The MHJC Santa Show

The annual 𝐌𝐇𝐉𝐂 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 was this week! 🎅
Students (and staff) performed over the course of two shows; singing Christmas carols, dancing to holiday songs, and spreading lots of cheer. It was a great way to kick start the holidays season and is always a favourite end of year tradition at MHJC. What a show!

Māori and Pasifika Celebration Evening

This past Thursday was our annual Māori and Pasifika Celebration Evening. 🌟
The night was incredible – with exceptional students recognised, with lots of proud whānau in attendance, and with teachers amazed by outstanding performances. Congratulations to all students who performed and took home awards – more details (and photos) to come in our newsletter and yearbook.
