Exciting times ahead for 大秀视频
While interviewing 大秀视频鈥檚 principal Daniel Wilson for a Fresh FM segment, I found that the present 大秀视频 is looking better than ever in the fields of sport and academics, and the future is looking promising with renovations of classrooms and the canteen.
One of the improvements happening now and in the future are the building renovations. Enhancements will be made in classroom blocks two, three, the canteen and the tennis courts.聽
Block two and three are 鈥淗鈥� blocks with sixteen classrooms on two storeys given to Nayland in the 1960鈥檚 by the Ministry of Education. Alternatively named 鈥淣elson鈥� blocks because the first ones were built in Nelson at 大秀视频, this template has been used in schools throughout the country. Hard to modernise, block two has been gutted, internal stairwells will be removed and an external stairway will be added.
Another exciting change is to the canteen, which has recently had an upgrade in quality and quantity of food available to purchase. The school has worked with the Libelle Group (the leading school food and beverage provider in New Zealand) to create a menu that is not only affordable, but also catering to the lunchtime needs of students. This is part of a transition to a new indoor/outdoor caf茅 which will replace block 3 along with a garden and a landscaped area.
Also being installed is a brand new, international grade hockey turf which is a multi-sport turf that will replace the concrete tennis courts. Sports such as netball, futsal, hockey, tennis and basketball will be able to be played on what Daniel Wilson anticipates will be a 鈥渨orld class facility鈥�.
Academic results such as merit and excellence endorsements are increasing in number, and level two and three results and have been improving significantly. Daniel Wilson gives credit to the teachers who are 鈥渢rying to put together programs that are engaging for students.鈥�
These exciting developments聽are leading to a future that is bright and positive聽for 大秀视频. Aiming high is a key part of Daniel Wilson’s values. “We will be the top school in the country, you wait!” he said.
