Congratulations

Last month we held a ceremony for students who were graduating from the Project K programme.

Project K is a 14-month programme for selected year 10 students, aimed at building their self-confidence and maximising their potential. Project K teaches essential life skills like goal-setting, self-reliance, perseverance, general life skills and teamwork. It also promotes good health and a positive attitude.

This is achieved through four programme stages including an induction, a three-week wilderness adventure, a community challenge, and a 12-month individual mentoring partnership with a trained adult mentor.  Throughout the programme the students are supported to set and achieve their goals.

It was a great night and we congratulate all the students who graduated and wish them well for future success. Many thanks to Mateka Pirini and Tui Puki for the scrumptious catering and help setting up for the event.
