Mid term update
Wairarapa College 7 June 2022
Principal update
Thank you to all our whānau who attended parent teacher interviews. It was great to welcome so many of you on to our school grounds to talk through students’ learning with parents in person. If you did not attend please feel free to contact our staff at any time if you have questions about your child’s learning.
We are experiencing an increase in the number of students away due to illness, in particular the flu. Please see below winter illness advice from the regional DHB. Students can continue to learn and catch up via TEAMs or by talking with their teachers on their return. Our academic prefects have also started an academic mentoring programme for all students. If you feel your child needs further support please do no hesitate to contact their whānau teacher or Dean.
Our Year 9 and 10 students’ second semester starts on 27 June. Students can access their new courses on Kamar or through their whānau teachers. I continue to welcome any feedback on the changes we have made.
Please see the notice below regarding School Board of Trustee Parent Elections. Please contact me if you would like more information or to meet to discuss further. Nomination details will be shared next month.
I would like to invite you to celebrate Matariki with kapa haka, kōrero and kai on June 21. Please see the invitation below.
As always your feedback is welcome by email: office@waicol.nz.
Ngā mihi,
