Principal's Welcome
|
| |
 It is my pleasure to welcome students, parents and staff to the 2010 academic year. I look forward to having all students returned by the Wednesday the 3rd of February and quickly settled into learning and school routines. In particular, welcome to those parents and students who are new to school in 2010.
The success of students at Northcote College 2010 will reflect the commitment of the students themselves and also the commitment of teachers, parents and others who will guide, support, inspire and encourage students to achieve their best.
I urge parents to make every effort to stay in touch with school activities and events. This website is a useful resource for parents in this regard and one we aim to make greater use of this year.
I invite and welcome feedback from parents. All suggestions, ideas and comments can be emailed to principal@northcote.school.nz
I wish all Northcote College students and families the very best for a successful 2010 school year.
