Introducing the Greenhithe School PTA

The Greenhithe School PTA is a group of parents and teachers who work together to support our school community. Our main focus is fundraising for additional resources that benefit all students, from playground upgrades and sports equipment to classroom materials and other projects identified by the school and Board.

We meet once a month on a Tuesday at 7pm and provide a friendly space to connect with other parents, share ideas, and discuss upcoming events and initiatives. You can be as involved as you like, attend meetings, help at events, or simply stay connected.

How much time does it take?
Even a small amount of time helps! Whether you can make meetings or just lend a hand at the occasional event, every bit of support makes a difference.
If you’d like to join our 2026 WhatsApp group, email us at greenhitheschoolpta@gmail.com, or stay updated via facebook.com/GreenhitheSchoolPTA.

Thanks,

Sjaan and the Greenhithe PTA team

Albany Schooling Pathway Research

Albany Junior High School wants to hear from local families about how you think about schooling decisions and the local schooling pathway. They have partnered with independent research agency ‘Enlighten Me’ to run a short survey, and we would love for you to take part. It takes around 5 to 10 minutes, all responses are anonymous, and everyone who completes can go into the draw to win a $50 GiftPay voucher.

Share your views in the survey here: [https://r.enlightenme.nz/s3/b7545f061215].
