Non-Uniform Day – Term 4

This Thursday, we’ll be having our Non-Uniform Day for Term 4! This event is dedicated to supporting the OSC and MHJC Scholarship Fund. The scholarship helps cover university fees for a student who graduated from both OSC and MHJC.

Let’s come together and make a difference!

Gymnastic Success!

Corey Reed (9C1) had a fantastic competition at the XP New Zealand Gymnastics Championships in Palmerston North over the holidays.

He competed for the region Gymsport Manukau in level 7 Men’s Artistic Gymnastics. He placed 17th overall and his team of 4 placed 4th. A fantastic result in a step up to the senior level.

Finishing Te Wiki o te Reo Māori

MHJC finished Te Wiki o te Reo Māori strong, with our tuakana-teina opportunity for our Year 9 & 10 Te Reo classes who taught our Year 7 students some fun Māori kēmu. Ākonga and kaiako also got to enjoy some delicious hāngī for lunch and dressed up proudly in traditional attire.

Te Wiki o te Reo Māori

MHJC started Te Wiki o te Reo Māori with a fried bread workshop for our Māori ākonga. This was followed by some fresh hot parāoa para (fried bread) and purina mamaoa (steamed pudding) for our kaiako during morning tea.
We look forward to continuing to celebrate Te Wiki o te Reo Māori!
