Reader-Writer Volunteers needed
We are looking for volunteers to help our students at Kaiapoi High school who have Special Assessment Conditions given to them by NZQA to help support NCEA assessments, both internal throughout the year and external during the exams in November. These students require helpers to read aloud assessments and/or write dictated answers for them.
This is a voluntary role that would suit people that are possibly retired or who have free time during the week with few commitments. It also requires someone who is a competent reader with legible writing, good spelling and punctuation as well as social skills. Guidance and support will be provided and a police check is compulsory. Remuneration is offered by NZQA for the November exam assistance only.
We value support from our community and your help will be appreciated by both students and staff alike. If you are interested then please contact Susan Yardley, Learning Support Coordinator, via email: s.yardley@ kaiapoi.school.nz or phone: 03 375 5004 ext 903

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
