Te Kura Summer School

Students Needing More Level 3 Credits

Year 13 students will be emailed an information sheet on options available if they just miss gaining UE in the coming weeks. Students can also contact Te Kura directly.

School Leavers Toolkit

As we near the end of the year and the end of secondary school for some of our senior students, the School Leavers' Toolkit website created by the Ministry of Education is a great place to find out more about life outside of school. There’s great information about how to find jobs, further study, how to manage your finances or what to do if you are considering leaving home. It’s a really useful resource for students moving on and their families.
