Term 4 Starts


Andrew Hunger
2011-2012 Student Trustee
New student trustee
Congratulations to Andrew Hunger who has been elected as the 2011 – 2012 Student Trustee for the SHS Board of Trustees. There were ten students who put themselves forward for this position so it made for an exciting election period. Andrew attended his first board meeting in October. Many thanks to Astyn Buckland who has been the current Representative.

Senior Prizegiving
All parents and caregivers are invited to the senior prizegiving on Tuesday 8th November commencing at 1.00pm. We ask that parents are seated by 12.50 pm to ensure a prompt start. The prizegiving will be followed by afternoon tea for parents and prizewinners.

Final Payments
All parents and caregivers are encouraged to pay all outstanding accounts for students. The money has been outlayed on behalf of your student for their course this year. Any money outstanding for curriculum or sports means that next year there will not be as much funding in departments as these debts will have to be covered by the MOE funding.

Board Of Trustees Strategic Plan - Community Consultation

The Board of Trustees are reviewing and finalising the strategic plan for 2012—2014. The first draft of this plan is on the school website and has been posted to parents. If you would like to comment on this please email the Board of Trustees bot@stratfordhigh.school.nz or send a letter to the board via the main office of the school.
Also on the school website are two surveys which you can complete. The first concerns the strategic plan and the second concerns the school uniform review.
