The chairperson provides a summary of the 2013 year at Pukekohe Hill School. Key points include: - There was a largely new board elected in 2013 that has faced a steep learning curve. - The school received high praise in its 2012 ERO review for its strong, dedicated teaching team and sound governance. - Enrollment has remained steady at around 600 students, placing pressure on school facilities. Repairs were made to the roof and leaks over the past year. - The board reviews the school's strategic charter and policies annually to set goals and measure progress. Efforts continue to support Maori and Pacific island students.
