Naenae Intermediate students shine in problem solving
A team of four students from Naenae Intermediate School have performed well enough to be invited to attend the National Finals of Future Problem Solving. Ryan Fraser (12), Lucie Wright (12), Kerryn McAndrews (13), and Thanvi Thirumarban (12) are excited to have this opportunity to spend a weekend exercising their brain cells to compete with the best from around NZ.
Last year, students who had been through the programme at Naenae Intermediate during 2013 and 2014 were school heads or deputy heads at Naenae College, Taita College and Hutt Valley High School. The Future Problem Solving Programme International is a prestigious programme, established by Dr Paul Torrance, a world leader in the study of creativity and creative problem solving.
Educators and researchers from around the world hold the programme in high regard.

Speed limits around NaeNae
Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all
