Glenorchy School

Glenorchy School is a small, remote school situated at the head of Lake Wakatipu and is central to the community.

The families of our children are diverse in their economic status and their occupations. We work to provide our children with a positive, quality learning environment in which they are secure and successful. Glenorchy School values the individual.

Everyone working and learning within this environment is important.

To support this, we are kindly asking parents to consider collecting their children at 12:30pm if possible. A small number of staff will remain on site to provide supervision for students who are unable to be collected early. Please be assured that children who need to remain at school will continue to be cared for.

Please email Gorettie by 9:00am on Monday 25 August to let her know if you will collect your children or if they will need supervision for the afternoon. Thank you.
