Parent Info

School Facilities

Ouruhia is a 4 teacher school with children from Yr 0/1 - Yr 8. A new double classroom block was built in 2002 and a 5th classroom was established in 2008.
In 2010 a new administration block was built and the old administration block was converted to a library. The whole school has wireless connectivity, and a fibre connection to the internet managed by N4L (Ministry Of Education funded).
Library
Ouruhia has an up-to-date, wide ranging collection of book and non-book resources to meet the recreational and learning needs of the children.  The library collection is computerised with issues, returns and stock-takes being done with bar-code readers. Children are encouraged to read and regularly borrow books. Children can borrow 2 books at a time for a period of 2 weeks. Please respect the value of the books taken home and encourage their being both read and cared for. 
A charge is made for lost and damaged books.
Swimming Pool
We believe that all kiwi kids need to learn to swim. Ouruhia is one of the few schools which still has its own pool. We value the ability to have daily swimming lessons on-site during February, and we supplement these lessons with sponsored lessons at Kaiapoi Aquatic Centre before the Christmas break. Families and members of the community may use the solar-heated pool outside of school hours.  For both safety and protection of the facility certain regulations apply, and the gate is kept locked.  Adults may apply to the school for a key for a season.  They must agree to comply with regulations and children may only enter outside of school hours when accompanied by an adult. (over 18 years) The fee is set each season by the B.O.T.
