On Wednesday night, we enjoyed a wonderful night celebrating the academic excellence of our senior students. Two long-standing staff members, Alastair Tod and David Aston were our guest speakers. Retiring after 90-plus years of service between them, they were tasked with sharing with our students words of wisdom and learnings – 1 minute per decade!  The haka for these two gentlemen exemplified the mana they hold among our school community. These two incredible educators, who have given years of energy, passion, wisdom and energy will be sorely missed.

In front of a packed Kaipatiki Theatre, our students can be proud of the successes, awards, trophies, and scholarships they received, alongside friends and families. The Special and Supreme award winners were :
