The Story of eTime
The idea behind eTime's establishment came from
Faye Le Cren.
Faye had been a primary school principal in a number of schools prior to establishing eTime, including being the founding principal of Selwyn Ridge Primary School in Tauranga. Under Faye's leadership, this school established a culture of excellence in 21st Century learning, which has continued to grow since she left.
eTime's focus is to "lead innovation in learning" by providing vision, leadership and practical skills for
principals,
teachers
and
students.
eTime opened at the beginning of 2004, with support from Guy Pope-Mayell, his wife Suzanne, the
Cookie Time Charitable Trust,
and Faye's husband
Chris, who has a background in senior management of secondary schools. The
historic villa at 17 Armagh Street,
in the heart of Christchurch, was transformed into a high-tech education centre with the latest technologies and furniture. Faye and Chris are eTime's managing directors. Guy is the third director, representing the Cookie Time Charitable Trust.
Since opening, eTime has grown considerably and now provides a wide range of professional development services for schools (Boards of Trustees, principals and teachers) as well as a range of innovative programmes for school students, aimed at developing learning skills, increased motivation and enthusiasm for learning.
eTime's clients include more than half of Canterbury's schools as well as schools spread throughout New Zealand. Up until the February 2011 earthquake eTime staff worked with schools either from our building at 17 Armagh Street and at 21 Worcester Boulevard, as well as in schools. Our office is now temporarily located at 229A Mt Pleasant Road, Christchurch.
In February 2012, eTime will move into a brand new building, currently under construction at 9 Sir Gil Simpson Drive, in the Canterbury Technology Park. This new building will enable eTime to continue to provide a "state of the art" learning environment and the latest technologies for principals, teachers and students, plus a lovely view over the Russley Golf Course!
eTime's contribution to supporting and improving the quality of education in Canterbury was recognised by the business community in 2006 at the
Champion Canterbury Awards
when it was awarded the Champion Service award in the small enterprise section. eTime also reached the finals of these awards in 2005 and 2009.
