Speech Night

We had a good turn out to our speech night last night and it was a great opportunity for our orators to present to another audience.  We had the place getters from each year group delivering their speeches and receiving their certificates.  Thank you to all who took part.

Today I sent home a note outlining our position in regards to the Education Renewal plan. Here is a copy of what it said.

Dear parents

After yesterday’s announcements, I just wanted to put out a quick note to assure you that Governors Bay School will remain open and in the same location.

We are in the ‘Restore’ category of schools. This is defined on the Ministry website as follows:

“The Restore category represents low-level change such as earthquake repairs and major works that can be progressed quickly for a cluster of schools or individual schools.”

If you wish to know more you can visit the website at: http://shapingeducation.minedu.govt.nz/ or contact the school.

Rest assured that we continue to provide the same excellent level of teaching and learning you are used to and we look forward to continually improving and building on this for many years to come.

Kind regards

Simon Mutch

Principal
