The Ngāti Toa School Board meet monthly in a meeting which is open to the public. This is usually held on the second Monday of each month in the staffroom at 5:30pm. The meeting generally covers student achievement, finance, property, personnel matters, policy review and development and all matters relating to the effective governance of the school.
The Board is elected by the parents every three years. The current board members were elected in September 2022.
The role of the board is to provide governance to the school. The board, and/or its individual members, are not involved in day to day operations of the school. If you have any queries about school matters, the first point of contact is the school office who can point you in the appropriate direction to have your query resolved by the right person or group.
Board meetings are public meetings. As a courtesy and for logistics purposes, the Board requests that members of the public advise in advance if they intend attending a meeting. If speaking rights are desired these need to be granted in advance from the presiding member.
Meeting dates for 2024:
Monday 12th February, 14th March, 8th April, 13th May, 10th June, 12th August, 9th September, 21st October, 11th November, 9th December.
