With 2021 here and our new students finding their way around school, it is so exciting. Firstly, I would like to congratulate and introduce you to our 2021 Sports Prefects, Haylee Jones (on the right) and Jade Fairley.(left) on the photo above.
I am really looking forward to working with two talented and hardworking young women. Both these girls have already shown their commitment to being good leaders and their willingness to give, learn, and help make a difference in sport at RGHS.
Athletics will be our first big school event on the calendar this Thursday 25th February running all day on the sports fields outside the ARENA. There is a real buzz around the place with our old but new Houses starting again in 2021. The House leaders and House Prefects are doing a fantastic job of helping to create the vibes, within their groups.

Rukuwai House Lead by Isobella Simmons and Teacher in charge Miss Puarito Atutahi
