St Hilda's Collegiate School


Kia ora koutou

It has been a week of weather extremes, from snow showers at the beginning to sunshine at the end. 

The school has been a busy place as we near the end of term. It was nice to be able to take time in chapel to think about what Matariki is about and to be grateful for the past and to contemplate future plans while also enjoying the present. 

The midwinter Christmas theme that greeted us all in the archway today was a lovely way to end the week.

Enjoy a restful weekend.
