JAPAN TRIVIA CHAMPIONSHIP On Friday 6 November, eight students were taken to compete in the annual Japan Trivia Championship. Our two teams of students competed against 12 other teams from around the Wellington region, as well as against other regions nationally, answering questions all about Japan in six categories. At the end, one of our teams faced off against a team from Hutt Valley High School in a tie breaker question: How many emperors has Japan had? The answer: 126. The closest guess won the competition. HVHS answered with 52. Our team answered with 126.
We brought home the trophy for the first time since the competition began in 2015 and are incredibly proud of the mahi our students put into this competition.
Team One (First Place): Lucas Noble, Jillian Chester-Dixon, Achilan Srichantapong, and Rezem Mihaka-Collier. Team Two: Lashae Hauwaho-Tiopira, Sian Rudd, Summer Bastida, and Avah Shelley.

Signing In/Out of College Students are reminded to sign in at the student office if they are late to school. All students should have a note explaining their lateness or parents should ring the College absence line (939 9370 Ext 814) or email [email protected] When signing out to attend appointments students are required to present a note/text to the office. If a student is unwell they are required to come to the student office where office staff will call a parent. Signing in and out of the college is now done electronically. Students need to have their ID number and/or their ID card for scanning.
Uniform As you are aware, Heretaunga College is a uniform school. When students are persistent in wearing their uniform incorrectly, we view this as disrespect for the mana of our school and community.
Now is the time for caregivers to ensure that students' uniforms are completely sorted. This includes making sure that hair, jewellery and piercings meet the school uniform expectations as outlined in the student and caregiver handbooks.
Students will not be permitted into classes with incorrect uniform. Students will no longer be issued with a permit for non-uniform items. Students who arrive at school without correct uniform will be provided with clean uniform items to borrow for the day.
For a medical exemption, students are to bring a medical certificate and will be provided with a permit.
We now have a school hoodie and therefore no other hoodie (including the HC sport hoodie) is viewed as part of the HC uniform.
Correct uniform wearing by students at our school demonstrates their respect for the school and our PRIDE values.
Please contact the college if you are requiring support in obtaining correct uniform items.
Please name your students uniform. We can return lost items quicker if they are named. A Learning Environment of Opportunity and Challenge

Printing Printing credits can be purchased for personal use. Students can choose their top up amount from $5.
Making Payments Cash or cheque payments can be made at the college office between 8.00am and 2.15pm daily, with Eftpos facilities available until 3.15pm. Students can make payments before school starts each morning and during school break times only. Alternatively, payments can be made online.
