Consultation on Draft Strategic Plan 2026-2029

31 Mar 2026

Kia ora whānau,

Thank you for sharing your feedback about what matters most to you at our kura, and what you would like to see more of moving forward. We’ve had a fantastic response from our whānau community, and alongside input from our kaiako, students, and wider community, this has been woven into a draft Strategic Plan to guide our kura over the next four years.

Please take some time to read the draft Strategic Plan (attached) and share any thoughts or changes you would like to see. We would appreciate any feedback no later than Friday 17 April.

Every voice counts, and we look forward to hearing from you.

Best Wishes,

Chloe Delamore-Black

Board Chair, Governors Bay School
