The countdown is on, and we can’t wait to see everyone on the dance floor tomorrow! Here is everything you need to know to ensure a fun, safe, and smooth night for all of our students.

  Ticket & Attendance Info

Ticket Distribution: Students will be issued their tickets during school hours tomorrow.

  Drop-off & Parking (Beat the Traffic!)

The school driveway gets incredibly congested. To keep everyone safe and moving, we highly encourage you to:

Drop your child off at the top of the driveway, or

Park at Lynmouth Park or on Bonithon Ave and walk them to the hall doors.

Make sure the kids have some pocket money! We will have a tuck shop running with:

  Pizza slices

Today, Mrs Thorburn took Mackenzie and Emily to Momo Sushi for a special lunch to celebrate an incredible achievement – earning their Platinum Mana Badge by collecting 200 Mana Tickets! 🏆

Reaching 200 Mana Tickets is no small feat and reflects the consistent effort, positive attitude, and commitment both students show every day. They are wonderful role models who demonstrate our school values and contribute positively to our Devon Intermediate community.

Of course, no celebration lunch would be complete without some food recommendations! 🍣

😋 Emily highly recommends the BBQ Chicken Tempura Pocket.

🥤 Mackenzie’s top pick was the Coke Zero Sugar.

Congratulations, Mackenzie and Emily, on this outstanding accomplishment. We are incredibly proud of you both and grateful for the positive example you set for others. Keep up the fantastic work! 👏✨

We hope you had a fantastic day at the Leadership Conference yesterday.

 

Once again, your students exceeded all expectations during their stay with us. They went above and beyond by stripping their beds, folding towels, and leaving their rooms in excellent condition, which certainly made my (Neil's) morning a lot easier.

 

We've attached a few notes that were left for our team. These small gestures mean a great deal to us. They genuinely brighten our day, put a spring in our step, and remind us why we love what we do.

 

I mentioned last year that Devon Intermediate is in very good hands with young leaders like these. They are a credit to themselves, their whānau, your school, and the wider Taranaki community. Their manners, respect, and thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed.

With your permission, we would love to share some of these positive moments on our social media channels. Too often we hear only the negative stories about young people, when in reality there are so many incredible young leaders doing wonderful things and deserving recognition.

 

Please pass on our thanks and congratulations to the students and staff involved. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting them and hope to welcome you all back again next year.

Enjoy the rest of the week and the remainder of the school term.
