Principal Message

Ko Remutaka te maunga e ru nea toko ngakau

Ko te Awakairangi te awa e mahia nei e maharahara

No Kotiranga oku tupuna

Ko Campbell clan toko hapu

Ko Murdoch toko whānau


No reira, tena koutou, tena koutou, tena tatou katoa


It is both an honor and a privilege to begin my principalship at Heretaunga College and to be part of this great school community.


Secondary school is an exciting place for young people to develop their potential, pathways and talents and Heretaunga College is an excellent place for these aspects of secondary school life.  


The school provides a wide range of dynamic experiences in a caring environment so young people can learn and grow.


I look forward to meeting you this term in some capacity.
