School Closed - Wednesday 15th August 2018
The NZEI has advised the MBIS Board of Trustees that the principal and teachers at our school will be taking strike action on Wednesday 15th August.
The Board has carefully considered the availability of teaching staff, and unfortunately decided that we can't provide the normal teaching services during the strike. As a result the school will need to close during this strike.
40% of new teachers leave the profession in the first five years.
35% of our experienced teachers will be eligible to retire during the next 10 years and many are leaving early.
A bold solution is needed to address the crisis to ensure children will have quality teachers in the coming years.
Below is the email sent out to all our families

At Murrays Bay Intermediate School we have a special way of thinking called 'Invitational learning'.
This style of learning leads to higher level thinking and invites children to be learning partners in a global world. With our invitational style of teaching our students are invited to think, contribute and collaborate with others.
Intermediate School is a very important stage in one's schooling. It will be for most people the most wonderful, positive, empowering experience and we are committed to helping that be the case for each and every one of our students. There will be some specialisation in preparation for College and students will be introduced to many new and interesting aspects of the curriculum.
