Farewell Year 13s
NCEA Exam Information
Good luck to all of our Senior Students writing exams over the next few weeks!
It is important that students know when their exams are, arrive 30 minutes before the start of the exam and have their Exam Admission Slip with them (Mr Pera has these if you did not get them from your Ākina Coach).
Students are to meet each day in the outside area between the 20s and 30s Blocks or in the Hall foyer if it's raining.
Please contact Mr Pera (pe@hastingsgirls.com) if you have any issues or concerns or think that you may miss an exam you intended to write.

Senior Exam Tutorials
We encourage students to make the most of our study tutorials ahead of their exams. We ask that when Seniors are coming to school, they come in full school uniform and sign in and out at the Student Centre. Students on study leave are welcome to use T1 as a study space (this is the only space available).
Timetable Changes
Due exams from Thursday 9 November the timetable will change. Ākina time will move to the start of the day, for juniors this is the only change. Senior students who are not yet on study leave will now be timetabled into Kāhui study spaces. They should make the most of the first three days of next week, in their normally timetabled classes to ensure they get as much work done as possible, whilst they are with their teachers.
