Kia ora koutou,

As we come to the end of another year at Carey, we want to say a big well done for all your hard work, learning and commitment throughout 2026. Whether you’re celebrating the completion of your studies, reaching an important milestone in your learning, or preparing to continue your studies in 2027, we hope you take a moment to reflect on how far you’ve come and give thanks for all that God has been doing in and through you this year.

To those completing their studies, congratulations on reaching this significant milestone! We pray that what you’ve learned at Carey will continue to shape your faith, ministry and service in the years ahead. To those continuing their studies, we look forward to journeying with you again next year.

As you head into the summer break, please take note of the following important information about final assessments, grades, re-enrolment and access to CareyOnline resources.

Final assessments, extensions and resubmissions

A reminder that all final assessments are due by Friday 6 November at 11.59pm, unless you have an approved extension.

If you have an approved extension or need to complete a resubmission, please make sure Neroli is aware of your arrangements and knows when your assessment is due. Keeping everyone informed will help ensure your assessment is recorded and followed up appropriately.

We know that the end of semester can be a demanding time, so please remember that Student Support is available if you need help, encouragement or someone to talk to. You don’t have to navigate challenges on your own, even as the academic year draws to a close.

Re-enrolment for 2027

Planning to continue your studies next year? Now is a good time to start thinking about your 2027 enrolment.

Please check in with Neroli if you have questions about your programme, the courses you should take next, or the re-enrolment process. Getting in touch early will help you feel prepared for the year ahead.

Final Grades

Final grades are scheduled to be released on Friday 20 November. Please keep an eye on your usual communication channels for confirmation and any further information about accessing your results.

If you have questions about your grades or are unsure what happens next, please contact Neroli.

Take a well-earned break

Thank you for being part of the Carey community this year. We are grateful for the ways you have contributed to our learning community and for the many different contexts in which you are growing and serving.

As you finish assessments, celebrate the completion of your studies or prepare for another year of learning, we encourage you to make space for rest, connection and time with God. We pray that the coming weeks will bring renewal and refreshment, and that you will continue to grow in confidence as you live out your calling wherever God leads you next.

Ngā mihi nui, and congratulations on all you have achieved this year!

Although we won’t be gathering for Karakia again this year, you can still revisit your favourite messages or catch up on a session you missed by listening to the recordings on our podcast. Why not take a moment to reflect on a message that encouraged or challenged you as you finish the semester?

Kia ora koutou,

Welcome to Week 16! With classes now finished, and our Tuesday chapel and community lunches wrapped up for the year, the focus turns to final assessments. As you work towards the Friday 6 November deadline, remember to pace yourself, make use of Student Support if you need a hand, and reach out to Neroli as soon as possible if you’re concerned you won’t meet the deadline. Please don’t leave it until the last minute, as late requests for extensions may not be accepted. Keep going, encourage one another, and take care of yourselves along the way. Thank you for being part of the Carey community and for making it such a great year. We’re cheering you on as you bring your studies to a close!

In the Weeks Ahead - WK16

Student Support Is Still Here for You

With classes finished and final assessments underway, remember that support is still available. Jarrahmel, Denise, and Neroli can help with assessment planning, workload concerns, or simply offer some encouragement as you work towards the finish line. Amanda is also available to help with library research and finding the resources you need.

A reminder that if you require an extension, this needs to be approved by Neroli so make sure you contact her directly.

If you have questions or would benefit from a conversation, please get in touch with Student Support. You don’t have to navigate the final weeks alone — we’re here to help you finish the year well!
