Nelson Central School


Tēnā koutou ngā whānau o Te Kura Pokapū o Whakatū,

A massive thank you to everyone for your support of our teachers on Wednesday as they attended their union meeting. We wait now for the outcome of the vote as to whether the offer is accepted or not, and what further action may be taken. We recognise the short notice given and really appreciate your adaptability through this disruption.

Enjoy your long weekend
