Adult and Community Education Classes

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

 Funding has been withdrawn from hobby, fitness and special interest evening classes.  However the HNHS Board of Trustees and the School Foundation were keen that we continue.  They believe that this school has a great evening class culture and we see this as an important aspect of our role as the secondary school which serves the needs of the greater part of the Havelock North community.    The inevitable consequence of the removal of the subsidy is that those wishing to attend our community education classes now have to pay the full cost of that class.  We believe many of you will see this as a worthwhile investment and that you will continue to suscribe to the programme.  If the continued support we believe is there actually transpires, we can approach other tutors to offer their services as well.

Community Education Co-ordinator´s Report

As part of a teacher's sabbatical awarded in 2009, Brian Pereira, the school's Community Education Co-ordinator for many years, wrote a report on the effects of the withdrawal of ACE (Adult Community Education) funding from secondary schools from 2009.  Access this report from the link below.
