Progress Hui
As we move into the business end of the academic year, please note the following important checkpoints and events:
Senior NCEA summary reports will be circulated to Whānau and Ākina Coaches on 11 June. These documents will summarise our rangitahi academic progress to date and will be the starting point for conversations at our annual Progress Hui.
The Progress Hui will be held on Thursday 17 June between 2pm and 6pm to discuss your girl's academic progress to date and the overall plan moving forward with her Ākina Coach. The reason that this initial hui will be between Whānau and Ākina coaches is so that you can gain an overall picture of her progress to date and begin making a plan for the coming year. Your girl can make a booking on your behalf directly with her Ākina Coach or you may be contacted directly if your girl has asked her Ākina Coach to do so. Please feel free to call the school or email pe@hastingsgirls.com if you have any questions!
Borrowed Uniform
If you have borrowed school uniform form please return it on Monday as we need to be able to loan it to other students who need it. Thank you. Our Admin staff will be ringing to remind you.

Next week we will be celebrating Samoan Independence week, with HBHS. Keep an eye on Facebook and Instagram for updates on all our activities over the week.

Sideline behaviour for Sports
Winter sport is on the way but we need to put another friendly reminder out to our sporting community with support and education around sideline behaviour when supporting our HGHS teams.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE A POSITIVE SUPPORTER
Data shows that youth are dropping out of sport. Whilst we recognise there are various reasons for this, research has indicated reasons for the decline (as stated by youth) are: They no longer find it fun, pressure to win/perform, a lack of confidence, and a lack of playing time. This initiative is about influencing attitudes in youth sport to make sure we are keeping kids in sport.
Children love being active and playing sport, therefore the programme is designed to support parents and caregivers (supporters) to help their child enjoy sport – and the side-line is only part of the picture. It also includes in the car ride between games, encouraging children to try multiple sports, and helping them to enjoy sport purely for their reasons for playing. Whilst they may be playing in a competitive environment, most kids play because they want to have fun! Research shows that the following reasons are why kids play sport:
- Have fun
- Hang out with friends
- Learn new skills
- Be fit and healthy
Often kids give up when they no longer find it fun.
