Rutherford Intermediate School

Absences

If your child is going to be absent, we kindly ask parents and caregivers to give us a call by 9:00am at the latest, or use the Hero app.This must be done every day that your child is absent. Students who show a pattern of absence or lateness without good reason may be referred to the Truancy Service.

Hero App

Social Media

Rutherford Junior High School is on Facebook and Youtube! Feel free to follow us on both of these.

Cellphones

Rutherford Intermediate does not allow students to have cellphones at school. Students who bring their phones to school are required to hand their phones in to the office at the beginning of the school day and pick them up at the end. They are not allowed to use their phones during the day. If a student is observed with a phone, they will be asked to take it to the office for a parent to collect.

Lunches

As part of the Ka Ora Ka Ako Healthy School Lunch programme, we have great lunches supplied free from Whanganui Girls College everyday for our students.

Chromebooks

Our students live in a developing digital world where they must continue building digital fluency skills, General Literacy and Aotearoa citizenship.

All students are required to have an up-to-date Chromebook to engage in our Digital Learning Programmes.

At Rutherford, you can order the Chromebook bundle for your child by following the link HERE

School Docs

The school works with SchoolDoc to maintain, update and review our policies. Policies of Ruther Intermediate can be found on the School Docs link HERE.
