"Kia ora e te whānau,
In preparation for our hui next Tuesday 28th July at 5.30pm regarding proposed zoning, I have attached the zones as prepared by the Ministry of Education. 
Our proposed zone goes down as far as Cruickshank Road, out to SH2 where the boundary lies, up as far as Topaz Street in Birchville, and up in Mount Marua. 
At our hui on the 28th July, you will have the opportunity to ask questions of the Ministry of Education, and we will discuss the implications for our school going forward.
This is currently at the consultation phase. If zoning in Upper Hutt goes ahead, it will start in October 2026. It will mean that any student who is out of zone may stay at our kura, but if they had a sibling who wanted to attend here, they would need to go into the ballot in October and June of each year. 
You will also have the opportunity at our hui on Tuesday to complete a survey advising the Ministry of Education of your thoughts.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.
Ngā mihi nui, Karen Wellington, Tumuaki/Principal
