HEAD STUDENTS MILLI SULLIVAN & THOMAS PATTERSON

‘We pride ourselves on our cultural diversity and we aim to be united as one within the school and one within our community.’

THE WELL-ANTICIPATE­D YEAR

of 2021 has begun, and we start with a greater appreciati­on for the wide array of opportunit­ies this year may hold, all going well, after we were deprived of these due to Covid last year.

As we step into our new-found roles of Head Students, with immense gratitude, we look forward to working in tandem with our deputies Easterlin Faamausili and Alex Rielly, staff and students across all years, towards our goals set for the year.

These goals entail focusing on the growing cultural diversity at Ashburton College and closing the gap that lives between year groups. We are striving to keep the eagerness and enthusiasm that was formed as a result of last year’s lockdown, as we keep those preexistin­g connection­s with the wider community strong.

As we work with our fellow

Year 13 leaders we are already seeing consistent goal-setting, and especially a focus on our Junior School students, aiming for them to have the best possible experience at this opportunit­y-rich school.

Here at Ashburton College we pride ourselves on our cultural diversity and we aim to be united as one within the school and one within our community.

Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini.

My strength is not as an individual, but as a collective.
