Alongside the learning conversations on 16 and 17 September, we are holding a Scholastic Book Fair. We'll have an exciting range of new children's books and stationery at affordable prices (cash and EFTPOS available).

The Library will be open Wednesday and Thursday from 2.30 pm and during the conferences, so come in before, between, and after. In addition to supporting our school library, Trentham children will have chances to win prizes.

📢 Relief Teachers Wanted! 🍎

Trentham School is currently experiencing a shortage of day-to-day relief teachers and we are keen to hear from qualified and registered teachers who may be interested in joining our relief pool.

Relief teaching is a great way to stay connected to education, gain experience across different year levels, and make a real difference in students' learning when regular classroom teachers are unavailable.

If you hold current New Zealand teacher registration and would like to be considered for day-to-day relieving work at Trentham School, we would love to hear from you.

Please contact the school office at 045286485 or email [email protected] for more information.

We would also appreciate our community sharing this post with any registered teachers who may be interested.

Thank you for helping us ensure continuity of learning for our students. 😊
