At St. Teresa's School, our Board comprises elected parents, proprietors representatives, the Principal, and a staff representative. The Board holds the responsibility for governance and maintaining the special character of the school.
Understanding that the early years of education shape our children's future contributions to society, the Board is committed to providing the highest quality education. This commitment is embedded in a culture of respect, collaborative effort, and is guided by Catholic values.
Central to our ethos is a strong belief in community involvement. We value the engagement of our community, which helps create an environment that nurtures optimal learning experiences for our students. We strive for academic excellence while encouraging our students to embrace gospel values.
School Board Elections – Call for Nominations
In Term 3, we will be holding our School Board Elections. We are now calling for nominations – either for yourself or someone you know – by Friday 18th July 2025.
Joining the School Board is a meaningful way to contribute to the strategic direction and ongoing success of our kura. It’s a chance to help shape the future of St Teresa’s, supporting our vision of Developing confident, compassionate lifelong learners who embrace Catholic faith.
Board members attend monthly meetings and play a vital role in governance – helping guide decisions that impact our students, staff, and wider school community. It’s important work, and incredibly rewarding.
Our school has achieved so much under the leadership of our current Board – from strengthened learning outcomes and increased roll numbers, to major building improvements and enhanced community engagement. We’re keen to continue this positive momentum and are looking for people who can offer their time, skills, and perspectives to reflect the diverse makeup of our school whānau.
If you’re passionate about education, community, and making a difference, we encourage you to consider stepping forward. For more information or to make a nomination please see Zoe at the school office.
