Information for Staff

1. Thank you for your feedback on how you would like the PLG groups set up for our late starts this year. The majority of staff have stated that they would like one theme to work on throughout the year.
The most common areas that you have identified wanting to work with are:

• Māori succeeding as Māori
• Pacific Learners
• Cross curricular collaboration
• Accelerated Learning
• Wellbeing 
• Leadership

Now that we have established the common themes - please fill in the sign up sheet.

2. It may be only halfway through Term 1 but.......

3. This year we have been given funding to be part of the Accelerated Literacy and Numeracy programs. A couple of resources have started to filter through, the first is a great read, with tips on different strategies to use in your classrooms/programs for those students who are requiring extra support: "Learning in the fast lane" (2014) by  Suzi Rollins. 

4. Polyfest - to add to your diary!
