A notice to our school community . . .
An email has been sent home regarding the 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 taking place on 𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓.
Following a breakdown in the bargaining process between the PPTA and Ministry of Education, PPTA Te Wehengarua members covered by the Secondary Teachers’ Collective Agreement (“STCA”) have voted to take strike action.
The school does not have sufficient staff to safely remain open for instruction on that day. Therefore, teachers who are not PPTA members will supervise students on site who cannot be supervised at home. If your child/ren cannot be supervised at home on Wednesday 20th August, please email the Whānau Assistant, as below, by Monday 18th August, 2025.
If this request is not received, it is understood that the parent/caregiver will take responsibility for the supervision of their child/ren.

Our annual conference took place earlier this week with students attending from Ormiston Junior College, Rototuna Junior High School, Sancta Maria College, Albany Junior High School, and of course MHJC.
This conference is always a highlight for the young, aspiring leaders from all five schools. We wish to thank those schools who attended and the staff that supported this conference.
MHJC’s math student extraordinaire, Japnaam, was live on TVNZ’s ‘Breakfast ‘this morning.
She also recently placed first in the finals of the SIP Abacus ANZ Prodigy Competition, where 250+ children competed across Australia and New Zealand. She was presented the award by Hon David Seymour, Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand. She will be travelling to India to represent New Zealand later this year in the International Prodigy Competition.
Congratulations on an amazing achievement Japnaam.
It has been a fantastic day in the capital for Ms Martin’s ‘governance’ field trip with Year 9 Ngahere students! Students observed parliament in session and attended question time with the Prime Minister on a range of issues before having a guided tour of Te Papa. ✈️
What an amazing day in Wellington!
