Exam and Assessment Conditions

A reminder that, following the Co-Requisite Assessments and Derived Grade Practice Examinations held during Weeks 7 and 8, we will continue to operate under examination conditions on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of Week 9 (next week).   During these three days, some school operations will differ from our usual routines to accommodate the examination conditions, as they did during the Term 2 examination period.

Access to the school grounds: As the Upper School building is our Exam Centre, access to this area of the school grounds is limited to staff and students involved in the assessments.  The main gate will be locked, so there will be no access to the school through this gate. Please use the side gate by the playground for all access to the school grounds.

Temporary Office Location : The office will be temporarily relocated to an office space in the second lower building, Kauri Rua. Please follow the map posted at the gate for directions to the temporary office.  Due to the temporary change in location, the school phone line will not be able to be answered directly. However, the line will remain open and voicemail will be checked regularly.

Alternatively, you can contact the office by:

• Phone: 020 4110 5250
• Email: info@kingsgate.school.nz

Thank you for your support.

 

The KingsGate team.

Good afternoon,

This is an advance notice to let you know that the ENJOY Sushi option for EZ Lunch orders will be unavailable for one week either side of the upcoming school holidays.

The affected dates are Friday 25 September and Friday 16 October. These dates will be blocked out on the calendar in the ordering app, so ENJOY Sushi will not be available to order on these days.

Thank you for your understanding.

There will be a range of personalised items available - Calendar, Greeting Cards, Mouse Mat, Diary, Notebook, making these a wonderful way to preserve your child’s artwork and create thoughtful gifts for family and friends.
