Thursday: Student led Maths workshops, Hagley Sport and Cowles Basketball! Room 24 students have been running and teaching their own math workshops and Hagley Sport is running smoothly with our incredible team captains and student refs!

Friday: Mentoring, Leadership, Sports practices and Art. The Kōtuku students run a mentoring programme with the junior school, the team captains allow Hagley practices to run successfully and Art is a great, relaxed way to end the week.
