Students in Social Sciences have started and developed political parties. Today these parties pitched their manifestos to the students.
 The cast members with Sunflowers Pre School students. Opening night! Shrek the Musical Jr. The cast were fantastic.
Over the last two terms they have been working tirelessly to create a massively successful show. Special thanks and recognition need to go to:
 In Year 10 Social Studies we have been focusing on careers and life after school, such as Uni or work.
We have learnt how to budget our money and how to manage our income efficiently while making compromises to keep us away from debt. At the commencement of the topic we were all given booklets. They helped give us a thorough idea on what we all will eventually go through. Inside the booklets were templates which each of us used to write a C.V. Writing these as well as our budget and career/study information page about what our desires are gave us a realistic perspective for the future. Miss Ross invited Anna Clark and Elysia Churchwood (both previous Hurunui College students) into our class and we also had a wicked skype call with a very intelligent vet, Dr Emily Ryder. They all very kindly spoke to us about how their lives have changed and transitioned since high school and the different paths they took to get where they are. Anna Clark is currently starting her Masters Degree at Otago University, we wish her all the best with this! It was also great to have Beth Hicks, Amber Sowden, Crystal Reed and Jake Topp, who are current Year 11 students come into class and tell us all about their experiences with Year 11 and NCEA Level 1 so far. A huge thank you to Miss Ross for providing us with the awesome subject and outlook! Written by Ebony Varnam and Hannah Evans. Despite a frenetic build up, and thanks to a lot of hard work from a number of people, especially the students, CASA Kapa Haka was a rich experience for all.
From the waiata on the bus trip to our heartfelt performance at RNLS, there were good vibes all round. This was a great opportunity to showcase all our hard work in a nurturing and supportive environment. Hurunui College was well represented and received lots of praise and positive comments from audience members. The beautiful harmonies of our singers and our stirring haka, Tika Tonu, were complimented by an outstanding display of taiaha, courtesy of Phoenix Blackburn. With the support of staff, parents, PTA and students this was truly a whole school effort. Special thanks to Beau McKay and his standout leadership throughout this. Ko te reo kia rere, ko te reo kia tika, ko te reo kia Māori. Let the language flow, let the language be correct, let the language be Māori. |
