Rathkeale College - News Items

2009 in Review
 
A great deal has been achieved at Rathkeale College over the last twelve months. We commenced the school year with 15 newly refurbished classrooms and the further enhancement of our IT capacity ensured the school was well set up for the delivery of our academic programme for 2009. With the staffing assured and our very encouraging 2008 NZQA results, the Board of Trustees and the Trinity School’s Board had every reason to look forward to this year with considerable optimism.
 
The year has progressed at a frenetic pace. A combination of staff dedication and student commitment and leadership has ensured that high levels of achievement have been maintained in a range of academic, sporting and cultural activities. The breadth of opportunities available at Rathkeale College provides for the diverse interests and abilities of our boys and I congratulate all those who have had success in their endeavours this year. A positive attitude will always determine the potential for achievement, personally for students, and collectively for the school.
 
The entire school community has contributed to the successes of 2009. I thank our parents, the Friends’ Association and the Rathkeale Old Boys for the wonderful support and encouragement for what we are seeking to achieve at Rathkeale College.
