The 2022 school year has now come to an end and we thank those many families who have supported our kura takawaenga during these past twelve months. For the parents/caregivers of the MIS cohort for 2023, we request your assistance in the following areas:


  • Please encourage and expect your child to become fully involved in all that Masterton Intermediate has to offer.


  • Please support our decision made in November this year to not allow students to bring cell phones to our school.


  • Please check carefully with your child if they are talking to you about negative incidents that may have occurred during their day at school and make sure that they have included what part they may have played in them.


  • Please communicate with your child’s class teacher in the first instance if there are any issues that you wish to discuss.


  • Please consider the role of coaching for one of our teams in the 21 sports codes that we will be providing for our students.
