Senior Prize Giving and end of year events 2021

Senior Leadership Team GHS —

In order to meet the Ministry of Education guidelines around gatherings and general public health advice we have decided to hold year level prize giving ceremonies separately. We feel this is a prudent way to celebrate student’s achievements while trying to minimise large gatherings. Unfortunately, this will mean we cannot invite parents, whānau and other guests to attend. These celebrations will be for students and their scheduled teachers only. These prize givings will celebrate both school achievements and those of the Trade Academy.

Year 11 - Tuesday 16 November
Coxon Hall | 12:25pm - 1:25pm 

All Year 11 students will attend as we celebrate the achievements of the group. At the conclusion of the event Year 11 students will be free to go home, or go to the library during period 5 if they need to wait for buses. We are arranging for the event to be streamed live and will provide more information closer to the time about how this can be viewed.

Year 12 - Tuesday 16 November
Coxon Hall | 2:05pm-3:05pm

All Year 12 students will attend as we celebrate the achievements of the group. We are arranging for the event to be streamed live and will provide more information closer to the time about how this can be viewed.

Y13 - Tuesday 16 November
Coxon Hall | 5.30pm

As we are not able to hold the Leavers dinner due to Covid, this will be an opportunity to celebrate our fantastic Y13 students. We will have tables set up with finger food and drinks and the Y13 students will play their gratitude video and receive their prizes. They will then leave as a group like we normally do for their final assembly. This idea was suggested by our student leaders and we appreciate their input.

Year 13s last day celebrations - Wednesday 17th November

Students will attend Period 1 and 2 classes followed by the water fight on the field at 11.30am. We will then have a BBQ in the technology block and students will be able to leave after lunch.
