WELCOME BACK!
We look forward to welcoming back students from next week. Please see start dates.
An important email was sent home this afternoon (Friday) about Admin Day. Parents/Caregivers are asked to make appointments with their child’s Learning Advisor via instructions on the email. Returning students will meet their Learning Advisor via a GoogleMEET appointment on Admin Day. Only Year 7 students, and other new students, can make appointments to meet in person at school.

Congratulations to Harmann Mahey (9W2), who won 2nd prize in the University of Canterbury Law School Essay Competition, under the question category – Should we continue to keep our borders closed to try and prevent the spread of Covid-19? The competition was open to secondary school students across the country. This is a tremendous achievement and a testament to Harmann’s hard work and skill.
Jennifer Sun (7M1) will represent Aotearoa in the 1st Chinese Bridge Chinese Show for foreign primary school students. Only two students were selected across New Zealand and Jennifer is one of them! The show will take place online on 23 November. We wish Jennifer all the best.
Gumboot Friday is here!
Staff and students are supporting this fun way of bringing attention to the mental health challenges some of our nation’s children are facing and to live our value of awhinatanga/compassion. Here we see the Executive Council and Mr Morrison sporting their gumboots.
