Category: Weekly Wrap Up

This week the Wrap Up brings news of achievements for current students, staff and alumni. From Matua Shannon’s exhibition at Pātaka Arts + Musem, to an MPhil graduation from Cambridge University and our very own senior prize-winner lists for 2023, this Wrap Up is bursting with achievement in many forms. And if you are looking for something to work to of your own, why not consider joining WHS staff and students in the Aotearoa Cycle challenge for 2024?

In this week’s Wrap Up we share photos from the Senior Celebration Evening and senior Final Assemblies. We celebrate our senior Art students’ achievements in their end of year exhibition and follow He Kākano as they visit local cafes to practise ordering kai. We share our own canteen’s Kindo app, offering the convenience of online ordering.

This week’s Wrap Up features the work of Year 13 DVC students, and celebrates success for two former WHS staff members. Find out more about Learning Opportunities week and link to the photo galleries for recent events. All this and more in this week’s Wrap Up.
