 Barrytown School Board of Trustees election 2025

 

Kia ora

 

The 2025 Board of Trustee election is now complete.  Candidates were contacted last night by the current board chairperson, Hanne Greenhalgh.

 

Congratulations to the three successful candidates and best wishes for your work on the new board.  It is an important and responsible position.

 

Thank you to all who took part in this election process: the eight candidates in particular for putting yourselves forward, and the forty-five members of the school community who took the time to vote. At 79%, it was a very pleasing election turnout.

 

Please see the attached memo #9 for the full voting results.

Mud Run

There is a lot of excited  kids about this today! It is being held in the paddock beside the cemetery. If you could please park on the beach side away from the calf shed as there will be vehicles coming and going from there. We will be walking down and leaving school just before 1 . Pick up is from the paddock by 2 please.

THERE IS NO BUS.

Disco

Happening tonight at the hall from 5:30 - throw on your glad rags and come and have a boogie with the kids. Thanks Roni, Stacey and co for organising.

 

I hope you all have a great break. Don't forget the market is happening next weekend so baking can be dropped into my place, just flick me a text so I know your coming, or give Stacey a call and she can pick .
