Welcome to Heretaunga College

Mike King's visit. Unfortunately, due to the weather Mike's plane has been redirected to Auckland. The Community Event will now start at 7pm tonight. The talk with the students during school time has been cancelled.

Mike King is coming to speak to our students on Tuesday afternoon. He is also running a Community Korero from 6.30pm in our hall on Tuesday evening. The evening event is open to the whole community. There is no charge.

Dear Parents & Caregivers We wish to advise that the funeral for Kayla Thompson-Toomer will be held at 1pm on Monday 26th November 2018 at Lane Park Church (22 Lane Street, Upper Hutt). Students wishing to attend the funeral must provide a note from home or a message left on the absence line. If your child is attending the funeral they should be accompanied by a parent or caregiver. School will remain open and classes will run as normal for all other students. Kind regards Bruce Hart PRINCIPAL

Sheds for Sale The Year 10 Technology class has been industriously building four garden sheds/playhouses over the past three terms. These buildings are built using 50 x 50 timber framing on an underfloor of bearers and joists and clad with tantalised ply and battens. They are very sturdily built. The floor area is 2.4 metres x 1.5 metres including the porch with the shed itself being 1.8 x 1.5 metres. They have a polycarbonate window. Two of the buildings have been sold to members of the school community who have approached me about them; however, I am now offering the other two for sale. They are both being sold for the cost of materials. One building is painted with Karaka Green timber stain and the internal walls are lined with 3mm MDF. It could make a nice children’s playhouse. The price for this one is $1350. The other building is unpainted and without internal lining so is more suitable as a tool/garden shed. The price for this one is $1200. Transportation can be arranged if required using a general transport truck with a hiab (crane) that can drop the shed onto your site. This will be approximately $150 to deliver to a location in Upper Hutt. They can easily be rolled across flat ground using three round logs if required. If you are interested in purchasing, or would like to inspect please call Brian Benge 02218981561.
