Universities Visiting HGHS

This is your chance to hear about what courses they offer and what the entrance requirements are, etc. Even if you're not sure what tertiary study you want to do when you leave school, come and listen - it may give you some ideas you haven't thought about.

Downer Toa Takitini Programme

We are very lucky to have five akōnga on the Downer Toa Takitini Programme. This is an 18-month programme that puts students through their driving licences to enable them to be fully licenced by the time they get into the workforce. Last year our students all gained their learners licence and have had driving lessons provided over the last few months. They are now ready to sit their restricted licences. This Thursday they attended a day wānanga that covered basic car maintenance and road safety.

Dingle Foundation - Career Navigator Programme

This week 20 Year 12 and 13 students had the opportunity to attend an introduction session and sign up for the Career Navigator programme. This programme is for students who are unsure of what they might like to do when they leave school. The students attend 9 sessions throughout the year and get matched with mentors, go on workplace visits, and learn employability and interviewing skills through lots of fun activities.
