At MGC, our manutaki | school leaders—have come together with a shared purpose: to ensure that every student feels a strong sense of belonging within our kura.

We are proud to have 32 dedicated manutaki, each bringing their unique strengths and passions to specialist roles that help grow and enrich different areas of our school community.

Throughout the year, our manutaki will create opportunities for students to:

• Engage in new experiences that challenge and inspire them.

• Contribute to student-led initiatives and projects, fostering leadership and creativity.

• Broaden their horizons, connecting them to the world beyond MGC.

• Give back to the community, strengthening the values of service and manaakitanga.

We are incredibly proud of our leaders — not just for the roles they hold, but for the positive impact they are committed to making within our kura and for every member of our student body. Their passion, dedication, and vision are shaping a future where all students feel seen, heard, and valued.

• Manukura | Head Girl - Kyla Thorstensen
