Wairau Intermediate School Wairau Intermediate School is a coeducational intermediate (middle) school with a roll of 316 and a decile of eight (8). . The school is on Becroft Drive, Forrest Hill. How the school is set up The school is set up in blocks, like any other school in the Forrest Hill/Sunnynook area, but they aren't 4 walled classrooms. Instead, all the classes are joined together. The classrooms do have outer walls (of course). As a student, I (the creator of this page), write that it is very noisy sometimes. All blocks are like this (except for Block 4, which is now used as a Technology Class/ESOL block). Block 1's Website This is a website (created by the creator of this page), to show Block 1 to the world. It is a small site, but it has a good homepage. Not finished yet, but it will be soon (actually, as soon as my teacher lets me do it (from after lunch till 2:50 PM (10 minutes before home time; but not on Tuesdays). Visit it here Technology Class-What it is: Technology Class, or Tech (T/C), is when we do activities around the school, like Visual Art, Cooking, Metal Technology, and Music. Unfortunately, we have lost 2 Techs/Opportunitys-Fabric & Electronics. The person who taught it, retired :(. Anyway, Technology Class is F U N! Subjects The Main Subjects at Wairau Intermediate School include: Maths, Specialist, Technology, Block Sport, P.E., Grammar to go, Reading, Spelling, Mathletics, SSR, Library, Poetry (occasionally) and more. If you don't know what Mathletics is, here is your answer: It is part of our homework. We log on at school and/or home, play on it for ages. Then, in the weekend (or Friday, before school), the teachers check the score, and if it is 0-990, the person gets an after-school detention. Only Block one has block singing every Wednesday. Each and every student can bring in their own music and the teachers will find the lyrics for the song.
