Fruit in Schools (FIS) encourages children to eat more fruit and vegetables and to adopt healthier lifestyles. Through this programme, the Ministry of Health is aiming for a jump-start to healthy eating and lifestyle choices by reaching children in regions of high social and health need.

A Walking School Bus is similar to a normal school bus except children walk to and/or from school along a designated route, under the supervision of adult volunteers (often parents), who act as the Walking School Bus driver.
Walking School Buses reduce the number of cars on the road, making our environment safer and cleaner, and they provide exercise for children in a fun and social way.
This team is made up of WRS staff and parent volunteers. Anyone can be part of FOTS, however it is overseen by the Principal. The team’s main focus is to provide resources for our learners that will enhance their learning or learning space. This is done mostly through community engagement, funding applications and fundraising.
Kids Can partner with schools all over New Zealand including Wymondley Road Primary School to provide kids with the basics such as food, clothing and hygiene products.
Duffy Books in Homes gifts students brand new books to over 100,000 New Zealand three times a year. We have Duffy Role models visit us and they tell the kids “It’s Cool to Read and Cool to Achieve” and make a connection between success and reading.
