A word from the PrincipalThis year we are celebrating our 50th year as a school. Students first attendedMāngere College in 1971 and the school has gone from strength to strength overthe following 50 years. We will be marking this special year with events in eachterm which started with our Jubilee Pōwhiri and Meet & Greet event on 9 April.It was great to meet so many past students and staff at these events includingsome students and staff who started at the school in its very first year. If youwould like updates on other events through the year please register on ourwebsite.Term One this year was a long and busy term and despite the lockdowndisruptions at the start of the year there was so much to celebrate.We started the year with the news that our NCEA results in 2020 wereour best ever. Our Level 1 pass rate was 86%, Level 2 was 90% and Level3 was 64%. These are fantastic results for our school particularly with allthe disruption we had through the year in 2020. Students worked veryhard with the support of their teachers and all our senior students for2020 should be congratulated on their fantastic results. These resultsnow set a benchmark that we aim to meet each year as we continue toimprove.To finish off Term 1 we were very fortunate to see our studentsdisplaying their talents in Polyfest. It has been three years sincewe have seen a full Polyfest take place and our students did notdisappoint. All groups performed with pride and passion and itwas particularly pleasing to see our Cook Islands group win the topoverall prize.Tom WebbPrincipal of Māngere CollegeTerm 2Bell TimesMONDAY/FRIDAY8:50am Period 19:50am Period 210:50am Shared Kai11:10am Break 111:40am Period 312:40pm Period 41:40pm Break 22:10pm Period 53:10pm End BellFree Healthy LunchesThis year, our school has beenreceiving free healthy schoollunches for our students froma partnership with the Ministryof Education.
