Welcome back for another exciting school term at Casebrook Intermediate!

Christine Gillard —

I trust your children have had a restful two weeks, and they have come back recharged for another action packed term.

The start of Term 3 will be a busy one for Casebrook Intermediate, with our annual school Open Night fast approaching on Wednesday 3rd August from 6.30pm to 8.30pm. This is an important and exciting opportunity for our teachers, staff and students, to showcase all our academic, sporting, cultural, and performing arts opportunities we offer for our potential Year 7 students of 2017.

Choosing an Intermediate School is a big decision for many parents and students, and we believe our Casebrook Open Night will demonstrate our commitment to our students, and the positive way in which our students embrace all that is Casebrook Intermediate. As current parents of students at Casebrook, we would value your support in ‘spreading the word’ about yours and your childrens’ experiences at our school. Feel free yourself, to come along next week and be a part of the ‘buzz’.

At our end of term Celebration Assembly on 8th August, we proudly acknowledged the many students who earned their Casebrook Challenge Gold Badge. Our Casebrook Challenge is just one of those programmes which makes our school unique. Every Celebration Assembly we are always thrilled with how many students have embraced the challenge, often with amazing individual results that strongly demonstrate our school values of EXCELLENCE (PANEKIRETANGA), PERSEVERANCE (HIRINGA), as a Board, we RESPECT (WHAKAUTE) the efforts and the results you achieve.

Finally, on behalf of our School Board, I’d like to wish our teachers, staff, and students a great Term 3. Once again, I would like to thank the PTA and all parents who actively support Casebrook Intermediate. Your effort and engagement are strongly appreciated, and make a big difference to the experiences our students participate in.

Our Board of Trustees are looking forward to seeing some of you next week at our Open Night!

Best regards

Rhys Williams – Board Chair
