BOT Strategic Planning for 2024 & 2025
Our OPS BOT completed our Strategic Plan (big plan for 2024-2025) in Term 1 2024. We asked whānau for your ideas back in 2023. We wanted to make sure your voices are heard as part of our planning.
This plan, called the "Strategic Plan," will guide us in making OPS the best it can be for all our students (ākonga). We're using everyone's input, plus info from teachers, experts, and the Ministry of Education.
Using the completed Strategic Plan 2024-2025 we developed an " 2024 Annual Implementation Plan" which shows exactly how we'll make those goals happen.

There's always more to do than we can fit in one plan, but we're always working to make OPS even better.
Here are some of the main things we'll be focusing on in the next two years (2024 - 2025).

OPS ‘We CARE Values’
‘We CARE’ has been a well known concept at Onehunga Primary School for over a decade. We use it in our everyday language with ākonga (learners), and seeing these values in action is one of the things which makes our school very special.
While most ākonga are able to explain what each letter means, our aim is for all of our ākonga to also be able to give examples of how we use it at school and examples of when they have used it.
Collaboration - learning and working together
Act - safely and responsibly
Respect - people, places and things
Empathy - walking in someone else's shoes
