Kia ora neighbours. The only decile one school on the North Shore has reopened after a $19.5 million rebuild.

Onepoto Primary in Northcote was given $19.5 million for a total rebuild in May 2018, due to the poor and neglected condition of its classrooms – which included leaks.

The rebuild also increased the school’s capacity to around 385 students in anticipation of Kāinga Ora’s Northcote Development of 1600 terraced homes, including a third each of state, KiwiBuild and open market homes.

Principal of three years Danielle Latoa-Levi said the school was in crisis prior to the rebuild and there had been doubt the school would reopen at all.

Now, the school has four modern teaching “studios” – equal to 16 classrooms and the roll is expected to reach 80 students next week.

Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.

Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽

Safe H2O Auckland are now operating in your area. The Safe H2O process retains and purifies your precious water, meaning there is no requirement to purchase replacement water.

The mobile unit is equipped with state-of-the-art nano-filtration. Tank sediment is vacuumed from the bottom of the tank and the balance of the water is cycled through the system removing pesticides and other contaminants to make your drinking water safe. The purified water is returned to the tank ready for use.

For more detailed information about our process please visit www.safeh2o.co.nz

The Ministry of Health recommends water tanks are inspected and cleaned annually. Call Hamish on 027 2766950 or email auckland@safeh2o.co.nz for pricing & more information or to book a tank clean.
