HNI SCHOOL BOARD

The HNI School Board is an elected group of parent and staff representatives (plus the Principal) who govern the school.

The School Board governs the school whilst the Principal manages the day-to-day running of the school. The Board is the Crown entity responsible for the governance of the school.

The Board is responsible for setting the strategic direction of the school, over-seeing the management of personnel, property, finance, and administration. It is the Board’s responsibility to deal with employment matters referred to them by the Principal as well as ensuring the school communicates effectively with the community.
