HBHS hosted the 2011 Maori and Pacific Island Awards in the school hall last night.  The evening was very well attended, and a range of performances were put on for our visitors.  A particular highligh was the fantastic guest speaker, Lale Ieremia, who is a Director of Arrow International Construction Group.
