Year 9 Deans' Report
A warm welcome to all our new Year 9 ākonga.
Kia ora koutou, malo e lelei, talofa lava, namaste and kumusta to our Year 9 new and returning whānau.
We are excited to be starting our first full year at our new kura and to welcome many new families to our Te Aratai whānau. Most ākonga are settling into their new learning spaces quickly and are demonstrating our uara of Manaakitanga, Whanaungatanga, Rangatiratanga and Turangawaewae.
We have an amazing team of kaiārahi supporting our ākonga this year and they are:
9FEE - Edie Feehan fee@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9CAM - Caitlin Campbell cam@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9FOS - Chris Foster fos@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9EPO - Emma Powell epo@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9KYL - Scott Kyle kyl@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9KEN - Marie Kennedy-Benns ken@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9SNG - Neema Singh sng@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9KGU - Kath Gunn kgu@linwoodcollege.school.nz
9FPE - Feleti Pesefea fpe@linwoodcollege.school.nz
We recognise attendance and giving things a go is key to success at Te Aratai College. We encourage you to check into the parent portal so you can track your child's attendance and encourage them to get involved in the wider life of our community, such as sports, cultural events, and drama production.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your child’s kaiārahi in the first instance or us via email.
Ngā mihi nui,
Heather McLean and Susie Cottrell
