The annual Year 9 Tauwhare Pa visits have started for 2025. These visits are a great opportunity for our students to connect with the local mana whenua, Ngāti Haua and experience Māori culture firsthand.
The visits help students learn about important traditions, take part in activities, and develop a better understanding of the local community. It’s a special chance for our Year 9 students to form stronger relationships and gain a deeper appreciation of Hillcrest High School.
We’re looking forward to another successful year of marae visits for our Year 9s!
Trips 3,4, & 5 will take place on March 3, 4, & 5.
3rd March – 9PT, 9QI, 9SC
4th March – ILC/PAC
5th March – 9GR, 9MN, 9TH
