Year 7 and 8 teacher Jodie Kilmister stacking books at Lakeview School yesterday. Teachers have been flat out since last week bringing together resources from Lansdowne and Totara Drive and Hiona Intermediate in the combined school on the old Hiona site. The school had a joint assembly of all 505 pupils and staff for the first time today. Since the three schools were merged last year classes have continued on the three separate sites but from today all classes will be at the expanded Lakeview site.
