WHAT ARE GET CONNECTED DAYS?

At Taradale Intermediate we believe that making educationally powerful connections with learners and families as early as possible makes for a fantastic start to our learning journey with your child.

In 2026 we will again be having ‘Get Connected’ sessions on Tuesday 27th January starting in the afternoonand Wednesday 28th of January. There are two parts to these sessions; Get Connected with teachers and Get Connected digitally.

Get connected with teachers: This is the opportunity to make connections and share information. Learners will attend with their parents/caregivers. (approx. 10 mins)
Get connected digitally for Year 7 and any new Year 8: This the opportunity for the setting up of devices -school logins, HERO, DigiCode etc.(approx. 30 mins but please allow an hour). There will be some forms to fill out online before the days - this will speed up the process.
Please note the hub will close at 4.30pm on Tuesday and 4pm on Wednesday so if your interviews are in the last slot - please connect digitally before your interview time.

Information and meeting times will be out to families by the 21st of January. This will include your child's class for 2026.

If you haven't received this information by Friday 23rd of January 2026 please contact David Breeds on davidb@taradaleint.school.nz
Monday 2nd February 2026 will be the first day the full school will be in attendance.

Could your child please bring a copy of their end of Year 6 report with them either at Get Connected or on the first day of school. These will be collected in by their teacher.
