School Crossings and Parent Parking
Please set a good example to your children and use the school crossing. It has been noticed that large numbers of parents are ignoring this safety rule. Thank you to those who set a good example to your children by using the crossing.

It is illegal to park or stop on yellow lines. They are there to give clear visibility from the school crossing and make it safe.

Please do not turn into the school carpark driveway to turn around or drop off your children. Staff may need to enter and the road then becomes blocked and unsafe for all. Please do not walk through the carpark, use the footpath.


There are 3 entrances to the school. The main entrance is on Willoughby Ave. There are also entrances on Juliet Ave and Freyberg Pl. You might want to investigate one of these. Once they have been at school for a while, your children can also be taught to walk from your parked car to the school by themselves.

2016 Adidas Fun Run Fundraiser

Dear Parent/Guardian

Howick Primary School will be holding an Adidas School Fun-Run as a major fundraising event this year. The event will be held on 26th August 2016 as our annual cross country event. 

The School Fun-Run is a healthy, fun and active fundraiser that ensures we send the right message to our students about getting active, having fun and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The main focus of this event is participation. Family support is most appreciated as we encourage all students to get involved.

All students have received a Sponsorship Form to help collect sponsorship on behalf of the school. The funds raised will be put towards the new junior playground.

We ask all parents to read the Sponsorship Form and sign the front page to grant permission for their child to fundraise and participate in this event.

Students who raise just $10 or more will receive a reward for effort. We have educated students on the dangers of door knocking without adult supervision, please reiterate this at home. The best people to ask for sponsorship are people you know (e.g. friends, family, work colleagues and neighbours).

Another way to help your child reach their sponsorship goals is through online fundraising. Students raise an average of $103.38 using online fundraising, which really benefits all involved! To utilise this feature, log on to schoolfunrun.co.nz/students today!

Once fundraising is complete please help your child fill out Step 4 – How to Claim Prizes, on the back page of the Sponsorship Form.  Without this page, we are not able to claim a prize for your child. Then tear it off and return it with all money raised to the PTA Letterbox on or before 9th September 2016, student prizes will arrive shortly after.

Each year we hope to create a day of fun for the students and their families with the School Fun-Run.  We would like to welcome parents and family members to attend the School Fun-Run event day at the school on 26th August 2015 to help cheer on the students.

If you would like to volunteer and help out on the day please contact the school office at office@howickprimary.school.nz, we would love to see you at our event.

Thank you, good luck and happy fundraising!
