Do you plan to catch the bus to school this year? 

Just a reminder that from the first day back at school on 6 October, children aged 5-12 years and young people aged 13-18 years will need to pay a bus fare of $1.50. The adult fare will increase from $2 to $2.50. 

All these fares need a registered Bee Card to take advantage of discounts. 

Cash fares are still $3. 

13-18 years 

• New fare with a Bee Card is $1.50 
• Cash fare is still $3 

Adults (19+) 

• New fare is $2.50 with a Bee Card 
• Cash fare is $3 

ORC is updating fares to meet new central government funding rules. 

We invite you to pop into an ORC office or a Bee Card retailer to pick up a Bee Card, or ask your bus driver for one – and remember to register it at www.beecard.co.nz 

More information on fare changes at www.orc.govt.nz/fares

If you haven’t caught a bus before, check out information at www.orc.govt.nz/bus101. It’s a good idea to look at the bus timetables in advance and plan your route.

For up to the minute alerts on bus disruptions on specific routes on your mobile, download the Transit app or go to www.orc.govt.nz/public-transport/notifications-and-alerts.  

Paying for your bus fare

Clubs, Cultural and Sporting Activities

There are many Music, Drama, Literary and Art activities at LPHS. Students can join any of the 12 drama productions each year including musicals, dance, Shakespeare, one act plays, as well as some touring work. For the artistically inclined, there are many art competitions and yearly art exhibitions to contribute to.

The English Department supervises writing competition entries, speech and debating teams. Cultural groups like the Kapa Haka and Pacific Island performance group are also popular especially at the yearly International Concert. Youth Week held every year gives students an opportunity to perform in Karaoke, debating, compering, rock band performances and to enjoy an International Food Festival.

There are numerous opportunities for musical students, including two school choirs, several chamber music groups, an orchestra, an award-winning jazz band, and an after school rock music academy. An itinerant music programme gives students the opportunity to learn a musical instrument during school time.

There are active Robotics, Chess, Computer and Maths Clubs, as well as an enthusiastic Environmental Group.

House / Group System

Students are assigned a Group Teacher, who will look after their safety, well-being and academic progress throughout their time at school. At the beginning of each year we have a House Day to get to know new students. Each of the four Houses is made up of eight Groups and has a House Dean who takes overall responsibility for you and helps you sort any problems you have at school. House Deans and Group teachers will keep in touch with your whanau or caregivers. 

Important Dates

Our official term time school hours are 8.55 am until 3.00 pm.

Outside of these hours, we can not accept responsibility for students unless they are involved in authorised school activities.  

Lockers

Lockers are available to all students this year at a cost of $25.
