Facilities
At Mosston School you can expect to find modern classrooms that are regularly updated and maintained. Our classrooms are complimented by our Discovery Centre/Library and Hall. These extra buildings allow the teachers more flexibility with their teaching programmes. All buildings are air-conditioned. Our school is divided into three hubs, junior, middle and senior. Each junior class is represented by a bird as are the middle and senior hubs.
In our Discovery Centre our library books are continually updated to ensure student interest remains high. Learning spaces are equipped with smart televisions to assist group learning. We offer free WiFi to our school community. All internet access is regulated to encourage safe use by our users. At Mosston we use eLearning as part of our learning tools. We operate a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programme for our Year 3 and up pupils. Our BYOD devices are Chromebooks, but we also use iPads throughout the school Students have access to our ultra fast fibre network. The school has invested in a school-wide sound system and for use in assemblies and in the playgrounds.
Student safety is a priority and we are fortunate to have a large off road car park which allows safe transition of children from their cars to their classrooms. There is a sun shaded area where the children will eat before heding off for a play. The administration block includes a cosy well equipped sick bay. Our school hall is a fantastic facility for many events and activities.
Our children are able to play on 3 seperate adventure playgrounds which are designed to provide different levels of challenge and provide fun for all. We have developed cycle and scooter tracks along with a pump track to encourage development of skills and are yet another way to get our children moving. Our sun shaded sandpit is a popular spot for the tamariki and our native tree zone has a raised walkway to protect the plant life. The multipurpose artificial turf is extremely popular with our tamariki. We travel to the Splash Centre for swimming lessons 12 weeks each year. You will also see tyres about the play as imaginative play is encouraged so forts are often being built.
Our caretaking team take pride in keeping our grounds and building in tip top condition. We also take every opportunity to brighten the grounds up with artworks and gardens.
