Today is ORIENTATION DAY at HOWICK INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL!!

REMEMBER, FIRST IMPRESSIONS ARE LASTING IMPRESSIONS

TODAY, our local Contributing Primary Schools will be visiting our school in blocks 1 and 2. 

This is an opportunity for these students who are potentially attending HIS in 2026  to see our school in action. 

It is important that they see what an awesome school HIS is! 

Our school leaders will be walking around the school with groups of parents, showing them all the fabulous teaching and learning environments that we have.

Please make sure that your room environments are nice and tidy, and the areas outside your whānau are free of rubbish, and school shoes are neat and tidy.

Today, Specialist classes will be in BLOCK 1 and 2

Ngata- Block 1

Cooper- Block 2

Normal classroom programme Block 3

REMEMBER FIRST IMPRESSIONS ARE LASTING IMPRESSIONS
