This engendered much interest from the local community, from past students, and from people all around New Zealand and the world. Two past students approached Principal John Rohs with the desire to form a charitable trust to support the education of today’s students at ‘their’ school. After a year or more of meeting and planning, The Papakura High School Charitable Trust is now launched and ready to start fundraising. The trustees are Jo Clegg (nee Babbington), Clare Fogarty (nee Gasson), Michael Talbot and Rosalie Freeman. Jo, Clare and Michael are all ex-students of Papakura High School, while Rosalie is a member of the Board of Trustees. These people are all passionate about this school and its students and would like to give back to the community by raising funds for the school. The purpose of the Trust is to further the education and welfare of students and the wider school community of Papakura High School, through financial assistance, clothing, books, equipment, use of facilities, counselling, scholarships, outdoor education and other appropriate assistance. You can help us in this mission by spreading the word about the Trust to past students and people who may be interested in assisting us. If you would like to know more about the Trust, or feel that you can assist us in any way please check out our page on the school website, www.papakurahigh.school.nz/charitable-trust , or email us at [email protected]. Please pass on these contact details to others. If you would like a copy of our Trust brochure it is available from the school office, or a digital copy is available by emailing us at the above email address.

For most of the students it was their first time even seeing the snow, which was exciting enough in itself!

On the way back the group stopped at Taupo for lunch and at the Huka Falls. It was an awesome trip and the students involved represented themselves and the school very well the entire time.
