Learning Conferences

Learning Conferences are an important part of growing the home/school partnership, so we encourage you all to come along and learn about your child’s goals, aspirations, progress and achievement.

Teacher-Parent-Student conferences will be held on Tuesday 17th October and Wednesday 18th October. Tuesday 17th October will be a half-day. The school will close at 12:30 p.m., with conferences beginning at 1 p.m. To book your child's learning conference, please go to the School Interviews websitewww.schoolinterviews.co.nz and enter the code gy4ae

Each conference will be held at school, in your child's classroom. However, if you prefer to have a phone conversation then please book in on the website and let your child's/children's teacher know via Seesaw, that you prefer this option.
