We are proud to announce that Charlotte Cummuskey has been selected as the recipient of the Spirit of Adventure Scholarship for 2025. This exciting opportunity will see Charlotte represent our school on a life-changing voyage aboard the iconic Spirit of New Zealand.
The Spirit of Adventure programme is a nationally recognised leadership development experience designed to inspire and challenge young New Zealanders. Over the course of a 10-day voyage, students from across the motu work as a team to navigate the ship, build confidence, develop resilience, and step outside their comfort zones. It’s an unforgettable experience that fosters independence, responsibility, and a strong sense of whanaungatanga.
Charlotte was selected from a strong pool of applicants for her outstanding leadership potential, positive attitude, and willingness to embrace new challenges. We know she will make the most of this opportunity and return with valuable experiences to share with her peers.
We would like to express our sincere thanks to Marc Hermann, our 2012 Head Boy, for his generous sponsorship of this scholarship. Marc’s continued connection to our school and his support of student development is deeply appreciated. His contribution ensures that deserving students can access transformative experiences such as this, regardless of financial barriers.
We look forward to hearing about Charlotte’s journey and the impact it will have on her personal and leadership growth.
