For 2026 we encourage all parents to set up an automatic payment for all their school accounts - it makes your and our lives simple and means your child's accounts are paid without you having to organise anything. If you require information on the automatic payment please contact Mrs Sharon Moody (details above). Statements are emailed at the end of each month. Other ways of paying your fees are payment by eftpos at the office or online banking.
Our bank details are 03 1700 0028981 25. Please include your child's first and last name and ID number on any of these payment methods.
As we reach the end of the school financial year, we appreciate those families who have regularly paid the school's compulsory costs and contributions in difficult financial times. This allows us to provide important opportunities for our students in their learning, Special Character, and extra-curricular activities. We welcome the opportunity to discuss any financial concerns from our families or to establish an online payment option. Please contact Mrs Sharon Moody, Finance Officer to arrange an appointment.

Kia ora koutou katoa,
What a cracking end to the year seeing lots of students outside and enjoying the recent warm days! Both Sam and I have been privileged to work with a group of such wonderful young people this year and it has been amazing to walk alongside you all. For those of you who would like to catch up in 2026, you can simply fill out the Google form on the school website, just click Counsellor under the Students and Whānau tab and we will reply when we return in late January. In the meantime if you or someone you know need support over the summer please reach out to one of the helplines listed.
Wishing you and your loved ones a restful and relaxing summer break! Kia atawhai, kia tūpato, kia haumaru (be kind, be careful, be safe)

Sport Thank You
We extend a big thank you to all the students, parents, and caregivers who have provided unwavering support to Marian College Sport throughout 2025. We continue to enjoy our amazing sports facilities and hosting schools for various games this year. Yet again, sport participation across all sports showed a positive increase and our teams competing at regional, south island and national levels have gained great results. Mercy Cup was a particular highlight.
A special thank you goes out to the dedicated staff members who coach and supervise the teams throughout the year. Their invaluable contributions make it all possible. The work of Mrs Jess Huia as our Director of Sport is much appreciated and has allowed our teams and individual students to flourish this year. A thank you also to Georgia Crowther as Head of Sport.
We look forward to seeing so many sports continue to flourish in 2026.
