The House staff and senior leaders have enjoyed welcoming our new boarders and their families to our hostel community.

It has been an action packed start, with a family BBQ, full House activities and settling into the structure and routines of boarding. This year our domestic boarders range from Cromwell to Rangiora and everywhere in between. Our International boarders from Germany, Japan, Hong Kong, China and Thailand! 

Family BBQ

On Sunday 2nd our 'The House' opened to all boarders and we were joined by our families for dinner. A big thank you to Mick, Amelia and Annie who helped out on the BBQ and our kitchen team for providing a great meal. We look forward to our next event with our boarding families.
