Board Elections and Mask Wearing Term 3 2022
Kia ora Netherby School Community.
I trust you are all well. The break is coming to an end and I assume your children are keen to get back to school, mine certainly are.
In Term 3 the Ministry of Health highly recommends mask wearing for students Yr. 4 and above for the first four weeks of term. We send this message, but ultimately like many schools in our area and afar, leave the call up to you, as in it is optional to wear a mask until mandated. For more information on masks please visit the Ministry of Health websites.
School Board Elections
The Board elections are taking place.
Dates are as follows.

So look out for the nomination form and if you are keen to be involved with the school at the Governance level get nominated, or at the least have a chat with current School Board Members or speak to me, the principal.
Enjoy the weekend.
