Information for Staff

1. On Wednesday evening we had a successful Whānau hui. Thank you Adrienne for organising this.
It was a great chance for our whānau parents to ask questions and raise both hopes and possible issues in relation to where our school wharenui will be placed moving forward.
Sophie Yarram also got to present her 'Love to Learn' student voice project that she led. If you have not had a chance to see this presentation, have a look at the presentation that represent a snapshot of across year levels and nationalities at our kura.




2. Time to focus: Behaviour in our Classrooms
If you have not had a chance to read the ERO document that came out this year on classroom behaviour, the following link is to a 10 min summary read on the findings. Findings agree that student behaviour has become worse in the last two years, and yes, there is a definite link between behaviour and student learning and achievement. Read the summary HERE.
