for the disco.
A few important reminders:
We can't wait to see our students on the dance floor having a fantastic afternoon!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact your child's class teacher.
Let the countdown to disco time begin!

Dear Riverina Families,
We are excited to have our first Wheels Day for Term 4 this Thursday!
Students are welcome to bring their bikes or scooters to school to enjoy some time on our bike track with their class. Please remember that a helmet is essential for anyone wishing to participate.
We will be continuing with the opt-out permission system that we trialled last term. This means parents do not need to sign a paper permission slip. All students who bring their wheels will be able to participate unless parents have emailed their child's class teacher to let them know they do not wish their child to take part.
We look forward to seeing lots of wheels out on the track on Thursday.
