Three term year v four term - What do you think?
Hi Neighbours,
Did you know it's 25 years since a group of North Waikato schools trialed a four-term year?
A few years later, schools nationwide ditched the three-term year in favour of this.
So, parents - does having a 10-week term and two weeks of school holidays work for you and your family? Would you support any further changes to the school year? Do children get too many holidays?
Education reporter Aaron Leaman is keen to speak to you.
