Meet our Pukehou School Board
As with other New Zealand schools our Board of Trustees comprises elected representatives from the community and staff along with the Principal. The Board of Trustees is responsible for the Governance and Policies of the school. In particular the Board of Trustees is responsible for the charter and strategic plan for the school. It is also particularly interested in reviewing the academic achievement data to measure the performance of the school. Parents are welcome to attend any meetings and are encouraged to stand at the Board elections held every 3 years. The Board of Trustees reports to parents on a regular basis and welcomes parental interest.
Rob Pratt, Principal
Rob was appointed as the Principal in January 2022 after being the Principal at Kererū School for four years. He is excited to be ‘coming home’ to CHB after spending 12 years here as the NZ Police Youth Aid Officer, finishing in 2010. In that time he facilitated a number of positive direction programmes for youth through Blue Light and EPIC. He is passionate about helping our children and young people develop their full potential through a values-based education and believes wonder, curiosity, and creativity are key. Rob is a passionate sportsman who can usually be found in the playground!
