Learning Support and the Enrichment Centre
The service provided by the Learning Support Department at Avonside Girls’ High School is designed to identify and/or reduce existing barriers between an akonga and their best potential in school. These barriers may affect learning or social interaction. Therefore, if you have a concern about the progress of your tamariki, please contact either the Head of Learning Support (SENCo) Natalie Malan or Learning Support Coordinators Kirsty Clark or Angela Dye Hayes.
