Tēnā koutou e te whānau
We are launching our JUMPING JUNE kaupapa at kura tomorrow which means you can set up your profile pages and start fundraising today. This is the 3rd year that Kawakawa Primary School has participated in this kaupapa. In 2024, we raised $8000 for the NZ Heart Foundation. In 2025, we raised $5000. This year, we are aiming for $10000!!!!!
This kaupapa is about creating awareness around heart disease and helping raise funds for the NZ Heart Foundation. We have all been affected by the impacts of heart disease. We all know someone with heart problems or someone who has passed away of a heart attack, so let's all get behind our tamariki and whānau to support the kaupapa.
Our big event day is on Tuesday the 30th of June which is where we will be skipping non-stop from 9:45am-2:45pm. Whānau and community members are invited to take part in the skipping and join us to create a positive atmosphere by encouraging each other to skip for the cause but also motivate one another to be active and healthy in our day to day lives. There will also be spot prizes up for grabs on the day.
There will be prizes for the individual who raises the most money at our kura. The option to select your class on the website is an error on the administrators end, the NZ Heart Foundation has asked for it to be removed.

NK & NRR still have to fundraise for our camp that happened in term 1. Please support our classes by bringing $2 to kura on Friday and order a juicie from your kaiako. They will be delivered to your class at lunchtime. Pre-orders are available āpōpō from your kaiako if you'd like to pay early.
Those who are doing kapahaka on Friday, you can order your juicie from Whaea Sandi as she will be at the hall at 9am. Kapahaka juicies will be delivered to the hall at 12:45pm.
