Do you know a Year 6 who is curious about intermediate?

This Thursday and Friday are our Open Day Tours. Year 6 students and their adults are welcome to visit and see what a school day looks like at Northcote Intermediate. Visit classrooms, tech classes, and learn more about NIS.

No appointment needed, just turn up between 9-12pm (although we recommend avoiding 10.30-11.00am as classrooms will be closed for morning tea).

Typical tours last about 30-45 minutes (just let us know if you need to be quicker than that).

Tongan Language Week. Beautiful performance at Assembly today.

NIS Rehu Tai Speech Finals. Congratulations to all participants- you made us proud.
All the best to the students who qualified for the Cluster Finals on Wednesday. Tu meke!

Tomorrow night is our 'extra' performance of High School Musical Jr (the one we've put on because we sold out our three theatre shows!).
