2. ART at Waihi College
We have identified those students that we believe sit on
the margin of gaining Level Two. We need to find staff
willing to mentor these students (to find their needs this
year).
Please take the time to consider your relationship with
these individuals and consider if you could be their mentor
for 2016.

4. ART at Waihi College
1. Responsibility: give us a chance to prove to you that we can be responsible.
2. Respect: treat us like you’d like to be treated.
3. Trust: don’t judge us just because we are teenagers …. Not all of us are bad.
4. Give us a chance to make mistakes, learn from experience and to explain our
opinion or our side of the story.
5. Care: Let us know you care.
6. Support: we need support, we need to be reassured we are doing the right
thing.
7. Understanding: listen to what we have to say and understand that we have
stresses and problems too. Although they may seem insignificant to you, they
are big to us. Being a teenager is not easy: understand us.
8. Balance: don’t leave us totally alone. We need you to catch us if we fail.
9. Give us praise: when we do things that are good or make the right decisions.
10. Freedom: it may be hard but let us go. We have to leave our own footprints
and make our own decisions and mistakes. Part of growing up is finding out
who we are, what we value and what we need as a person. Only we alone can
make that journey.
