Prospectus
Kā nui mihi kia koutou kotoa.
Greetings to you all.
The students, fellow parents, trustees and staff hope your association with Havelock School will be a rewarding and pleasant experience.
The coming years will provide many interesting opportunities for you as a parent, to play an active part in both the life of your son or daughter and the school. It is only through involving ourselves in the corporate life of the school and its activities that the school is better able to serve the community for which it was established.
The beginnings of a new millennium will continue to bring many changes that could concern you. Major changes in the administration of schools has already taken effect and further developments concerning the curriculum are also well under way and will have an increasing effect on teaching and learning in schools.
Havelock School has enjoyed significant gains from the efforts of parents and the community in general. The ideal environment and facilities available today reflect the great commitment and stewardship dating from 1861.
We trust you will continue to be actively concerned about the quality of learning and demonstrate this by identifying yourself as closely as possible with your school.

GENERAL
From time to time parents and caregivers have questions on a variety of matters relating to school policy that we feel should receive greater publicity and be generally available to all. This Prospectus sets out to fill the gap and is designed to help parents and caregivers new to a school, in two ways.
1 To share its mission, general objectives and philosophy.
2 To give an explanation to some of the more specific points that help our school to run more smoothly and remain a worthwhile learning environment for all who work there.
However, the information listed here is necessarily limited. If you ever require information about school life, expectations, your child's progress or house-keeping matters, you are most welcome to contact the principal or appropriate staff member.Download the Havelock School Prospectus for 2010 (542 KB PDF)
