Te Mata School Families
Welcome to the Te Mata Home & School Committee Neighbourly page!
Are you a Te Mata School family? If you are, you might like you to join us.
The committee is a group of volunteer parents who organise fundraising for the school.
Each year, the Committee fundraises around $40,000, of which $10,000 goes towards ICT, and the rest is put towards various projects or equipment such as playground matting, sports uniforms and equipment, class room wet weather games or books for the library.
The fundraisers range from the weekly 'Friday Lunch Treat', to selling second hand uniforms, new beanies and umbrellas. In 2014, the Read-a-thon raised almost $12,000. 2015's Te Mata Cookbook was a visual feast! In 2016 we raised $20,000 from the Adidas Fun Run! How much can you help us raise this year?
We are always looking for people to get involved and there are many ways to help - from joining the Committee, volunteering at events or simply being a ‘friend of the committee’ who we can call upon when we simply need more manpower.
The Home and School Committee meetings are typically held in about one Tuesday a month in the staffroom at 7.30pm. Check Facebook or the Te Mata Home & School notice board for an update on the next meeting.
If you are interested in finding out more, contact our President, Fiona Charlton fionacharlton@hotmail.com 021-0611727 or just ask at the office, the fantastic staff there can point you in our direction.
