Postcards from Tongariro season 🗻

Taitā & Naenae College weathered some stormy conditions on their trips over the past fortnight. We’re proud of the way they took it in their stride & made their circumstances an adventure 🔥 Wainuiomata High School, Heretaunga & Porirua Colleges to come!

Every year our programme delivery starts with the Taita College Orientation Day. It's special that we get to play a part in welcoming & connecting the year 9s to their new journey. And it sets up our excitement for the year ahead! 🔥

Love, hope, peace & joy to your whānau from ours this holiday season! Thank you for playing your part in our journey this year. We’re looking forward to what 2026 has in store 🔥

We want to say a massive thank you to our community for getting behind our 2025 Sports Camp Quiz Night! It was a great evening of fun, competition & support for the group of young people heading away to Matamata next month.

A special thank you to Wellington Phoenix FC & Be Still Massage Therapy for generously donating prizes for the night!

If you would like to, there's still time to give! https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/ignite-sportscamp
