News & Events

The nomination process for our School Board elections has started, and nominations are now open. We have six spaces for parent representatives on the Ko Taku Reo School Board. We have appointed Schooled Election Pilot as the Returning Officer for the election. They will be handling the election process, and you will see communications directly from them.

Everyone eligible to vote in the election will receive a nomination pack (either via email or post). The info pack will contain everything you need to nominate yourself or another member of the community. (If you are going to nominate someone else, just make sure they know about it and will accept the nomination!). It will also include information on who isn’t able to be a School Board member.

If you need extra forms or want a copy of the nomination form, contact the Returning Officer from Election Pilot directly on 0800 VOTENZ (0800 868 369) or election@electionpilot.nz.

Don’t leave things to the last minute, because elections close at noon on Friday, 26 September 2025. You can email in your nomination or complete it online at www.boardelections.nz. We encourage you to submit a candidate statement (either written or in NZSL) along with a smiling photo when you send in your nomination.

Voting will end at 4pm on Friday, 31 October 2025.
