Kerikeri High School Sport Forum

Thursday 26 April, 7.30pm in the Kerikeri High School Library.

Kerikeri High School would like to extend an invitation to all staff, parents and volunteers who are involved and interested in Sport at Kerikeri High School to a forum on Sport in our school.

The purpose of the forum is to cover many of the school processes involved with sport, and to offer an opportunity for a question and answer/suggestion session.  There will also be an opportunity to contribute to the current review of the Sports Department.

Workday Money Counters

The PTA would appreciate volunteers to help receipt and count workday money at the school on the mornings of Tuesday 1 May, Wednesday 2 May and Thursday 3 May from about 9.30 am.  Any time you can give on those mornings would be much appreciated.  If you can help please advise the PTA Secretary, Justine Strang, by emailing her at the PTA Secretary link on this website.  Thank you very much.
