A fond farewell to our Year 13s

It was a bittersweet moment farewelling our Year 13 students at a special assembly and picnic on Tuesday. Many have been with us since Year 9 and are now stepping out into the world as young adults.

Ms Khan, Mr White and Mr Gray all addressed the students, sharing their personal journeys since graduating school and challenged the students to follow their passions and keep their options open.

The Year 13 students warmly thanked their Home Room teachers and many photos were taken to mark their last day of classes.

Following the formalities the Year 13s shared a BBQ lunch with their teachers at our wharenui. Shirts were signed, stories were shared and some tears were shed, before students headed home to start their study leave.
