We recently heard back from Teru Carrington Bartlett about her journey at Epsom Girls Grammar and Boarding at Inzone Education:Dear Northland Community Foundation,The subjects that I enjoy at school are Environmental Science, English and photography. I have friends in those classes that help and motivate me to do my schoolwork and to complete the homework tasks on time. At the moment, I am supporting the kapa haka group enabling me to learn more about my culture and also to embrace the Maaori culture. Today I walked back to the hostel from school very exhausted but happy to be surrounded with friends who encourage and push me everyday to be the person I am today. At Inzone every morning we hold devotions where it allows different year groups to come forward to present inspirational speeches to us girls, giving us a better understanding of otherthings in life. Inzone is beneficial because everyday we have prep sessions at 6.30pm to 7.15pm. This allows us to get our homework done and notes written down from previous schoolwork and getting in the zone of being independent. Inzone helps me complete work, get to school on time and get a good rest. Without Inzone I wouldn’t have the determination and courage to do the list above. Overall I am grateful to be a part of the girls kainga at Inzone.Regards,Teru
