Late arrival to school

If students arrive to class after 8.55am, they (or their parents) 
MUST sign in at the office.
This is a ministry requirement so attendances can be confirmed, and is important for the safety of students.​​
Absences
If a student is going to be absent, please contact the school office on
​04 3896758 preferably before 8:30am - leave a message on the absence line.
For extended periods of leave, please email a letter of explanation to office@brooklynprimary.school.nz and copy your child's teacher in.​
Road Patrol
Year 7 children provide road patrol services at the crossing outside the top school gate on Washington Ave between 8.30am and 8.55am and 2.55pm and 3.10pm each school day. The children are supported by a teacher, parent or caregiver at the location. We rely on volunteers from the school community to help with this, so if you are able to help please contact Karen Overell - karen.overell@brooklynprimary.school.nz
School Apparel
A range of school apparel is available for purchase from the school office. Hats and t-shirts are available year round, while hoodies are available at advertised times during the year.
