New Board of Trustees Announced As with all other state schools in the country, the Northern Health School Board has a three year term of office and the Board's term finishes this year. Health School Boards are appointed by the Minister, following an application process and the following members have been confirmed and will commence their duties at the May Board meeting, following our annual meeting: Richard Abel, Jerome Cudmore, Maxine Moana-Tuwhangai, Michael Stowers and Heather Moore. The staff trustee is elected from the school staff and we can now confirm that Jillian Holland is the staff trustee for the new Board. Congratulations to you all! Lions Club Donation On Wednesday 12th May, the Waikato Unit of NHS was represented by teacher Sue McLeish at the annual combined Morrinsville, Morrinsville Pakeke and Tahuna and Districts Lion’s Club dinner in Morrinsville. Each year Lions club members work hard collecting slinkies (stillborn calves) from local farms and distribute the money raised to schools in their vicinity. We feel very privileged to be included in with this group and were delighted to receive a cheque for one thousand dollars. In previous years we have used this money for exciting things like a new microscope and digital camera. This year we will put the money towards new library books and resources for life skills. Our 10th Birthday This year the Health Schools turn 10 and we at Northern will be celebrating ten years of working with students who have high health needs with a series of "birthday parties" across the school's 14 different Units. The Board and staff would like to acknowledge the nearly 10,000 students we have worked with in that time and their families. We have enjoyed our time with you and wish you a happy Health School birthday as well.
