Vogeltown School Newsletter - Term 3, Week 10, 2026
30 Sep 2026

Kia ora e te whānau

It seems I was in such a hurry to get out the door on Friday that the most important message of the week wasn't sent!

Please see below for the link to last week's school newsletter.  


https://app.smore.com/n/71gh4z


It contains lots of information and dates for Term 4 - including dates for the Huatoki and Paetoki productions, and school photos.


Hope your tamariki are enjoying the holidays!

Taranaki School Production - Tickets
21 Sep 2026

Kia ora e te whānau

Thank you for your patience as we work through our new ticketing system for the production.

We are pleased to advise that as most whānau complied with our guidance around ticket purchases, we are able to release the rest of the tickets for all 3 shows.

You can order more tickets by going into Kindo and following the same instructions as previously given.  No limits apply but we do ask that you remain considerate of others seeing as space is limited. 

Tickets will be sent home with students on Tuesday.  

Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to seeing you all this week.

Kia ora e te whānau

Please see below for the link to this week's school newsletter:

Information regarding the Taranaki Production next week is in the newsletter - but we have also included it below:

To ensure we meet our fire safety obligations, seating is strictly limited to 260 audience members per performance. We understand this is a change from previous years, and may cause some inconvenience, but we appreciate your understanding.  If you are able to come to a daytime performance, rather than the evening performance, please do so.  

Ticket ordering guidelines:

How to order: Tickets can be ordered by using our Kindo Shop. Please select the Taranaki Production tab, then the performance date and time that suits you best. Add the number of tickets needed to your cart under the name of your child that is in the production. If you have multiple children in the production, please just choose one child.


Limit: Whānau can order up to 4 tickets in total. You can order, for example, 2 tickets for the matinee and 2 tickets for the evening show. Please do not over order as you will only be given a maximum of 4 tickets.


Seating: On the night, those with tickets will be able to sit anywhere.


Extra tickets: If any unallocated seats remain closer to the event, we will send out a notification so you can order more tickets.


Cost: Tickets are free of charge. However, we would appreciate a koha/donation which will be collected at the door to help offset production costs.


Ticket delivery: Printed tickets will be sent home with your child prior to the performance dates so please check bags!


Every person attending requires a ticket:  This is to ensure we do not go above our capacity.


Kindo Shop - if you do not yet have a Kindo account, please set up an account using the following link: https://shop.kindo.co.nz/app/login

 

Please note - all Huatoki and Paetoki tamariki will be viewing the production at school on Tuesday, so they will have already seen the show.

Thank you for your support in making this a wonderful event for our students.


Ngā mihi,


The VS team
