Year 8 Transition this week

Tanya Clegg —

Thank you to the team who presented at the Y8 evening last week.

The Te Ara Tika students are in this week on Wednesday. It is their first full day on site. They are spending most of the day with Quentin in Hard Materials, but will be coming to their ako classes with you period 4. If you have one of these students in your ako in 2024, you'll have an email from Tanya on Monday. Just welcome them in, and get them participating in the decorations with your class. At the end of ako, please bring them back to the library seminar room. 

On Thursday, some of the team from pastoral, learning support and hauora will be doing catch up interviews based in and around the reception/cafe area.

Also this week the Y8 Māori welcome is on Tuesday, and the Pasifika welcome is Wednesday. 

Thank you to all the staff who organise, attend and support these Y8 events. They are so important to transitioning your young people into our kura successfully.
