Hastings Secondary College Principals Message

If you have registered for parent teacher conferences, teachers will be contacting you shortly. Teachers will be calling from their private phones and therefore no caller ID will be shown. If you have missed a call without a caller ID it could be a teacher trying to contact you.

 

Message from Executive Principal Hastings Secondary College - Ian Ross

Dear Parents and Carers

I know it is confusing and challenging at the moment, so do not be too hard on yourself.

If I could, I would declare Monday as ‘Fun Day Monday’ and give you a break… just to let you rest and let things be.
