Since ETASNZ is a fairly new club, and, due to the restructure of the extracurricular point system, the
exact details are still being finalised.
However, the predicted requirements are as follows:
In order to get ETASNZ (worth 10 extracurricular points) on your student profile, you need to attend 5
sessions per term, excluding Term 1.
Club Structure
ETASNZ is held every Wednesday lunch (13:40-14:15) in M11, allowing for 35 minutes of club time. For the first
15 minutes,
the leaders will run through a presentation of a school tip; in the next 15 minutes, there will be a Kahoot,
Blooket or Gimkit with rewards (e.g. candy)
to motivate the the students while testing their understanding. During this time, students are free to take
notes and eat, provided that they don't leave a mess.
Goals
There are various goals that ETASNZ wishes to achieve:
To motivate students to aim higher
To help students become well-rounded
To support students becoming our future
Throughout 2026 and beyond, we will strive to make these goals a reality!
Events
The club is planning many events, which will possibly take place around Week 7 of each term. This includes, but
is not limited to:
Quiz Nights - an event where we test knowledge learnt from the club or just general knowledge through
quizzes, with rewards for the winning team.
Sips & Study - an event where we sell drinks such as matcha or lemon tea that students can enjoy while
studying
and also provide some tutors that can help the students.
Design Challenges - an event that involves a competition for the best Notion template in categories such as
a habit tracker,
an extra-curricular organiser, and a progress monitor, that will later be shared with all the students.
Journal Night - an event where we teach students how to journal and light candles for a cozy atmosphere.
Future Plans
Here are some ideas from Emma, the founder of ETASNZ, regarding the club:
Stationery Sales Event - Emma will order inexpensive but high-quality stationery from China, set prices
accordingly in NZD, and sell the stationery along with other leaders of ETASNZ,
both at the beginning and the end of the school year, so that quality stationery can become affordable and
easily accessible by everyone.
Rangitoto Stationery Website - Elaborating on the above idea, she imagines a Rangitoto Website that sells
stationery to students,
which will be able to be collected from the library every week. Some ofrofit from these events will be used
to purchase candy for the club.
Plastic Bottle Recycling Initiative - Much of the profit will be saved up towards a plastic bottle recycling
initiative, which can be turned into filament for 3D printing.
This may become a school service where students can learn how to recycle plastic bottles to turn them into
3D printing filament for the school.
