Progress Discussions Monday 20th March

Sun Mar 19 02:50pm

School is closed for instruction. We look forward to seeing you and your child tomorrow for your progress discussion appointment.


Please come to the meeting on time with your child. The classroom teacher will facilitate the discussion but your child will do a lot of the talking. As a parent, you can prompt to support your child, enjoy the opportunity to see your child in his/her learning environment, and celebrate your child’s progress to date.


If you have not yet made an appointment, please visit www.schoolinterviews.co.nz/code, and enter the event code r2mez.

If you are yet to book a discussion please follow the guide sent out or contact us directly.

Please book your Progress Discussions!

Mon Mar 13 02:28pm

Parent-teacher-student ‘Progress Discussions’ will be held on Monday 20th March from 9am to 6pm, which is a Teacher Only Day. Interviews can be booked with your child’s classroom teacher and also their Pathways teacher. There are two options being offered: an in-person interview or a Google Meet video call.


To book your interviews, go to www.schoolinterviews.co.nz/code, and enter the event code r2mez.


We encourage you to make appointments with both your child’s classroom teacher as well as their Pathways teacher as each teacher will have different information, perspectives, and positives to share. You will need to click on ‘add another booking’ to do this, once you have made an initial booking.

Teacher’s strike Thursday 16th March

Fri Mar 10 02:10pm

Dear parents/ caregivers,


On Thursday, 16 March 2023 all members covered by the PTCA or PPCA will be on strike from 7am until 7 pm. This means that schools across Aotearoa NZ will be closed.


Members have voted to strike because our tamariki deserve a quality education. Unfortunately, the funding for our schools is not enough for Principals and teachers to consistently provide the support all our students need, in order to achieve the intended engagement and progress in their learning.


More resourcing would also attract and retain people in the education sector, by ensuring that teaching is recognised as a valued and attractive profession.


We recognise that this action is inconvenient and that there has been minimal notice. Please be assured that the action our union is taking is for the long-term benefit to the quality of education being provided for all students in Aotearoa NZ.


Yours faithfully,


Garry de Thierry


Principal
