NCEA Results                                                Year 13 Camp
Once again, we are proud of our students’ achieve-
ments in NCEA. The percentage of students achieving
each level of NCEA, gaining their certificates endorsed
with Merit and Excellence has improved from our 2010
results and shows marked improvement over the last 4
years. We are above the National statistics in every ar-
ea except the percentage of excellences at Level One
where we were 0.1 below overall, but above in Merit
endorsements. This is an excellent trend and one of
which we can all feel proud and work hard to continue.

The percentages of Merits and Excellences are given as
a percentage of those students who achieved at each
level.

With the advent of individual subject endorsements,
students have the chance to show how well they can
perform in each subject. In order to gain a subject en-
dorsed with Merit, your daughter needs to gain 14
credits at Merit or Excellence, 3 of which must be inter-
nal and 3 external (final exams or portfolios sent away
for marking). Similarly, to gain a subject endorsed with
excellence, your daughter needs to gain 14 credits at
Excellence, 3 of which must be internal and 3 external.
This applies to all subjects except Physical Education
(all internal) and Level 3 Visual Arts (either).

This is an area a number of departments will be work-
ing to further improve this year.

Special congratulations must go to Tiantian Zheng and
Rachel Evans who gained all their subjects endorsed
with excellence in 2011. This is an outstanding achieve-
ment. Well done, Girls!

Year 13 Camp
We held a very successful Year 13 leadership camp at
Pururi Bay , made memorable with the girls being giv-
en the task of organising the last day of activities them-
selves. They did this with great flair and organisational
skill, and the teachers felt that it was the best last day
of camp we had ever had. The energy level was ex-
tremely high (especially considering the huge week
they had had) , and the girls all had a blast.
We would like to thank John Hewinson for loaning his
marquees and shade sails , and also for coming and
erecting them for us . The week was extremely sunny
and I really don’t know how we would have coped
without them to be honest.
The Pururi Bay DOC rangers , and other campers were
very complimentary about the girls, and all attended
our Wearable Arts Show on the last night. There are
lots of great photos on the school computers , that the
girls have access to.
Thank you to the staff who helped make this a very
worthwhile and memorable camp, and helping prepare
the girls for the challenging year ahead.
