Shout out to the Waikato school leaders who put in massive hours to prepare their school to open today at level 3 and then had all those plans overturned. Time may seem wasted, but the dedication to your students, staff and school was clearly visible to all. Thank you & kia kaha!

@NicHardy Yup, switched to the Junior High as their new DP. How’s things with you??

Not quite how I imagined my first day back to be like, but I am so excited to be home! Super grateful to be given this opportunity and cannot wait to get amongst the action! 😁

@shea_mcevoy @tintinskywalker @RHSHamilton Congrats @shea_mcevoy. You have left a legacy at RSHS and will be missed. Good luck on your next journey, Papamoa are lucky to have you! Also... IMAGINE THE FUEL SAVINGS!

@FrandaZondagh @RototunaSHS Whoohoo, Congrats @FrandaZondagh, I am so glad you took on the challenge to lead projects. What an awesome team you have to help lead as well! I cannot wait to see the flavour you add and the amazing projects the students undertake in 2020. You will smash it! 👍🏼

@geogeducator @shea_mcevoy @RototunaSHS @nhemara @tintinskywalker @nfoote83 I have joined the Waikato Regional Council's education team. Leading and supporting the awesome education projects the council delivers like Enviroschools. Sad to be leaving teaching, but excited for the challenge ahead. [insert classic joke about no more holidays here] 😂🤣

Who would like to grow their leadership further by being a part of our awesome team at Rototuna Senior High School? We can’t wait for someone to join us, could that be you? https://t.co/jamEQEbKum

@nhemara Love it! I just want to slap that info onto a map and analyse it! 🗺️ 🤣😂🤣. Cool spark for a module idea!

@RototunaSHS's Benjamin Doyle melting brains at #SOCCON2019. Asking us all to reconsider our approach of tracking and reporting. Thresholds concepts allow learning and 'value added' to be measured. Standardised assessing may not.

@tintinskywalker This looks amazing! Potential PL opportunity for our teachers in T4

Awesome to have the 'Man Overboard' project present to the staff around how to best consider boys needs when we are teaching. Their project is focusing the disparity of boys results in education. Great job men! #pbl #pblchat #rototunahighschools #studentagency

@nfoote83 Thanks mate, I appreciate the kind words.... But I'm pretty sure you did all the work. #imridingoncoattails

[Chris Langley 🇳🇿 @langley277]

Proud of my kura showcasing there is more to success in education than NCEA results and UE data. I cannot wait to see where our students end up. 😎 @RototunaSHS #futurefocused

@RototunaSHS Student project focused on the issue of unsustainable single use coffee cups. The solution...repurposing old beer bottles into espresso cups. "Cutting Edge Coffee' is born. #PBLChat #rototunahighschools
