Parent/Whānau Survey: Building strong partnerships with our community

The Board and school leadership team are very happy with the results of the survey and are extremely grateful to the school community for taking the time to complete it. The 67% response rate is much higher than a school would generally expect and is reflective of the interest/support of our parents.
