French Friendships

In June, the French Years 12 and 13 students had a 'friendly' quiz with Cambridge High School, Hillcrest High School and Hamilton Girls' High School students. Well done to all who participated; our Dio students were fabulous ambassadors for our kura and showed great prowess, especially in the 'Name the Song' round. We look forward to fostering our relationship with local schools with further events planned in Term 3!

Mary Curran

From the Principal

Dio House Singing is a nostalgic tradition where students sing songs together to foster community and generate lasting memories. The magic of House Singing lies in its ability to create a strong sense of unity and camaraderie among students, staff, and the wider school community. It helps everyone feel like they are part of something larger.
