Library News
I'm one of the volunteers who open your library for you. While I was there a couple of weeks ago, I was thinking what a great repository of reading it is. I thought of all the pages of the books that had been turned by so many people over the years. Families or individuals have come in to return books and gone out with others, sometimes old books to be reread or one from the new books section. The convenience of having a library, no matter what size, in the middle of the community is so special. Come in and see for yourselves one day soon. Lyn Dowsett
Last day for books to read over Christmas and the New Year is Friday 20 December
Opening again on Wednesday 8 January 5.30-7.30
We have had our usual busy Term 4 and there are plenty of things still to happen before we finish the term on the 20th December.
One of the highlights earlier this term was the support we got from local artists and the school community when the Home and School Committee, led by our wonderful President Liz Luscombe, organised and ran a very successful Art Auction to raise money for arts programmes at the school. It was a great night and we raised over $10,000 which was a fantastic effort. We have been very lucky to have had Liz’s leadership and organisational skills over a number of years and appreciate all she has done for our school!
We had an Athletics event with other local schools in the second week of term and large numbers of senior pupils have gone on to compete at the South Zone Athletics day and the Otago Athletics Champs. Term 4 is usually a great time for Athletics but the wet weather has made it a bit of a challenge to do the athletics practice we usually mange to fit in. We are also looking forward to running our School Cross Country event this term.
Recently all classes have headed to the Art Gallery to do some great art workshops. We took senior children to the Ignition Writing and Illustrating Workshop at the Public Library and also had a class of Year 5 children head to the Portobello Marine Studies Centre where they headed out onto the harbour in the Polaris to go shark spotting. This week the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra are bringing six musicians to our school to teach the children more about their orchestra.
It is great to have a wide range of learning experiences available for our students.
Before we finish the year, I just want to acknowledge the wonderful support we have had this year from grandparents and retired people within our community, as well as our parents. We have a group of people who consistently come to school each week to help out with reading and literacy programmes. We are very grateful to our parent, grandparent and community volunteers. You make a real difference to the children’s learning.
Finally the school would like to wish everybody a happy holiday season ahead. Have a wonderful time with family and friends. Christmas Opening Hours

Royal Albatross Centre How’s the albatross viewing? It’s the season of love! Couples are reuniting, nests chosen and eggs are being laid. It’s the 100th anniversary of the first egg being laid in 1919, so a very special time to reflect of the colony’s success.
Blue Penguins Pukekura We’re having fantastic penguin viewing with well over 100 penguins each night. Some penguin couples are on their second batch of eggs and chicks so they’re all busy traipsing back and forth feeding their hungry families.
Glenfalloch Restaurant Have you come and enjoyed a glass of wine on our new deck? Strolled around the magnificent rhododendrons? Spring is blooming magnificent right now! Glenfalloch is still the top restaurant on Tripadvisor and super popular, so please remember to book.
Dunedin Wildlife Care Code Visitor numbers are increasing to our beaches so we’d like to remind you to share our Dunedin Wildlife Care Code with locals and visitors, so our precious wildlife can live undisturbed.

Kia ora ano from Te Kura Whakaohorahi, the little school with a big heart. As a full primary school, we offer a local alternative to the larger intermediate schools in town. Our seniors have a special leadership role within the school, as mentors and role models to the younger students. Our curriculum takes full advantage of our beautiful environment and local community, with sailing sessions, beach water safety lessons, participation in the Smiths Creek planting program, and overnight stays at Otakou Marae. We take part in a wide range of inter-school activities, such as Stars on Stage, Polyfest, the EPro8 Technology challenge, athletics and other sports, and never fail to be impressed by and are very proud of our students’ performance at these events.
A close partnership with Dunedin North Intermediate ensures that our senior students don’t miss out on additional opportunities that are available at larger schools, such as technology classes, electives, and a wide range of sports teams. High school principals have commented positively about the special quality of the students who come to them from Broad Bay School, and recent visitors remarked on the true feeling of love and whanau within the school. We have a great group of students who will be in years 7 and 8 here next year, and would love to welcome more.
If you would like to talk to us about options for next year, please contact us by phone (478 0706), email ([email protected]), or pop in for a chat at the Kōrero Cafe and Friday Playgroup, which run alongside each other in Room 4 every Friday morning during term time, 9am-12pm. Enjoy company, conversation, and an espresso made by the Principal! All welcome!
Lastly I recently teamed up with Constable Emily from our Youth Education Team at Macandrew Bay School. We were focusing on road safety and especially crossing the road. The kids were amazing and seemed to take everything on board. We learnt about “Sneaky Driveways” of which there are a few around Macandrew Bay.

Nga mihi, Aaron Smith 1710 Highcliff Road, Portobello Unfortunately since the last newsletter there have been a few E: [email protected] more thefts down our way. An Outboard Motor and Drop Saw were taken from Harwood, a Step Ladder from Broad Bay, the Otakou Golf Course was broken into and more recently some not so nice person or people have taken some lovely produce (jams) that Annelies makes and puts in her roadside stall. She has just started up again and this theft is very disappointing. I would like to think it is no one from here on the Peninsula. Any ideas please give me a call.

A final reminder to all those firearms owners. The amnesty will come to a close soon, so if you have any of the arms/accessories that are now illegal please organise to hand them in. Go to the Police website if you are unsure if yours are now illegal. It sets it out very clearly there. What is illegal and what isn’t. If it’s easier, come and see me and we will sort it out.

I have selected people from places you might find worth visiting at this time of year, especially if you are thinking of purchasing interesting gifts, planning a special Whanau tupu ngatahi - Families growing together celebration, or just needing time out.
