Maori and Pacific Island Celebration and Awards Evening 2013
On Tuesday night HBHS celebrated the wonderful achievements of our Maori and Pacific Island students at the 2013 Maori and Pacific Island Celebration and Awards Evening held in a Hall that was filled to capacity with very proud families and friends. It was an absolute privilege to witness the stunning performances of the HBHS and HGHS Kapa Haka Group, the Pasifika Group (pictured right) and special guest artists "Adeaze". We congratulate all of the nominees, finalists and winners and thank them for their tremendous contributions in all aspects of school life.
