The front cover of Panorama 2024 was created by Year 11 Visual Arts student Zhiting (Jennie) Hu. This painting comes from a unit which explores the Māori concept of Tūrangawaewae, reflecting on the places they belong, drawing on both the ‘place they stand’ now, in Aotearoa, and their own cultural background and genealogy.
Tēnā koutou e te whānau whānui, e te hapori miharo o Rangitoto. E ngā manuhiri, nau mai haere mai ki tēnei hui. Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa.
The 2024 Senior Prizegiving was a remarkable evening, celebrating the incredible achievements of our senior students. This year, over 500 awards were presented in recognition of the hard work, dedication, and talents displayed by Rangitoto students. From academic success to cultural and sporting excellence, our students shone in many different settings.
A highlight of the evening was the announcement of substantial scholarships provided by universities in New Zealand and overseas, along with the generous support of the PTA Charitable Trust. With academic achievement remaining the cornerstone of Rangitoto, it is encouraging to see students well-prepared to transition into the next phase of their lives. As the world evolves, students are constantly adapting. From using encyclopaedias to “Googling it” to now “asking AI,” the tools may change, but the focus on knowledge remains essential. Cognitive science reminds us that critical thinking is rooted in a deep understanding of knowledge itself. For our students, a sequenced, knowledge-rich curriculum fosters the development of this critical thinking and prepares them for future success.
The success of Rangitoto’s students would not be possible without the tireless efforts of our dedicated teachers. Their commitment to creating a challenging curriculum, one that goes beyond the everyday experience, ensures that our students become the leaders of tomorrow. This philosophy is now being embraced by the Ministry of Education nationwide which is a positive step forward for education in New Zealand.
In addition to academic excellence, Rangitoto continues to strengthen its place within the wider community. This year saw students involved in a wide array of activities, from building electric go-karts to the success of
our student-led cultural programmes. The kapa haka group reached new heights at Te Ahurea, while our Pacifica students shared their knowledge with local feeder schools. Furthermore, Rangitoto was proud to be involved in a meaningful initiative in Samoa, where staff and Board members attended the opening of a new classroom at the Campus of Hope, a charity supporting female survivors of violence, which Rangitoto students had a hand in building. We eagerly await welcoming some of these students to Rangitoto in the near future.
Service to the community continues to be a major focus at Rangitoto. Our 32 service groups have raised $80,000 for the Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, built and maintained a vegetable garden for Knightsbridge Village residents, and donated produce to families in need. Year 13 students led the Student Volunteer Army, with nine students logging over 200 hours of service each. The school also saw numerous students competing in academic competitions, Olympiads, and mentoring programmes, further expanding their horizons beyond the classroom.
In the Performing Arts, Rangitoto once again proved to be a beacon of excellence. With over 70 performance groups, students had ample opportunities to showcase their talents on national stages. The world-class music programme earned 44 competition awards, and our actors found success at the Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festival and regional Theatresports competitions. The production of Faustus stood out as a highlight of the year, while our dancers won five national titles at Dance NZ Made, with three students securing prestigious overseas opportunities.
Sports were another arena where Rangitoto students, both past and present, excelled. With four alumni competing at the Olympics and one in the America’s Cup, they paved the way for the current cohort. This year, Gabrielle Doyle and Kalea Norton represented New Zealand in water polo and volleyball, respectively. Monique Wieruszowski set a new national record in the 100m breaststroke, while sailors Joe Leith and Joshua Ferrissey won a bronze medal at the Sailing World Championships in Rio de Janeiro. Across 29 different sports codes and 173 school teams, Rangitoto athletes achieved five national titles in swimming, beach volleyball, volleyball, diving, and table tennis.
As we reflect on these incredible achievements, it is also important to look toward the future. Our staff have been exceptional once again, tirelessly committed to the success of our students. This year, we say farewell to Jo Yates and Sally Stockton, who retire after years of dedicated service. We wish them, and all staff moving on to new opportunities, the very best for the future. Their contributions to Rangitoto will be remembered for years to come. My personal thanks go to the Rangitoto School Board. I appreciate your expertise and support in aiming to deliver the best possible education for our community. The countless hours you give have an enormous impact.
To our Year 13 students: this has been a year to remember. You have come together as a cohort, setting the tone for the school and achieving outstanding results. We hope you will stay connected to Rangitoto, proud of who you have become, and go on to make a positive impact on the world.
Tuia ki te rangi Rangitoto ki raro
Connect me to my ancestors and knowledge above. May Rangitoto be my foundation.
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy end to 2024. Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa.
Patrick Gale, Principal
Tēnei ngā mihi nui ki a koutou

Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou.
As one door closes, another opens and so we find ourselves at the end of another wonderful year reflecting on a year of challenges, learning, and all-round success in the academic and co-curricular life of the school.
Through the course of the school year, many of you will have attended our various evenings of performances and celebrations culminating in the Awards Evening and the Senior Prizegiving. Like me, you were no doubt humbled to hear about the successes of our students and to watch in awe as they performed. As I did on the night, I wish to thank everyone who has been connected to our kura for the role you have played in supporting and encouraging our students which has helped to make Rangitoto College the exceptional place that it is.
To our staff and particularly our teachers, on behalf of the Board of Rangitoto College, I wish to express our deepest gratitude. You are more than educators—you are mentors. You provide guidance and I see that you are a source of immense inspiration to our students. Every day, you share your expertise, your passion, and commitment to excellence in your classrooms. You set high expectations and provide a nurturing environment to allow our students to excel. Not only do you teach your subject, many of you also lead a great number of co-curricular activities that take you away from your own families and help enrich the lives of our children far beyond the classroom. We are incredibly grateful for the countless hours you invest in our children.
To our parents and caregivers; we recognise that you are your children’s first and most important teachers and we thank you for entrusting us with your children. One of the many goals of our kura is to foster a supportive partnership which we believe will benefit our students and create a stronger and supportive community as a whole. This is an ongoing journey that will hold us all accountable to each other. Next year is the school board elections and I encourage those of you who believe in the future of our school and our students to stand and offer your expertise and experience to grow and nurture our school.
On that note, I would like to extend my personal and sincere thanks to our Board for their countless hours of service. Their commitment
goes far beyond regular meetings—they oversee the school’s financial concerns, ensure sustainability, and support and challenge our leadership team in the execution of the strategic plan.
The expertise that our parent community brings to the Board has been invaluable, benefiting our school community and allowing us to move forward with purpose and stability. Our Board acknowledges the challenges we continue to face as a school, particularly as we manage unprecedented growth in our roll. This growth, while a testament to our school’s reputation and the success of our programmes, has placed added pressure on our facilities, our teachers, and our resources. We are fully aware of the impact this has on our space, infrastructure, and, above all, the sense of community. Rest assured, we are working diligently to address these challenges, investing in our facilities, and seeking ways to ensure our growth strengthens rather than compromises the exceptional experience that our students, staff, and families expect and deserve.
To our Principal, Mr Patrick Gale, thank you for your visionary leadership and tireless commitment to excellence. Under your guidance, our school has continued to thrive. Our students have embraced opportunities to reach their full potential. Your leadership inspires our staff, our students, our board, and our nation to continually push the boundaries of what is possible.
To our Senior Leadership Team, thank you for your dedication and for all that you do, often behind the scenes, to make our school a remarkable place of learning and growth.
Finally, to our graduating students, celebrate the big and the small wins. As you reflect on your time at Rangitoto College, I hope you remember the journey to get to this moment. You have navigated challenges, hopefully, made friends along the way, some may have also parted ways as you have discovered your strengths and affirmed your values, and learned lessons that have helped to shape who you are today. You have shown resilience and determination which are qualities that will serve you well in the years to come.
Congratulations for all your achievements to date, continue to be brave, continue to be curious, and never stop learning.
Kia kaha, kia maia, kia manawanui. Kia ora tatou katoa.

The PTA has had a successful year of supporting the Rangitoto College community in 2024. The year kicked off with busy summer sales led by our PTA Second-hand Uniform Shop Manager, Lynda Twidle and assisted by many parent helpers. The online Hand Me Round system allows parents to upload details of the uniforms that they want to sell. It also allows prospective buyers to check the stock level online before visiting the second-hand shop. If you have not already checked out the new online store, please visit: https://handmeround.azurewebsites.net/RTTC/home.
Summer sales and uniform sales during term time provide the main source of income for the PTA and allow the association to contribute towards various causes for the benefit of Rangitoto College students. In addition to the van previously donated by the PTA, this year we have funded the purchase of a trailer that can be used for carrying sports and music equipment when students travel to offsite venues to compete or participate in events. Furthermore, the PTA sponsored the purchase of five C-pens that can be used by students who struggle with reading.
As well as supporting annual events such as the Scholarship Breakfast, Parent/Teacher Conferences, and Enrolment Evenings, the PTA and the school organised a Chinese Parents Evening in March. The purpose of the event was to support the Rangitoto College Chinese community by providing school-related information to Chinese parents and invite conversations between parents, teachers, and PTA committee members. Thanks to our Deputy Principal, Mrs Julie Strang for organising and coordinating the event. We would also thank our Principal, Mr Patrick Gale for acknowledging the importance of the event, Ms Hong Zhang for presenting the key information to the parents that night, as well as Mr Glenn Murphy (Head of Department in ESOL) for explaining the complicated English Syllabus for Year 9 to Year 13 students. The PTA intends to support similar events in future years.
This year we have welcomed John Ye as our new Treasurer and a few other new Committee Members. We also have to say goodbye and thank you to several long-serving Committee Members who will leave the PTA at the end of the year when their children graduate from school. New volunteers and parents, who are interested in hearing from Mr Patrick Gale about upcoming developments and challenges within the school, are encouraged to join the committee at our Annual General Meeting which is held in November each year (with the date advertised in the school’s community newsletter). Members of the Rangitoto Community are also welcome to join our committee meetings held throughout the year. To learn more, please visit: https://www.rangitoto.school.nz/parentsstudents/parent-teacher-association/.
Looking back on our five years at Rangitoto College, I am filled with gratitude for everyone in the class of 2025. Being chosen as one of the four head students at Rangitoto was the best news I could ever receive, but knowing I was going to wake up every day to lead such an amazing group of people was what kept me pushing forward. The wonderful memories we’ve created together make it tough to say goodbye. While we celebrate our academic, sporting, and cultural achievements and the completion of our high school education, it’s the friendships and connections that have truly made this time memorable. I also want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our teachers and staff for their unwavering support and kindness. We’ve shared laughter, supported each other during challenges, and cheered each other on, and these moments will stay with me forever. I’m incredibly proud of each of you and wish you all bright futures ahead. The lessons and memories from our time here will guide us as we embark on our next adventures so let’s embrace the future with open hearts.

As the school year draws to a close, we reflect on the many experiences we have had. There have been many opportunities we have been fortunate enough to experience due to the dedication of our families and teachers. Throughout our time we have been fortunate enough to have numerous opportunities through sports, cultural activities, performing arts, and leadership. In our last year of school, we strengthened our connections as we gained a newfound freedom as seniors. Throughout my time I was able to gain a deeper understanding of my culture by being actively involved in Māori spaces. I was grateful to have many opportunities in sports as I was fortunate enough to be in premier teams and in leadership spaces I was able to develop my skills and grow as a person. But our journey does not end here and we have an exciting future ahead of us. As we finish 13 years of school, acknowledge the challenges you have overcome and the memories you have gained along the way. To the students remaining make the most of every opportunity that is presented to you and cherish the time you have left. To those moving on, seize every opportunity that is presented to you as it may not come along again. We are grateful to everyone who has supported the class of 2024 along the way and all the best to everyone in your future endeavours.

As my time at Rangitoto College comes to an end, I feel so fortunate and proud to be graduating with the class of 2024. I am thankful for the incredible cohort I’ve had alongside me for the last five years. As we leave, the friendships and experiences we’ve shared will remain with us
for years to come. I extend my genuine thanks to everyone I’ve met during my time at Rangitoto. The amazing group of friends we have had around us has been a great source of support, alongside carving out our college experience. I am deeply appreciative of the opportunities and experiences that Rangitoto College has offered us, along with all the families and volunteers for their unwavering support. A special thank you goes to our teachers, who have not only taught us within their subjects but also in life outside the classroom walls. I know we will carry this learning with us. As I come to an end to my time at Rangitoto, I’ve come to understand that finding ways to not only benefit ourselves but also the ones around us is true success. As we step into the world, let’s remember that our education continues beyond our studies; it lays the foundation for our future. Congratulations, class of 2024! Thank you all, and I wish us success and happiness as we embark on this next exciting chapter of our lives.
- Hamish Fleming
Time flies when you’re having fun, and I think it’s fair to say that year 13 has flown by quicker than anyone could have ever imagined. I have always struggled with the idea that we go to school for 13 years of our lives, and on one random Friday, we simply finish. This has always been a major source of stress and unease as I dreaded the day when I would say goodbye to my most steady source of routine, and enter a world where I would be expected to fend for myself. However, as the class of 2024 prepares to finish their time at Rangitoto, I no longer feel paralysed by fear and a sense of loss. I understand something I couldn’t in previous years, and that is the acceptance when being ready to move on. As fulfilling and rewarding as my time has been, every good thing must end, and I finally recognise that that time is now. The incredible members of staff and our fellow cohort have been invaluable in preparing us for the big, wide world, arming us with knowledge, and filling us with memories we will forever cherish. Like so many others, I feel not only sadness and nostalgia upon closing an incredible chapter of our lives, but excitement to begin the next. I cannot wait to watch and support from afar as the class of 2024 fulfils their potential and achieves incredible things.

At the start of the year, we welcomed five new teachers to the department. Mun Yee Chong teaching Digital Technology and Multimedia Technology, Hugo Lam and Tyler Vinton both teaching Economics and IB Economics, and Lynn Basri and Alicia Jooste both teaching Business Studies. We farewelled Sam Griffith at the end of Term 1 as he headed off overseas and we welcomed Stacey Tai soon after.
This year, our Year 9 and 10 BEC students embraced the opportunity to explore the contents of Commerce, engaging with Business Studies, Economics, and Accounting in both theoretical and practical ways.
For the Year 9s, the standout project was their rebranding task. They selected an existing foreign-owned business and rebranded it for a New Zealand audience. This exercise sparked creativity, with logos transforming into representations of kiwi birds and kiwifruit and slogans adopting Kiwi flair with “sweet as” themes. This project highlighted the importance of tailoring marketing strategies to target specific audiences.
Our Year 10s were particularly engaged this year as they were given the—somewhat rare—opportunity of experiencing how a change in government impacts the national budget. They dug into different policies and saw firsthand how these can impact them and others in different ways. One of the biggest surprises was how cutting individuals’ taxes can have both positive and negative effects. This approach helped them understand the tricky balance between government decisions and their everyday lives.
The Year 9 students have been working through our newly written course where they have had the opportunity to use their creative digital talents. In the first part of the course, they have been learning to use a range of multimedia applications to make vector graphics, animations, and video content to develop newsletters. Students have also learnt JavaScript code and applied it in an artistic way to generate shapes and patterns applied to merchandise. Year 10 students have worked through several projects, one being to design and develop a game which students get to share with their peers and friends.
The introduction of the Rangitoto Diploma provided flexibility and allowed for an increased depth of learning in key areas. As well as reporting financial information for a sole trader the processing of transactions was expanded and included an introduction to an accounting software package. Students looked at community organisations and how the decision-making process was influenced by their pūtake and stakeholders.
Year 12 students learnt to use Xero accounting software to set up an accounting system and record transactions for a fictional business. An increased focus on accounts receivable and inventory subsystems illustrated how an accounting system can be used to manage important parts of a business operation.
The Year 13 curriculum introduces students to partnership and company accounting, as well as the specialised areas of job costing and management decision making. They also examined the profitability, liquidity, cash management, and share market performance of a company listed on the NZ stock exchange before making an investment recommendation regarding shares in that business.
The new Rangitoto Diploma instilled a focus on practical work skills. The hiring process topic placed each student in the shoes of a job applicant, from creating a CV to being interviewed by their peers. We also introduced business case studies to develop workplace communication skills through researching current markets and creating group presentations. The Market Day for our Year 11s showcased both local and international cultures on the day of a big rugby game hosted by the school. Our Year 12 and 13 students set up shop at the Browns Bay, Takapuna, and Catalina Bay Sunday markets, selling their innovative and sustainable products.
Year 11 students visited the Northern Rocks bouldering facility, gaining an understanding of a local business’s operations while also getting hands-on experience of their service. Year 13 students took a trip to the Chelsea Sugar Refinery to examine in-depth the manufacturing of their globally recognised sugar exports, watching quality management and innovation in action.
We are also proud of our Business Studies students for showing competitive spirit. One group in the National Secondary School Case Competition presented their research to a panel of industry experts and were ranked in the top five nationally. Well done to Rui-Yi Ong, Summer Bailey, Sini Patel, and Alessandra Sng. Year 13 students also represented Rangitoto College in the University of Auckland’s Pursuits Night and came a respectable fourth, beating many other Auckland schools.
The new Rangitoto Diploma enabled us to design our own course at Year 11, so we covered microeconomic basics like demand and supply and introduced students to macroeconomics. By covering key issues like inflation, employment, and economic growth we will have helped reduce the step up to Year 12 Economics. Students visited the Tip Top Factory, gave briefings on the state of the economy to the “Minister of Finance”, and planned the steps New Zealand should take to become a rock star economy again.
In Year 12 and 13 we brought back the two-day Wellington trip where students visited the Reserve Bank, Statistics NZ, Trade and Enterprise, and the Beehive. Nearly 60 students took part in the NZ Economics Competition. Organised by the University of Auckland, these students were the High Distinction winners: James Feng, Eileena Bao, Rick Huang, Summer Bailey, Michael Ratliff, Leo Wang, and Joshua Wang. Edward Fung, Yolanda Zhang, Michael Ratliff, and Jewel Wu represented the college in Economics at the University of Auckland Pursuits Night. Congratulations to the team who came a very credible third place. The
growth in students wanting to take Scholarship Economics has resulted in our biggest ever field of candidates. The addition of an Economics extension class at Year 11 next year will ensure this interest continues for years to come.
Students of the new Year 11 Diploma course have had more time than ever before to learn and refine their skills in web design. They have created a variety of visually stunning websites promoting the SPCA. They have also acquired an in-depth knowledge of Python coding and problem-solving skills and applied them to many programming challenges.
The new Year 12 Generic Computing course is in its second year and the students this year have been applying their graphic design skills to develop a range of desktop publishing designs based on school events. Year 13 students have been extending their graphic and image editing skills to develop and publish websites based on tourism.
Senior Multimedia students in Years 12 and 13 have explored a wide range of digital projects including 3D modelling of industrial design concepts, digital video special effects, animations, and game designs. Our Year 12 Programming students have further refined their coding skills, learning some advanced coding concepts. They also learnt how to create and setup local area networks and deepened their understanding of artificial intelligence, computer security, and error control. While most of the learning takes place through portfolio projects students have also been studying topics such as Computer Security, Artificial Intelligence, and Error Control. Year 13 students developed GUI applications with Python, C#, and MySQL databases, alongside exploring algorithm complexity and tractability, big data, and network communication protocols.
Throughout the year, junior and senior DVC students have worked diligently within a range of spatial (architectural) and product (industrial) design contexts. It has been heartening to see so many students become increasingly proficient in articulating their own design ideas, via freehand drawing and rendering, and digital visual communication techniques. The local community has provided a wealth of opportunity to design for, including the designing of architectural spaces and landscaped environments and the associated products relating to them.
There is a sense of connection and real-world relevance to the design contexts on offer. Students are interested in designing for people, as people are central to what is being designed. Students were able to design innovative, inspirational, and highly relevant outcomes, with consideration given to the aesthetic and functional characteristics.
Many of these fantastic design outcomes were displayed at an end-of-year function attended by students, friends, and family.
Orating eloquently about novels, and pontificating about punctuation across the lunch table may not be everyone’s ham sandwich, but whether it’s Hogwarts or Hitchcock, it’s one of the things that makes being an English teacher so much fun. Our love of language brought most of us into English teaching and it’s the thing we most want to pass on to our students, whether this is through helping them develop the obsessive reading habits that most of us have, or through helping them develop creatively.
A side of language that we value highly is writing and at present, our novel, creative writing, and letterwriting clubs are very active, as is the journalism club, all avenues for students to express themselves with the power of words. Another way the love of language is expressed is through argument, and it has been a joy to see renewed life being breathed into debating at the college, with great numbers of students joining under the enthusiastic leadership of one of our new teachers, Alex Birchall.
2024, with the first go around of the Rangitoto Diploma, has been a whirlwind, rushing by so fast we’re not quite sure where it has gone. Teachers and students have worked hard, and this has paid off in the great quality of work being produced.
One of our goals for 2024 was to offer our Year 11 students an interesting, challenging Diploma course and we feel that we have succeeded in this. The course is a good combination of Shakespeare, New Zealand poetry, a novel study, and creative writing. We want our students to experience a taste of the best world literature, to learn from the past but also from their New Zealand present. The challenge for us is to choose excellent texts that will make an impression on students and enable them to develop their understanding of themselves as well as the world beyond our shores.
E-Block continues to be an extremely busy - and at times noisy - place, hosting many tutorials, clubs, and rehearsals. The wide and welcoming corridors are a popular social gathering place for students, many of whom play cards and other games at lunchtime. It has been wonderful to see all the social alternatives to phones and computers this year. The Junior Shakespeare production for 2024 is Twelfth Night, creatively produced by Lauren Rabak and Patrick Yam. Like every Junior Shakespeare night, this is long anticipated, much prepared for, and heaps of fun for cast, crew, and audience.
Also much anticipated is the trip in May, when our senior extension classes have the opportunity to go to the Auckland Writers’ Festival. This year they enjoyed hearing children’s writer Steph Matuku, novelist Airana Ngarewa, and Elizabeth Acevedo, a slam poet and novelist, speak about their work and lives. The Year 13 English students’ annual Literature Day on August 9th was also a great success. We were lucky enough to host ex-Rangitoto student, journalist, and poet Jamie Trower, for a second year, who performed his beautiful poetry and
spoke to the students about his life. The audience also had the opportunity to listen to Jess Louden, a trained Shakespearean actor who has experience both in New Zealand and on Broadway, as well as in film and television. She shared her ideas about the relevance of Shakespeare to modern life, and discussed the acting industry and how stories are brought to life on screen.
This year, we were blessed with fabulous new staff in the English Department, including the wonderful Ellen O’Brien who taught in the UK before returning to New Zealand, and the super-enthusiastic Alex Birchall who joined us from Parnell College. Our new beginning teachers, Patrick Yam, Lauren Rabak, and Jessie Meng, who also teaches Japanese, have all settled in well and are doing a beautiful job. This year, we have also had the pleasure of hosting Zoe Kyne, on a year-long beginning teacher programme at Rangitoto College, teaching English and Media Studies. Helen McCann, who works mostly in the ESOL Department, also teaches a class of English, and she has been an outstanding addition to the college, with expertise in the field of bilingual and multilingual students. We’re fortunate to have her. Melanie Williams-Taylor arrived in Term 3 to pick up the classes of Sienna Davis, who has gone on an extended OE. It’s a real pleasure to have Melanie in the department, and we wish Sienna all the best on her many adventures.
We have a sad farewell to make this year as our much loved colleague, Mila Pasfield, is moving to the Social Science Department. Mila has always had a deep and abiding love for Art History, and has taught it, and Classics, many times during her time in the English Department. From 2025, however, she is going to be one of the Specialist Classroom Teachers for the college, and will also be picking up the role of Curriculum Leader for Art History. She will therefore be moving completely into the Social Science Department. It would be fair to say that our loss is their gain, as Mila is a brilliant colleague and teacher who is loved and respected by her students. We will miss her a great deal and wish her a very sad and fond au revoir. We only hope she can survive all the historical, geographical, and sociological facts that fill the Social Science lunchroom in place of our fun-filled discussions about onomatopoeia.
As always, our wonderful relief teacher, Sue Russell, jumped in this year to help us out when a gap opened up in the Department. Sue’s generosity, flexibility, and professionalism is second to none and we are so grateful to her for the amazing work she has done this year. Our students are lucky to have her. Thank you, Mrs Russell!
And, of course, the year would not be complete without thanking the person who keeps everything running and all of us on our toes: Kathy Pillbrow! Kathy is one of the kindest people I have ever worked with, who genuinely cares about the people she works with. Thank you for all that you do for us, Kathy, for running the Resource Centre so efficiently and for keeping our department in ship shape. You are the best!
To my wonderful colleagues in the English and Media Departments, it has been a great honour and pleasure to serve as Head of Department for the last twenty years. Thank you for your hard work, collegiality, and generosity over the years. I have loved being part of such a wonderful team and look forward to continuing as a teacher in the department in the future. I wish you all a slow, hot summer filled with fun times, good friends, and lots of great novels. Aroha nui.
Dramatic chase scenes, dark alleyways, desperate actions, dramatic tension, and a little bit of dark irony were the ingredients of our Year 13 film noir productions this year. Our students always put in a massive effort to complete their films and were once again phenomenally successful, creating great cinematic moments of drama. Outside of this, they also explored the current shake up of various media industries, analysing the constant changes, and impact that the ‘digital disruption’ has caused upon traditional media.
Our Year 12s enjoyed a year of horror—not literally! This year our students explored the development of the horror genre and developed supernatural horror films for their production. Each year our students turn various parts of the school into dark, sinister places and work to bring life to their ideas. Once again, it is always great to see the creative process of our students as they learn the art of visual storytelling and how to affect an audience.
The introduction of the Rangitoto Diploma at Year 11 gave students the opportunity to explore a wider variety of topics. The students started the year by looking into their own media usage and then dived into the language of advertising where students produced their own advertising campaign for a social issue, by creating an advert. The students enjoyed this opportunity and created some fun and original ideas. Alongside this, they also explored aspects of the news media, language of film, reality TV, and film production.
It has been a notable year for the ESOL Department. For the first time ever there were over 400 students across our courses. Our department welcomed two specialist ESOL teaching assistants: Cy Tsang and Wu Liu. We were also joined by Helen McCann and Melody Harries on the teaching staff. Sadly, we said goodbye to Thomas Shadbolt who was a key member of our teaching team and the ESOL Pre-Intermediate leadteacher for many years.
This year was also the first for two new courses: ESOL Reception (ESOLRE) and ESOL Rangitoto Diploma (ESOLRD). The Rangitoto Diploma course replaced our NCEA level 1 English-through-ESOL course. In ESOLRD, students move beyond a predominantly language learning focus. They study literature by learning how to explain the use of language techniques in a novel and a film. Students also learn how to present a speech and respond to independently chosen literature (both fiction and non-fiction).
As we do in each issue of Panorama, we celebrate some of the work our ESOL Pre-Intermediate students do in their first study of poetry. On this page you can see some of their haiku from the topic ‘seasons’.
The roles of digital-based technologies (such as AI) continue to gain significance in English language learning and English literature studies. It is entirely foreseeable that language learning, as we know it, will be unnecessary in the future because AI will allow real-time transference (‘translation’) between cultures and languages. It is plausible that AI will have the capacity to contextualise culture-based decisions it has to make for language learners so that it can effectively communicate ideas between users of languages for them.
The reality of now, however, is that students are required to be active learners of culture and language because the current technologies we have are not fully capable of transferring ideas between cultures. Furthermore, students will be in situations where they cannot rely on Chat GPT or Google Translate to transfer ideas between English and their ‘culture/ language 1’. Active learning means grabbing every moment that presents itself to practise the use of English. It means critically thinking for yourself about the choices you make with vocabulary and grammar in both your first culture/language and English. Active language learning is not easy and not everyone is a natural-born language and culture learner. Perseverance and an active-thinking approach are critical.
At Rangitoto College, an advantage students have for learning English is that they are surrounded by English and anglophone cultural contexts. The ESOL Department encourages students to be active learners of English language and its associated cultures. Immersing yourself in the language and culture you want (need) to learn, and actively thinking about how you communicate in and transfer ideas between your cultures and languages, are steps you can take towards becoming an active language learner. Yes, it is hard graft (really hard work), but the rewards you can gain by approaching your language learning in this way are immense.
Over the summer holidays, get out into the world and be an active learner of English language and New Zealand cultures. This will benefit you in the year ahead.
Winter Haiku by Camilla Yu
Winter has gone now
A time of rebirth and change –Wake me up from sleep
Cicadas chirping
Who is the kid of the sun?
Lotus has its charm
The leaves are falling
The crunch sound of golden ones
Late autumn has come
Cold weather comes fast
Fire lighting up the fireplace
It’s quite warm inside
usual, the Gateway and Pathways to Employment programmes had another busy year with two classes of Year 12 students and two classes of Year 13 students. Students were supported by their teachers in these classes along with the Careers team.
Using various techniques, the start of the year involved students learning and researching career pathways to discover what may be a good fit for them so that they could try out different work experience options.
Students attended a work experience placement in Term 2 and/or Term 3, with industries including construction, electrical, automotive, plumbing, retail, early childhood, primary school, personal training, boat building, aviation, and more. We always appreciate any employer that will make the time to give our students this wonderful opportunity to prepare themselves for whatever their plans may be.
Courses were also run during the year with Gateway and Pathways students attending a Great Success customer service course. The Gateway students also participated in a Problem-Solving workshop at ITC in the city. Pathways students also received their First Aid certificate after attending a one-day course, which will look great on their CV.
Students also attended courses that were specific to their career interests or individual learning. These courses included Site Safe, flight
attending, mocktails, barista, animal care, interior design, cooking, IT, early childhood, makeup, and more. This laid an excellent foundation for their next steps.
We also had various speakers present to our students so they could learn more about their industry. This included presentations on marine and technology, tourism, electrical, building and construction, engineering, print, and the Jobs and Skills Hub.
The Gateway students attended a Road Safety Workshop, where they learned essential lifesaving skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.
The Gateway students were lucky to have the Auckland Chamber of Commerce team assist them with mock interviews. This gave the students an experience of what an interview would be like in the ‘real world’ especially because they were dealing with someone they had not met before.
Gateway and Pathways to Employment provides an excellent platform for students to make informed decisions for their future. We wish them every success in their journey—whether they are returning to school, going on to tertiary study, heading into full-time employment, or are entering an apprenticeship.
This year in Junior Physical Education, our students continued their journey toward becoming lifelong learners, taking charge of their own hauora and supporting their peers along the way. The two-year programme is designed to be both engaging and independent, fostering the development of a wide range of interpersonal skills.
The year started with our Year 9 students being introduced to the Rangitoto Mover unit, where they explored interpersonal skills and learned about social responsibility within a physical activity context. Year 10 students focused on honing their motor skills and applying tactical strategies to various traditional sports and games.
As the year progressed into Term 2, both year levels turned their attention to the biophysical principles, gaining insights into how these principles can be leveraged to enhance physical performance.
In Term 3, Year 9 students participated in the Physical Activity for Life unit, while Year 10 students engaged in Train for Life. Both groups delved into various training methods and principles, discovering how these can contribute to improving different aspects of health and fitness. The knowledge gained from these units is intended to help students enhance their hauora, both now and in the future.
The year concluded with Year 9 students focusing on the Part of a Team unit, where they practised and demonstrated the roles of team player, coach, manager, and captain, understanding the significance of each. Year 10 students tapped into their creativity by designing and leading a game, showcasing their leadership and interpersonal skills.
The Year 11 Health course has undergone some exciting changes and modifications this year with the implementation of our Year 11 Diploma. An exciting development came in Term 1 during our Wellbeing Warriors topic where, as well as looking at the Te Whare Tapa Wha and Mana models of wellbeing, we examined Ikigai and the Fonofale. Students were able to reflect on how the models aligned with their own views of wellbeing.
As part of this topic, we also spent time with a Pacifica group who came in to teach the classes Pacifica dance as well as reinforcing knowledge learnt in class around the Fonofale model of wellbeing. This was a great link between cultural knowledge, and health knowledge.
It has been an exciting time in Year 11 Health, and we are looking forward to taking the course further forward in 2025 and beyond, examining social issues that impact the wellbeing of students, families, and our community.
In Year 12 Health, we encourage our students to become critical and perceptive thinkers of our social world. The learning is underpinned by the core concepts of this subject area with an emphasis on how these social issues impact hauora of individuals, others, and society.
Term 1 required students to develop a comprehensive understanding of resilience. The students explored a range of adverse situations and recognised strategies to support challenging and difficult changes that occur in our lives. Term 2 focused on the concept of health promotion, where students participated in social actions in addressing their chosen health issues. Connections with the wider community such as charitable organisations and churches.
Sexuality and gender influences and issues remain as dominant controversial topics in the world. Students continued to develop their critical thinking by investigating the embedded cultural norms that contribute to gender and sexuality in Term 3. To complete the year, our Year 12 cohort analysed a range of adolescent health issues—mental health and social media, body image, and alcohol and food related issues in preparation for external examinations.
Congratulations to the 22 students who were awarded Health and Physical Education Scholarships in 2023. These students are in the top 3 per cent of all Level 3 Health and Physical Education students in New Zealand. It was an amazing result for Rangitoto College, gaining approximately 24 per cent of all scholarships awarded, while also being awarded 2 out of the top 14 (14 per cent) Outstanding Scholarships for 2023. A special mention must go to both Lianne Kim and Eileena Bao who gained scores of 21 and 18 respectively.
The success of previous recipients has been a catalyst for generating interest from a wide variety of students in this year’s programme. In 2024, we had 80 students in the cluster group and an additional 50 students in the 13PSS Scholarship Programme, all of whom are passionate about exploring societal issues that impact wellbeing.
Our Year 13 Health course aims to provide thought provoking lessons and activities designed to challenge and educate students around current societal norms relating to current health topics.
In February and March, the Year 13 Health classes of Rangitoto College had the privilege of partaking in Rongoa Māori knowledge through workshops, learning about mātauranga Māori approaches to accessing good mental health.
In Terms 2 and 3, our students learnt about laws and ethics in relation to ever-changing policy for healthcare in New Zealand, and investigated health issues they were interested in to gain a greater understanding of how and why these issues persist. Through investigation into these topics, they are challenged to look at both sides of the argument, allowing them to develop the skills of critical thinking.
Our students demonstrated their knowledge and maturity by examining poverty as a global health issue in preparation for external examinations –linking their knowledge to global policy to establish how poverty and its repercussions can be mitigated when it comes to wellbeing.
The 2024 Scholarship Programme got underway early in Term 2. Students participated in eight weekly interactive tutorials centred around gaining further HPE knowledge and applying critical thinking skills to challenge perspectives on relevant issues in society.
Throughout Term 3, students refined their scholarship topic and began the research process. Students required significant self-motivation and dedication. Utilising their mentor teacher for personalised feedback and guidance during this stage has been instrumental in supporting students to produce a report that aligns with the marking criteria.
Well done to all 2024 Health and Physical Education Scholarship candidates for your tireless commitment to the programme. We look forward to seeing the results next year.
Senior Physical Education aims to provide students with a range of learning experiences to develop their knowledge of this subject area and to understand the importance of remaining active for life. We know our students thrive and learn better whilst doing, therefore it is key for us to have a good balance between practical and theoretical lessons.
With the introduction of the Year 11 Rangitoto Diploma, we were able to design our units of work around different movement contexts for performance, biophysical knowledge, Kotahitanga, and the influence that youth culture, media, and technology have on our participation in physical activity. Their trip to Bounce Trampoline Park was an educational success and a highlight for many of our students.
A highlight of our NCEA Level 2 programme was our Motutapu Island Camp where students were able to apply and demonstrate their leadership capabilities in a range of outdoor activities. These essential skills will also benefit the students as they move into various leadership roles across the school. In addition, students developed their knowledge of the socio-cultural factors that influence participation from a socioecological perspective. They also focused on the biophysical principles related to learning new skills in tee ball and training for performance in basketball, hockey, and the 800m track event.
Our NCEA Level 3 students had the opportunity to visit the AUT Millennium Institute of Sport to reflect on different physical activity experiences and to assist them in devising strategies for lifelong well-being. Students also analyse their performance in badminton and volleyball using relevant biophysical principles. Through all our units, students have delved deeper into the social-cultural influences on physical activity and examined the impact they have on NZ society.
It has been very pleasing to note the high standard of work students continually produce as they challenge themselves to strive for excellence. The entire HPE team would like to wish all our students the absolute best in their future endeavours.
Sports Science has provided students with a high-level knowledge into a range of biophysical principles. Our programmes started with learning about functional anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics and how they link to performance. Students applied this knowledge to a range of practical situations.
Our students were lucky enough to participate in several sessions at the Millennium Institute of Sport where they were introduced to a range of different Methods of Training. We also enjoyed a session at Bounce in Term 3 with our Year 11 students, applying this to how the influences of Media and Technology impact Youths’ physical activity levels. With no external exam in Year 11, students enjoyed an end to the year, learning and demonstrating individual and team skills in both Turbo Touch and Football culminating in a one-day tournament with all classes competing with each other.
Year 12 Sports Science enjoyed a trip to Motutapu Island for our annual leadership camp. This is for many students an enjoyable, fun way to earn
NCEA credits. It is also often the highlight of the year for both students and staff.
In Year 13, students began the year evaluating their prior physical activity experiences and its impact on future participation, before devising strategies for lifelong learning well-being. We then enjoyed participating in and evaluating a badminton performance improvement programme. Although this was not the sport of choice for some, it proved to be an incredibly competitive and fun environment. From here we then self-selected and examined a current trend / issue and its potential impact on NZ society. The focus here for many was the concerning trend around declining participation rates or the unequal opportunities for female athletes. The classes always enjoyed challenging assumptions and debating topical issues arising in sport. The Paris Olympics provided numerous talking points. We finished the year by working hard on producing a scholarship report that all could be proud of.
Taught over two years (Years 12 and 13), the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma is taken as an alternative to the New Zealand national examinations (NCEA). The level of intellectual and personal development that the IB Diploma brings is unique in a secondary school curriculum and we are proud to offer it with outstanding results here at Rangitoto College.
The IB Diploma programme is designed to be both academically challenging and holistically balanced. In addition to their six chosen subjects, students take IB CORE comprising of CAS (Creativity, Service, and Activity components to balance their academic strengths), an Extended Essay (a self-directed research project that culminates in a university style 4,000 word essay), and Theory of Knowledge (a critical thinking course).
Once again Rangitoto IB results rank alongside the best in the world! Not only are our results well above the world average but we have had 100% success for the last four years and students achieving world top scholar status.
We are especially proud of the following 2023 highlights:
• William Li (Rangitoto Top scholar - 43 points) University of Melbourne
• Martin Leung (42 points) Full scholarship to University of Hong Kong
• Kevin Chen (41 points) University of Melbourne
• Bilingual Diplomas 2024: Dutch, Korean & Chinese
The number of students deciding to undertake an IB Diploma pathway continues to grow at Rangitoto, a testament to the success of the programme. In 2024 Bilingual Diplomas also continue to grow with students studying Literature in 12 different languages.
IB Language is where students learn at beginners, standard level, or higher level depending on their incoming knowledge. Students complete IB language exams in May. This year there were even students completing these exams in Malay and Macedonian Literature.
• Summer Bailey completed a statistics paper at the Auckland of University while also completing her IB studies at Rangitoto College. Impressively, she passed the paper with A+. This rigorous paper covers the steps involved in conducting a statistical investigation with an emphasis on data analysis.
• Yeonsu Na continued his success in canoe slalom this year. He has taken a leading role in establishing a dedicated canoe slalom programme at the college. Yeonsu captured a silver in both the Senior Kayak Men’s and Senior Wildwater Canoeing Men’s events. He also attended the Asian Canoe Slalom Championships in Thailand where he represented Korea and secured a bronze medal in the Junior K1 Men’s event.
• Jenya Abramova attended the Commonwealth Junior and Cadet Fencing Championships in July and came away with a bronze medal. Jenya is ranked first in New Zealand in the Women’s Epee Cadets Fencing category and captained the NZ Cadet Women’s Epee team at this competition.
• Devyn Golaboski saw success in the Premier Girls Volleyball team this year as they claimed North Harbour and Auckland Championship titles. Her performances both on and off the court demonstrate a high level of dedication and professionalism.
As the 13IB Group have now completed the last of the content in their subjects, developed and completed their internal assessments and finished the CORE components of their IB Diploma (CAS, ToK, and EE), we know they will look back on their time as IB students with pride at all they have accomplished. Reaching this point in the year is a massive achievement for students.

Active Day at MERC
This year it is the first time our talented students, Year 12 Peter Kim, Year 11 Oliva Otut and Kate Thynne, and Year 10 Nathan Blunden, participated in the essay competition run by the Confucius Institute. It was amazing to see how the students utilised the knowledge and language they had learned and put it into practice. Well done!
The Chinese Committee has organised a series of activities to celebrate Chinese language and Chinese culture within the school. These activities ranged from a fun cultural quiz, language learning, Chinese cultural performances, movies, and to Chinese food. During this week we were able to share our language and culture. Everyone was able to participate and have a taste of Chinese values in different ways.
Year 13 student Sebastian Camus Rogers and his family travelled to Wellington on 8th May to receive the Spanish Top Scholar award. The ceremony was held in the Beehive, where Sebastian was presented with the award by Minister of Education, and ex-Rangitoto College Student, Erica Stanford, and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon.
Thisyear Rangitoto College Spanish students participated in the National Spanish Debate Competition held at Kristin School on the 13th of June. In this event students are fully immersed in the Spanish language, with STANZA (Spanish Teachers Association of New Zealand Aotearoa) challenging students with a variety of topical moots over the course of the day, all of which were held entirely in Spanish. The Junior team, consisting of two Year 11 students, Blake Amani and Olivia Clarke, as well as Year 10 student Bibi Castro Neves, were the overall winners in the Junior category, and the Senior team of Year 13 students Kenzie Longmuir, Aaron McMillan, Layla Clarke, and Connie Shum were the runners up in the Senior category. Congratulations to all students who took part in the competition.
This year, major events like the visit from Zushi Kaisei Junior and Senior Highschool and our two-day Japan Day celebration have made 2024 remarkable for the Japanese community at Rangitoto College. After welcoming our sister school in Japan for the first time in five years, students were excited to learn about each other’s cultures by playing Japanese and New Zealand childhood games. Students from Zushi Kaisei Junior and Senior High school attended classes with their Rangitoto College student buddies, building friendships and creating unique experiences in a new environment.
Moreover, a group of Year 13 Japanese language students worked diligently to expand our annual Japan Day into a twoday event, successfully engaging students and teachers in appreciating the beauty of Japanese culture through activities like Yoyotsuri, Kendama, Japanese performances, and traditional Japanese food. Over the two days, more people participated and embraced these activities, highlighting the enthusiasm of our students in making 2024 a remarkable year for the Japanese community at Rangitoto College.
Students participated not only in school activities but also in co-curricular events outside of school. Alariah Greenfield (Year 13) was selected to participate in the North Asia CAPE’s 2024 Japanese Language and Culture Immersion weekend, an event offered to only 10 secondary school students in New Zealand. The participants engaged in various cultural activities and language lessons, providing Alariah with a valuable experience.
The Koru programme is a small multi-level class, which offers students opportunities to practise skills they will need for their pathway beyond Rangitoto College whilst gaining some NCEA credits along the way. It is designed to meet the needs of each individual student, offering assessments at Level 1 and Level 2 at a supported level. It follows a more practical approach with students creating CV’s, practising interview techniques, learning how to use money, and creating a budget along with other useful life skills.
The library continues to be the hub of the school with an average of 10,000 students coming through the doors each week. We are continuing to evolve to suit students’ needs and offer both physical books and access to digital collections and databases. Our team has curated curriculum resources to support different areas of the school, including Social Science and ESOL.
Our Student Librarian programme was updated this year with the introduction of team leaders for each library shift. By giving students more responsibility and autonomy we hope to develop leadership skills which will carry them into the workforce when they leave school.
In May, we were privileged to host Apirana Taylor, a poet and performer, in conjunction with the English Department. Apirana entertained students by reciting his poetry as well as playing traditional Māori instruments. He also encouraged students to join an impromptu poetry recital.
This years Readers Cup Team, Taran Bates, Ashley Fang, Jules Bouges, Ricki Ruan, and Mia Long, represented our school very well and I was extremely proud of their hard work and dedication leading up to and during the competition. I would also like to thank the parents who supported the students as we wouldn’t be able to attend these events without their help.
Library Week this year was ‘A Mystery in the Library.’ A body was found in the Library and six ‘teacher suspects’ were identified. We were inundated with budding detectives, both students and teachers, trying to work out who did it. Guess the lollies in the jar continued to be the top drawcard in the competitions and students had a lot of laughs dressing up for the mugshot wall. A big thank you to the library team who worked hard to make this happen.
Finally, we are very excited that funding has been approved for a major new Library and Technology block, with the plan to start building at the end of 2025. We are incredibly grateful to Mr Don Hastie and Mr Patrick Gale for their dedication and persistence in getting us to this stage.
At the beginning of Term 1, we welcomed several new teachers to the department, Harriet Tidman, Dali Ndebele, Kavitha Ragu, Vicky Zeng, Jessica Whitfield, Nathan Hanna, and Viviana Perez. In addition, Gillian Crowe decided to move from her long-term relieving position in 2023 and join our permanent team. This mixture of new and experienced teachers has helped us to strengthen our department as we experience increasing student numbers. Harriet Tidman came with significant leadership experience from her previous school and joined us as a Kahui Ako member and the Curriculum Leader for Level 2 Statistics. During the year we also recruited Charles Hwang.
The past several months have seen remarkable success in Maths competitions at Rangitoto College. The Maths Competition Club has grown exponentially, with more than 200 active members. The student leaders organised and ran weekly sessions to extend the keen students.
A big thank you to John Cai, Yeonsu Na, Eileena Bao, Kris Wan, Gwang Ho Kim, Joshua Wang, Alex Bai, and Sylvia Yu for all their effort they put into training the students and organising the Rangi Mathex. In the most recent Auckland Mathex Competition, our Year 10 team won third place, and the Year 9 teams finished fourth and fifth, which was also fantastic.
Rangitoto College students enjoyed tremendous success in the Otago Junior Mathematics Competition with 11 students (a 37.5 per cent increase compared to 2023) placing in the top 30 nationally for their year group, and Gwang Ho Kim winning first place in Year 11. What a fantastic result! Apart from the top prize winners, there was much strength and depth to celebrate, given that 91 students were awarded Merit and 49 Distinction. In addition to a strong showing in the Junior Math Competition, the students have done equally well in the Australian Mathematics Competition and the New Zealand Senior Maths Competition, with final results to be announced later this year.
Rangitoto Mathematics Olympiad Club was established last year to train students for Maths Olympiad locally or internationally. Rangitoto College students have performed wonderfully in Maths Olympiad competitions this year. In the Inter-school Mathematical Olympiad, Leo Wang and John Cai won the first and second place in the senior session, with Alston Huang and Kyle Tac also winning a gold medal. Furthermore, three students won silver, thirteen bronze, and another eight honourable mentions. In the Auckland Mathematical Olympiad, Gwang Ho Kim placed fourth in the Junior Division. It is also worth mentioning that students did so well in the first round of the New Zealand Mathematical Olympiad that 17 students (compared to only eight in 2023) from Rangitoto College have been selected to sit the second round.
The college continues to offer students the opportunity to join extension classes to provide them with the support and breadth of curriculum required for Scholarship Calculus and Statistics. 2023 was a remarkable year with 15 scholarships in Calculus and 17 in Statistics, including two Year 10 students (Gwang Ho Kim and Jaylen Ling) gaining scholarships in Calculus.
Mathematics helps us understand the world and provides an effective way of building mental strategies. The study of Mathematics encourages logical reasoning, critical thinking, abstract or spatial thinking, problemsolving ability, and even effective communication skills.
Classes in each option line are broad-banded: top band, mixed band, and developing band. Top students enter the Mathematics acceleration pathway at the start of Year 10. The Year 9 Mathematics course solidifies and builds on mathematical skills learned from previous years and the year started with a short introductory unit developing students’ ability to communicate mathematical thinking. The content strands of the NZ Mathematics curriculum studied were number, geometry, algebra, and patterns and graphs.
Assessments this year have focused on topic tests and ongoing quizzes on topics taught earlier in the year. With this regular retrieval practice, students will be better equipped to take on the junior exams in Term 4.
The Year 10 Mathematics programme continues to build a solid foundation in essential mathematical skills while preparing ākonga for the exciting challenges of Senior Maths at Rangitoto College. Throughout the year, students have engaged with diverse mathematical topics, including number, measurement, space, algebra, relationships, and chance and data, all designed to strengthen their overall mathematical skills and problem-solving abilities.
For a second year, our Year 10 students had the opportunity to participate in the NCEA Numeracy corequisite. This assessment, while initially daunting, was embraced by most students as a valuable learning experience, providing them with a real-world context for their mathematical knowledge.
With a solid grounding in mathematical and statistical concepts, our students are now well-prepared to make informed decisions about their future pathways at our school.
The first year of the new Rangitoto Diploma let us fine-tune our teaching and content to give our students the absolute best foundational knowledge to lead them into NCEA in Year 12. Our Year 11 students have shown tremendous resilience in approaching the challenges thrown at them and embodying the characteristics that the school and the department strive for: determination, attention to detail, and pursuit of excellence.
In Mathematics towards Algebra, our students have learned a variety of topics designed to give them a solid understanding of algebra and statistics. Algebra and tables, equations, and graphs have provided a solid foundation for students considering taking Calculus next year. For students wishing to take Statistics in Year 12, our Statistics topic which focused on a multivariate investigation comparing prices for different housing types, will have prepared them well for moving into that course. Our remaining topics of geometry and Pythagoras and trigonometry round out the Year 11 curriculum to give our students the full scope of Mathematics before they begin to specialise in Year 12.
In Mathematics towards Statistics, our students have demonstrated great statistical insight by using their knowledge to succeed in our probability, distributions, and statistics topics. More specifically, our Statistics topic
which focused on a multivariate investigation comparing prices for different housing types will have prepared them well for moving into that course. This was done in great detail and helped students to analyse the factors affecting house pricing. The additional topics of measurement, Pythagoras and trigonometry and linear programming have allowed our students to apply their Mathematical knowledge to real-life situations and find optimal solutions to problems.
In Mathematics Extension, our students have been challenged to extend their thinking to topics beyond Year 11 with sequences and series (NCEA Level 2) and simultaneous equations (NCEA Level 3). These topics with algebra, tables, equations and graphs, trigonometric functions, and geometry have allowed our 11MTX students to continue to grow and build their expertise.
In Mathematics for Numeracy, our students have worked hard to develop their foundational abilities through various topics. They have specialised in real-life applications of mathematics such as number, measurement, statistics, probability, and financial maths. The effort of these students this year has been inspiring to their teachers and we are proud of their results.
Year 12 Calculus is the beginning of non-compulsory senior Mathematics in college. Calculus can be a challenging subject but also extremely rewarding and interesting. It focuses mainly on problem-solving and supports students to develop their ability to think logically and innovatively. Wherever problems need to be solved, Mathematics is usually involved. It is fundamental to the study of engineering, virtually all science subjects, and useful for many other subjects.
In Year 12 Calculus, 240 students have worked hard to develop their algebra and thinking skills to a high level in topics such as the internally assessed topics of coordinate geometry, non-linear graphs, non-right angled trigonometry and the externally assessed topics of algebra and calculus. These five topics lay the foundation of knowledge required for Level 3 Calculus and understanding them well is hugely important for success in any Year 13 course of Calculus.
In Year 12 Extension Mathematics, 110 students have enjoyed studying a mixture of Level 2 and Level 3 topics this year. This course allowed our students to begin their study of Level 3 Mathematics topics to help to prepare them for a Year 13 Scholarship Calculus programme. They have completed the Level 3 conic sections internal assessment and started their studies of Level 3 algebra, differentiation, and trigonometric equations and identities. These highly motivated, industrious students deserve to do well in their learning.
Our Year 12 Statistics students have had a fantastic 2024, showcasing their progress and confidence in this subject throughout the year. It has been rewarding to see them embrace the learning opportunities in our course at Rangitoto College.
This year’s Level 2 Statistics course introduced students to critical skills and insightful statistical knowledge that will help them in Year 13 Statistics and beyond. In our course this year, students gained NCEA credits by designing a questionnaire, conducting an experiment, making an inference, designing a simulation, evaluating a report, and understanding probability methodology. Ice cream became a key theme in these tasks—students applied their statistical skills to this popular topic in both their inference and statistical report assessments, making their learning a very sweet experience.
The Level 2 Statistics teachers are proud of the students’ accomplishments and are eager to see their growth continue in Year 13 Statistics next year.
Our Year 12 Mathematics students have made remarkable strides in their mathematical abilities this year. They have shown great determination in achieving their goals and have deepened their understanding of statistical concepts through the experiments, questionnaires, and probability topics.
They also strengthened their algebraic skills in coordinate geometry and trigonometry. The networks topic allowed them to apply their mathematical knowledge in practical ways.
We are incredibly proud of the achievements of our Year 12 Mathematics students and look forward to seeing them continue their mathematical journeys in Year 13 Mathematics next year.
Students were lucky enough to study mathematical and statistical concepts during the year. While studying mathematics, students learned how to solve problems that required finding optimal solutions. The statistics standards enabled students to learn how to construct a report which helped them to improve their literacy skills. The top-performing students in this course had high attendance and displayed good time management skills.
Approximately half of all Year 13 students chose this valuable course where they learned to select and analyse statistical data to make informed recommendations which they presented in written reports. They also designed and ran randomised statistical experiments to test causal hypotheses. For example, one team of students, inspired by events happening in The United States, tested Year 9 and Year 13 students to discover whether having darker coloured skin causes students to think that convicted criminals should get longer prison sentences; their results were conclusive for the experimental group tested and gave us all something to think about. Students ended the year by learning a rigorous approach to critiquing media reports, a skill with many real-life applications.
Students who gained entry into a Scholarship Statistics class further developed their logical thinking skills producing statistical reports to the highest standard. They also had the opportunity to develop skills to model the real-world using probability distributions.
Year 13 Calculus has three external NCEA examinations: complex numbers, differentiation, and integration. Most of the content learned is new skills, and concepts are often applied in real-world contexts. It has been inspiring for teachers to see students rise to the challenge, enjoy the journey, and experience success in this extremely demanding course. Many Year 13 Calculus students are balancing high-workload subjects with extra-curricular involvements. This requires commitment, planning, focus, resilience, and significant work.
We look forward to seeing their hard work reflected in the NCEA examinations and wish them well with their continued journey in mathematics, many through the study of engineering at university.
In the last week of August this year I spoke to a large number of parents and students during the Pathways Evening. While this event was mainly geared towards students in Year 10 and Year 11, to help them make informed decisions about which subjects to take at senior level, I believe the questions raised there are applicable to all year levels. Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to share with you what I told Year 10 and Year 11 students and parents, that taking Music as a subject is a smart choice, for several reasons:
1. All credits gained in the Performing Arts subjects (Music, Dance, Drama) are university approved credits. This means that 14 out of 42 credits to gain the university entrance qualification can be from one or more of these subjects. This gives Music students a competitive advantage when gaining entrance into their chosen tertiary programme, given that their general Grade Point Average (GPA) can be boosted through excellence marks in Music.
2. Students in Music are achieving at the highest levels. In the last three years, the Year 13 results (including both internal and externally assessed standards) showed a combined merit and excellent achievement of over 90 per cent for each year. In 2023, the Year 13 achievement at excellence level alone was 81.3 per cent and I do not believe many other subjects could match those statistics.
3. Statistical and anecdotal data shows that students who took Music as a subject in high school are generally successful in any tertiary subject they chose, not just in Music. This means that students have used the knowledge and skills gained in Music to support their success in any academic pathway at tertiary level.
4. The Music programme at Rangitoto College is not taught with the narrow focus of preparing to study Music at tertiary level, but instead with a broad range of academic and soft skills which help students to be successful in their future pathway. There are practical skills (e.g., performance, technique) that foster a high degree of discipline, commitment, and excellence; academic skills (e.g., research, literacy, critical thinking, application of complex concepts, high levels of analysis and reflection); creativity
(e.g., composition, song-writing, arrangement); and soft skills (e.g., collaboration and teamwork, a positive work ethic, presentation skills, confidence, and many more).
It is clear that Music offers the perfect balance of incredibly important skills, making it hugely advantageous in preparation for any tertiary subject.
What I am most proud of in this context is that our students are getting it! They are working extremely hard and thoroughly deserve the excellent results they are achieving. By being trained to take responsibility for their own learning and successes, they are motivated to get the most out of any learning opportunity offered to them, thus creating a culture of learning which leads to their success in all areas.
However, none of this would be possible without the large team of dedicated staff who all work well beyond the call of duty to our support students and who create the many learning opportunities every day to maximise the potential of every student.
I would like to express my gratitude to all staff in the Performing Arts for their tireless work—their dedication and hard work is truly amazing, humbling, and inspirational.

The year 2024 has been a landmark year for our Dance Department, filled with remarkable achievements and memorable experiences. Our junior Dance students have demonstrated impressive progress in both performance and choreography this year. Their dedication has significantly enhanced their understanding and skill set, leading to performances that are both technically proficient and creatively compelling.
Our senior students have had the opportunity to attend numerous shows this year including Hatupatu Kurungaituku, Footnote Dance Company, and Solace by the Royal New Zealand Ballet. Our Year 11 students have explored the world of circus with the Dust Palace circus hub, learning new skills and ways of moving. A major highlight for our senior Dance students this year was the much-anticipated Choreography by Candlelight. This evening event showcased the choreographic works of our senior students and drew an enthusiastic crowd of friends and family. The support was so overwhelming that the Dance Studio nearly overflowed! The event highlighted a diverse range of assessment works developed throughout the year, offering a wonderful evening of creativity and collaboration.
Drama has had another hugely successful year filled with many great memories.
Our students have been busy developing their performance and academic skills with a focus on drama as performance, drama as a process, and drama in context. New Zealand has an incredible theatre industry which has really boomed since the Covid-19 years, and our students are building solid practical industry knowledge to help them work towards a career either on stage or behind it. Through the study of Drama, our students learn the key skills of communication, reliability, resilience, self-discipline, initiative, critical thinking, creativity, and divergent thinking. We work as an ensemble (team) building a safe space for students to express themselves creatively, and implement vertical teaching where appropriate, where students work with each other across year levels to help inspire younger students and build leadership skills in senior students.
We are very lucky in Auckland to live so close to so many professional theatres and this year we were lucky to take our students to so many shows. Our Year 9s saw Peter Pan at the ASB Waterfront Theatre in October, where our Year 10s saw Hyperspace by New Zealand playwright Albert Belz in Term 1. Our Year 11 cohort went to Te Pou Theatre to see Dakota of the White Flats by Red Leap Theatre Company and our Year 12s were moved by Scenes from the Climate Era at Q Theatre, which challenged our perception of climate change. Finally, our Year 13s, this year, attended the highly inspirational performance of Hatupatu Kurungaituku: A Forbidden Love, also at Q. This play was an awe-inspiring combination of aerials, kapa haka, and dance-based theatre focused on the Te Arawa kōrero of Hatupatu and the bird woman.
Our students have studied a wide range of different theatre forms across the year groups. Our Year 13s have focused on New Zealand theatre and the work of Gary Henderson, while our Year 12s have looked at the work of Bertolt Brecht. Our junior students have had great fun with physical and abstract theatre, which gives them a solid foundation in important performance skills.
A highlight of the year was the Year 13 production of Peter and the Starcatcher expertly directed by student director Olesya Korchagina. The performances across the board from the Year 13s was of an extremely high level, and the audience were in stitches watching this cheeky and heartwarming show. We were also able to arrange a writing workshop for our Year 13s with Gary Henderson, which was a great opportunity for them to build new skills.
With the implementation of the new Year 11 Diploma, this year allowed the department to focus on the key aspects of performance, process, and the context of drama. In Term 1 our Year 11s joined up with the Dance Department to successfully put on the production Treasure Island. They then created their own original pieces of theatre based on the prompt: takutai and moana (beach and ocean). Finally, to end the year, our 11s completed a focus on clowning as a theatre form, studying the historical and social aspects of the form as well as the practical performance aspects. Our students had workshops with professional clown Frankie Browne, who trained with the French clowns of Paris and gave our students a unique and in-depth glimpse into the ancient art form.
Overall, it has been another successful year for our Drama cohort. The level of performances we are seeing are just outstanding and we look forward to seeing what hits our stages next year!
The annual Dance Showcase at the Bruce Mason Centre was another standout event.
With over 240 dancers taking the stage, this year’s showcase was a celebration of the hard work and dedication of our students throughout the year. The event was a highlight for both our dancers and the broader community, providing invaluable experiences and creating lasting positive memories.
As we look ahead to 2024, we are excited about the future for our young dancers. This year’s achievements set a high bar and we are eager to continue to foster talent and creativity in the coming year.
Congratulations to all our dance students for a remarkable year, and a special farewell to our Year 13 dancers - we wish you every success as you move onto the next chapter.

In 2024, the Biology Department achieved remarkable success. In February, we were thrilled to announce that we had secured 34 prestigious Biology Scholarships, marking our highest number of scholarships ever. This achievement is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our students, whose unwavering commitment to their Biology education has made us incredibly proud.
This year, we were fortunate to welcome Aoife Storan to the team. We have enjoyed the integration of her enthusiasm and fresh ideas into the Biology programme.
Throughout the academic year, Biology students explored a diverse range of subjects, from the intriguing aspects of human evolution and organ systems to the fascinating field of homeostasis. To enhance their learning experience, students also participated in several engaging biological field trips.
Our Year 11 students have thoroughly enjoyed their participation in the Rangitoto Diploma this year. Their deep dive into genetics, with applications such as eDNA, lineages, and pest management, has generated significant enthusiasm. Additionally, our 11SCX students have been captivated by their in-depth exploration of microbes, finding the study both engaging and fascinating.
The 12 Biology classes visited Wenderholm Regional Park to observe the diverse species found along the rocky shore. This excursion gave students a chance to apply their ecology knowledge in a practical setting.
The 13 Biology classes visited Auckland Zoo, which offered students a fantastic chance to closely observe various species and explore their remarkable adaptations in a real-world context. Students also had the privilege of receiving an engaging and informative presentation from knowledgeable zookeepers; an experience that made a lasting impression on everyone.
Our 13 Biology Scholarship students embarked on an enriching trip to the beautiful Tiritiri Matangi Island in the Hauraki Gulf. During their visit, they had the unique opportunity to observe protected species thriving in their natural habitat and explore the topics of conservation and the evolution of New Zealand’s bird population.
This year, the Chemistry Department has been truly inspired by the incredible work of our students. They tackled the synthesis of nylon in our polymer lab with impressive skill and explored factors affecting concentrations of dissolved oxygen in local estuaries and freshwater lakes by titration, demonstrating both ingenuity and perseverance. These experiments not only highlighted their scientific skills but also their dedication and enthusiasm for learning.
Through the Rangitoto Diploma, our Year 11 students have worked hard on building their foundational knowledge of matter, investigating different types of chemical reactions as well as exploring the basics of organic chemistry. Additionally, our 11SCX students have been honing their problem-solving and practical chemistry skills in making dilutions and conducting titrations.
As we look back, we celebrate the remarkable achievements and discoveries driven by our students, excited to see how their passion for chemistry will shape their future endeavours.
This year in the Physics Department has been nothing short of incredible. From thrilling new courses to an unforgettable school trip, it has been a year full of hands-on learning, new faces, and exciting opportunities. Here’s a recap of the highlights!
This year, the Physics Department expanded with three enthusiastic new staff members, each bringing their own energy and expertise to the classroom. Mr Byron Smith, Dr Nimisha Mohandas, and Mrs Robyn MacDonald. Their arrival has given the department a fresh new dynamic, and their impact has been felt throughout all the year levels.
One of the most talked-about events this year was our trip to Rainbow’s End. While we were all looking forward to a day of rollercoasters in vertical circles and practical lessons in motion, forces, and 2-D collisions, the weather had different plans! It rained – and not just a drizzle, but a torrential downpour that had everyone soaked through. Yet, despite the wet conditions, the day turned into one of the most fun and memorable experiences of the year. The rain only added to the excitement, with students splashing through puddles, laughing, and making the most of the park’s thrills. Even though it was wetter than expected, it was a perfect way to bring the physics we’d been learning to life – from kinetic energy on the rides to understanding why we were all freezing due to heat loss!
One of the biggest developments this year has been the introduction of a brand-new course for Year 11 students. This new course is designed to
make physics more interactive and accessible while maintaining its rigorous approach to problem-solving. Students have been engaged in hands-on experiments, designing their own investigations, and seeing the real-world applications of the concepts they’ve been studying in class.
The Extension Physics course takes a deeper dive into topics like electromagnetism and wave-particle duality. This course offers additional challenges and the opportunity to explore physics at a more complex level, preparing students for the senior levels and beyond.
One of the standout moments of the year was a visit from Dr Vandi Verma, a NASA robotics expert and Mars Rover driver. Dr Verma gave an inspiring talk to students about her work on the Mars missions, sharing insights into the challenges of exploring another planet and the cutting-edge technology behind space exploration. Her stories about driving the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers on Mars captured everyone’s imagination and sparked lively discussions about the future of space travel. Dr Verma’s visit left many students dreaming of their own futures in science, engineering, and space exploration, making it a truly unforgettable experience for the whole school.
With new staff, fresh courses, unforgettable trips, and visits, it’s been a year to remember for the Physics Department. As we look ahead to next year, there’s plenty of excitement building for new projects, courses, and more ways to make physics fun and engaging for everyone.
If this year is anything to go by, next year is sure to be even more electrifying!
The Social Sciences have continued to show a keen commitment to learning about our wider world in 2024. Students were provided with multiple opportunities to investigate the world around them, through a variety of activities. For instance, this year was the first time we held Peace Week at Rangitoto College, and the theme was Peace Icons—past, present, and future. Student Leaders helped organise and run several lunchtime events, including a guest speaker from Hiroshima bomb survivors, peace-inspired arts and crafts, and a Kahoot.
We have explored many different issues and case studies in Junior Social Science this year.
9JSS:
In Year 9, students have looked at historical examples of migration movements, including Chinese Gold Miners arriving in Otago and the Pacific migration post-World War Two. Members of the Polynesian Panthers presented at a special assembly in Term 1. Students related these case studies to the push-pull migration model. This was an amazing opportunity for students to hear what it was like to be a young activist fighting for Pacifica rights in the 1970s. In Term 2 students focused on conservation efforts in Aotearoa New Zealand and innovations such as the Hallyu Wave which has transformed the South Korean economy. During Term 3 and 4 we have looked at different systems of government, including the Nazi dictatorship and New Zealand’s democracy.
10JSS:
In Year 10, we have explored the diverse ways in which disasters can affect and impact societies, from global situations such as the Syrian Earthquake to local examples like Cyclone Gabrielle. We have explored human rights and social action through our case studies on the Holocaust and Child poverty in New Zealand. Students have also enjoyed our subject tasters unit, where they got a chance to sample a variety of social sciences in preparation for their upcoming subject choices through the case study of Pompeii, exploring ancient Roman society as well as discussing modern ethical dilemmas of tourism.
2024 was a wonderful year in Art History. Year 12 students spent the year studying art through the lens of the tumultuous history of 18th and 19th century France. Students learned about the French Revolution, the rise of Napoleon, the Industrial Revolution, and the significant societal changes that followed these major historical events. Year 13 students learned all about the High Renaissance and Mannerism. The students enjoyed being able to learn about some of the biggest names in Western art history, including Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael, and how they operated in cities like Florence, Rome, and Venice.
Both year levels had the opportunity to visit the Auckland Art Gallery in Term 1 and see the beautiful exhibitions on display there, including the Robertson Gift: Paths to Modernity, and Guo Pei: Fashion, Art, and Fantasy.
It has been a wonderful year for Classics Studies. The number of classes have grown and we have broadened our topics to create connections between the Classical world and our modern context of Aotearoa. We have examined the similarities and differences between Herakles and Māui, looked at significant ancient battles, and studied how Classical art and architecture have influenced other cultures. A highlight for the year was the annual Classics dinner, where students were able to enjoy a night of great food and quizzes. The Classics Department are eagerly looking forward to the 2025 Classics Trip to Italy and Greece in April. We have 37 very excited students who are eager to see their learning in real life.
It has been an eventful year for our History students with field trips to multiple museums and sites of significance. This year we have been fortunate to also host a range of guest speakers including Bob Narev, a Holocaust survivor; Aki and Takako Kuroda, who both survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima; and members of the 1957 Little Rock 9 protests in America. Extension students have enjoyed unpacking this year’s scholarship topic which is on treaties and indigenous peoples. Our Year 12 students also enjoyed a wonderful trip to the Bay of Islands as part of their research assessment.
Geography students have enjoyed exploring natural and cultural aspects of geography globally, nationally, and locally in 2024. One of the main highlights of the year has been the field trips. At Year 11 students researched the health of the Waitākere River by taking specific water quality measurements. The Year 12 cohort started the year with a three-day field trip to the Tongariro National Park to explore the natural landscape. The Year 13s have been fortunate to have been to both Omaha, to investigate coastal processes, and to Rotorua to take part in the process of tourism development. Students have worked hard to put all their experiences into practice back in the classroom, creating detailed reports and assessments.
2024 has been a busy year for Sociology at Rangitoto College. We saw the introduction of the Year 11 course, with students engaging with significant issues relating to animal rights, refugee migration, and carrying out their own social action. Students continued to contribute to social change, by participating in a day of tree planting at the Papakura Stream Restoration Project. Our Year 12 and 13 classes continued to run, with the cohort running the annual Sociology Expo, providing multiple opportunities for students and staff to sign petitions and make donations. We look forward to seeing the positive contributions the students of 2025 make to their community.
This year, students continued to be provided with opportunities to explore and experience the tourism industry. Year 12 students explored Auckland Zoo as a tourist attraction and learned about the available various employment opportunities. Year 13 students tested their own boundaries and supported each other as they tackled the high lines at Tree Adventures. Numerous students also gained hands-on experience of industry training through courses run by the International Travel College, as well as being able to hear from providers such as Queenstown Resort College and the School of Tourism.
In STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), the Year 9 students explored how the ancient art of origami could be integrated with engineering to solve identified problems. Students were then exposed to Micro Bits and learned how to code them to start and stop servo motors using a button press, sound detection, or light detection. The students combined their newfound knowledge of Micro Bits with origami that opens and closes to solve a problem of their choosing.
Year 10 began by exploring alternative energies, creating biodigesters and solar ovens. In Term 2, students studied natural disasters, focusing on the engineering requirements for disaster-resistant structures. They applied their knowledge by designing and constructing their own models, which were then tested in simulated disaster scenarios. In Term 3, Year 10 students turned their attention to Auckland, examining aspects of the city or their community they disliked. They used their science knowledge and engineering skills to propose improvements, aiming to make a positive impact on those around them. The year concluded with students attempting to grow vegetables at a lower cost than purchasing them from stores. They explored several factors that influence growth, such as light colour, different soil types, and pH levels, to see how these would impact growth rates and qualities.
Through a variety of projects and challenges, students worked in teams to think critically and apply their newly acquired knowledge to solve diverse problems.
Design Technology stands as a hub of innovation, offering students a platform to develop and implement solutions for genuine real-world challenges. At Rangitoto College, students can choose from a diverse array of courses, including Electronics, Materials, Textiles, and Food Technology. These elective subjects integrate expertise from multiple disciplines, encouraging a hands-on and experimental approach that nurtures creativity, resourcefulness, and entrepreneurial spirit.
Electronics
In junior Electronics, students have engaged with programmable circuits, starting with Year 9s experimenting with inputs and outputs through cyber-pets made from laser-cut acrylic parts. Year 10 students explored sensors and LED displays to create digital weather stations that monitor temperature and humidity, utilising computer-aided design for their projects. In Year 11, students advanced to coding in C++ with Arduino boards, integrating electronic decision-makers into their designs. By Year 12 and 13, students embarked on diverse, open-ended projects, including a digital aid for sailors to track speed and weather, interactive public display boards featuring local fauna and flora, a training shot put measuring distance and force, and a digital medicine box that alerts users via text message when it’s time to take their medication. Their work highlighted a broad spectrum of innovative solutions.
Food Technology explores both the art of cooking and the science of food. Students develop practical skills to craft innovative solutions for real-world challenges. They engage in projects such as collaborating with a retirement village to create a special high tea for elderly residents and designing festive foods for the Pīpīwharauroa Festival, all while working from authentic briefs. This year’s standout projects include tofu parfait, dehydrated peach and raspberry biscuits, matcha panna cotta, gluten free cinnamon rolls, quinoa chicken bowl, and other inventive and delicious creations. Junior courses lay the foundation by teaching personal hygiene and kitchen safety, which are crucial for understanding more complex techniques introduced in senior courses.
In junior Materials Technology, students enhance their understanding of materials and manufacturing through modules that cover material properties and production techniques. Their learning culminates in a portfolio of prototypes they have designed and created. This year, Year 10 students embarked on an engaging project: designing and building a portable speaker, which has broadened their skills and creativity with various prototyping techniques.
Year 11 students face the challenge of developing an innovative toy for children aged 3-12. This project not only addresses the entertainment needs of young users but also hones their skills with advanced manufacturing equipment.
In Years 12 and 13, students have the opportunity to tackle real-world problems with their projects. This year’s initiatives include solutions such as a 4WD air intake system to prevent water ingress, sustainable golfing tees, a jar opener for those with arthritis, a secure air vent for freedom campers, protective film for fishing lures, and an ant bait dispersal gun to combat invasive Argentine ants. These projects highlight their ability to address complex challenges with creative solutions.
In 2024, Year 9
Textiles students designed t-shirts for a designated stakeholder, skilfully incorporating the stakeholder’s pepeha and mastering
laser cutter techniques. Year 10 students explored a range of textile projects, including wearable art, e-textiles, and screen printing. Year 11 students participated in the prestigious Walk the Line Competition, where Sara Yao won first place in the Avant-Garde category with a design inspired by the lotus flower. Senior Textiles students focused on sustainability, experimenting with natural dyes, upcycling, and zero-waste patterns. They gained industry insights during a trip to Wellington’s World of Wearable Arts show, fuelling their creativity for future projects. Term 3 concluded with a fashion exhibition celebrating the students’ exceptional work throughout the year.
Industry Aligned Technology students delved into dynamic fields such as Construction, Engineering, and Hospitality, acquiring firsthand experience and practical skills crucial for thriving in these in-demand sectors. Alongside technical expertise, students developed essential life skills that will serve them well beyond the classroom.
Timber-based Construction classes offer a dynamic blend of hands-on learning, creativity, and teamwork. Over the course of the year, students have delved into designing structures, experimenting with several types of timber, and mastering an array of tools to create outcomes such as stools, resin table, cabinets, and innovative rocking chairs. This immersive experience has refined their skills and imparted valuable lessons that extend well beyond the confines of the classroom.
Engineering students developed a range of hands-on skills, mastering manual machining and fabrication techniques to create high-quality products. They achieved precise tolerances of +/0.1mm on projects like engineer’s clamps, sheet metal toolboxes, push scooters, and for the Year 13s, a pocket motorbike. Along with making these components, students also gained important expertise in engineering Computer-Aided Design (CAD) drawing.
In 2024, Hospitality students have continually expanded their skills through diverse and challenging experiences. They created high-end meals judged by senior staff and catered for key school events like Open Day, Concerto and Cookies, Pathways Evening, and the Vocational Awards, applying classroom skills in real-world settings. They also explored various cultural cuisines and designed menus for the Garden Party at Knightsbridge Village. Insights from industry experts such as the Lady Butcher, Bakers, and Espresso Man further enriched their learning, deepening their culinary expertise.

Welcome to Te Manu Taki department here at Rangitoto College. Our department is a warm welcoming space where our students live by manaakitanga and whanaungatanga. Te Manu Taki Department weaves the curriculum through Te Reo Māori, Whakairo, and Te Ao Haka; our department is deeply connected with the Tū Rangatira programme and Rangitoto kapa haka.
In 2024 we welcomed Whaea Huia King as our Te Ao Haka specialist, to teach alongside Matua Ke’arn Peters, Whaea Jess Langley, Whaea Kata Simpkins, and Whaea Sarah Galbraith in Te Reo Māori and Matua Mark Terei in Whakairo. Te Ao Haka is a new subject at Rangitoto. Te Ao Haka is a vehicle to reconnect to Māori practices and traditions which caters to a wide spectrum of skills and knowledge from Years 9-13. Students learn about performing haka pōhiri, waiata ā-ringa, poi, mōteatea, haka, Māori weaponry, tāonga pūoro, key features and elements, and much more. Te Ao Haka allows students to express themselves, understand Māori and iwi affiliated histories, and performance styles.
Our 2024 highlights included trips for students to Ruatoki and Auckland Museum, Te Ao Haka being introduced from Year 10 to 13 and full classes in Whakairo! And finally, Te Manu Taki offers a huge congratulations to Year 10 student Kawharu Porter who won best speaker in Junior Māori in the 2024 Manu Kōrero competition.
“The subjects offered by Te Manu Taki are important to me because they provide the opportunity to combine academics with cultural growth in a mainstream school. Whakairo, Te Ao Haka, and Te Reo Māori offer more than cultural education, but also a safe space to express feelings and be yourself.”
Georgia Jakeman, Year 10
Herea te mauri o te wairua ki te tangata
Rangitoto
Kapa Haka, Te Manawa o Rangitoto, enhances opportunities for students to reconnect and learn traditional practices through haka and waiata. This is a vital pathway for students to safely express themselves and to develop whakawhānaungatanga, which supports individual growth to adapt, lead, manaaki, and work in group settings. The overall goal is to nurture cultural self-identity within our rangatahi.
Kapa Haka is the vehicle to hold Māori kaupapa such as whakatau, pōhiri, kāhui ako events, leadership programmes, Tū Rangatira events, and Te Ahurea Tino Rangatiratanga Kapa Haka competition which is held at the start of Term 4. Preparations for this competition are held throughout the year from Term 2.
The Visual Arts Department at Rangitoto College continues to be a vibrant and thriving hub of creativity and artistic expression where our students discover themselves as artists and collaborate in a wide range of media.
With Nicola Ov, a printmaking expert, and Lewis Bourne, a painter, joining our teaching staff this year. We are proud to have grown our team of expert teachers, which is now well representative of media expertise across Painting, Printmaking, Photography, and Design subjects, allowing us to provide a wide range of opportunities for students to explore their creativity through deep investigation of media and subject matter.
This year also saw the reintroduction of the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme for students in Visual Arts. This rigorous and internationally recognised course offers students a mixed-media and art history focus, allowing them to delve deeply into the world of art and develop their skills in a variety of mediums.
In addition to IB, we were also proud to introduce our new Year 11 Diploma courses that focus on Mātauranga Māori and Kaitiakitanga. These courses, Visual Art and Digital Art, provide students with the opportunity to explore their cultural identity and develop a deeper understanding of the significance of Toi Māori in Aotearoa, and to explore the rich traditions of protest art, connecting the visual arts with society and the rich learning students bring from other subjects.
During the year, Paul Stevens assumed leadership of the department (previously Assistant Head of Department). Katie Poynter was celebrated for her stellar leadership of the department over several years and continues to support our team and students particularly in Painting, Printmaking, and Junior Art, as well as organising and leading the curation of our Year 11 exhibition at Mairangi Arts Centre, He Kākano Ahau: I am a Seed.
This exhibition, on top of our regular in-school exhibitions, is a culmination of the Year 11 Diploma Visual Art and Digital Art programmes and showcases our students’ artistic talents and their exploration of Mātauranga Māori and Kaitiakitanga across a broad range of media. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to display their work in a real-world context and exhibit their work in our local community.
With our growing department, expert teachers, and exciting new courses, the Visual Arts Department at Rangitoto College is poised for continued success. We are excited too to see the success up to a Scholarship level in our current Year 13 students at the end of this year. The department is committed to providing students with a highquality arts education that encourages them to think critically, express themselves creatively, and develop a lifelong appreciation for the arts.
Year 12
Naked, on the beach, My clothes in a crumpled pile, praying at my feet, Because I give them purpose
Rising, particles of salt and the stink of rot, from driftwood and hollow kelp Are the oceans arteries branching out Like cartilage, soft bone
Between mouthfuls of sand, stuck between my teeth
The tide, a distant melody is rising and falling,
I watch dark water bear the weight of the moon, to remind me of my mortality, I am only grasping at a reflection, Yet I am chasing illusions of stars long dead, Pinholes into heaven, flicked across Rothko’s canvas, black like a pupil dilating, Mandelbrot’s eye is guessed by an atheist: futility is proximity to God.
Now wading thigh deep, I want to submerge and breathe in a lungful to become waterlogged, Pages of a book will dry wave shaped, water’s imprint is an irreversible change, I’ll trace my finger along the curved edge, Waiting for crest and trough to open, to swallow me.
Year 13
Hefting it up onto the easel, I admired the pearly white canvas before me. Everything I had worked for had come to this. Here I would paint my masterpiece, the culmination of all I had become.
But I had spent so long fighting for it that when the paintbrush was in my hand, I didn’t know what to paint. When you’ve spent your life fighting for something, what do you do when you finally have it? Shaking my head, I pulled a cloth over my canvas. I would paint it later, when I knew what I wanted to paint.
Later came and went.
There was a picture, a dream, in my mind. I pulled out my paintbrush once more, poised for the perfect painting. But I faltered when I saw the colours on my palette. So rudimentary and completely insufficient to create the wonders I intended to cast upon the canvas. I would paint it later, when I had the skills and colours to paint something beautiful.
Later came and went.
Finally I had accumulated the colours I needed. There were so many colours that I could scarcely decide where to start. Where should I start? Countless possibilities and ways to concoct this exquisite design brewed in my mind. The colours of paints and possibilities overwhelmed me. I would paint it later, when I had cleared my mind.
Later came and went.
Feeling a little more ready, I pulled the cloth back. A gasp of horror escaped me. The cloth had left a smudge smeared across the canvas. It was tainted and needed fixing, but I wasn’t sure how just yet. I would paint it later, when I knew how to fix it.
Later came and went.
Breathing in deeply, I braced myself. My hand shook as I raised it. I had a tremor that hadn’t been there when I had first picked up the paintbrush. I would paint it later, when I…
When I…
The paintbrush clattered to the floor.
Later.
Later came and went.
My hand never ceased to tremble. It worsened as time bore on, and nothing but tears ever touched the canvas.
Again and again and again.
Later came and went.

What if we never grew up?
What if we never put our toys away for the last time, shoving them under the bed thinking there would be a tomorrow, only for them to collect dust.
What if we never ran to our parents room for the last time because we had nightmares, only those monsters were just imaginary.
What if I never grow up?
I would still play freely, not caring what anyone thinks, only crying because of a graze on my knee.
What if I never grow up?
I don’t see the monsters anymore, I never run to my parents room in hopes of being cradled and never let go, yet I still find comfort in my teddy bears, I can never seem to get rid of.
What if I never fully grow up?
I pass the room that used to be filled with laughter, now only distant memories.
My sister did grow up.
She grew up without me.
I am a burden. I’m the child who lingers silently, waiting for my future to unfold.
No one quite pays attention to me.
My parents have grown up.
Why would they care about someone as immature as me? They have other things to worry about, money and work and all the other things grown up people care about.
I am not sure I am grown up.
I do still see that monster, but it’s no longer a dark shadowy outline. It’s what I see every time I look in the mirror.
I am the monster.
Will I ever grow up?

When the day begins to whisper its goodbyes, And the horizon blurs into twilight hues, There’s a place where the world holds its breath, A moment suspended between shadow and glow.
The sea, great and timeless, Holds the last of the sun’s warmth, Its waves whisper secrets in a language, Older than words, Older than time itself.
The cool sand beneath her feet, Each grain a fragment of countless stories, Intertwined into the history of the shore.
The sky above blushes with soft rose and reds, As if the heavens themselves flush, Touched by the day’s final kiss. It’s in this quiet transition, In the delicate brush of evening’s cool breath, That she finds a sense of peace.
The waves lap gently, carrying echoes of dreams. She feels an ancient connection, A reminder that beauty exists.
The stars begin to emerge, One by one, Tiny flares piercing the darkening sky, And with each shimmering point, A promise of the infinite, Of endless possibility. In this serene dusk, A part of the universe’s rhythm, A whisper in the wind, A dream under the stars.
We had the privilege of welcoming home several of our alumni who attended Rangitoto College in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. The 1960s Reunion was held on Tuesday 14th May in the Rangi Centre where our past students were impressed by how much our college had changed since their time here, most of them now in their 80s. Our alumni were joined by some of our Head Students who loved asking questions about what Rangi was like over 60 years ago. We had class photos and Panorama magazines on display with one alumni finding an essay he wrote for the school magazine in 1962, a proud moment!
On Thursday 22nd August, we held a reunion to welcome back our alumni from the 1970s and 1980s. This was hosted by our Community Relations Team at The Merchant Pub Co. in Albany. We had a great crowd come together to remember old times, some who had not seen each other for 50 years! We were even able to connect with two teachers from those decades.
Events such as reunions are important to us at Rangi. We value the connection we still have with our past students and strive to communicate as much as we can to help spread the word to keep those connections going. Our Community Relations Team are always looking at ways to increase our alumni database so if you attended Rangi in the past or know of others who did (and may have even moved overseas), we look forward to hearing from you.
For further information, or to contact us, please email communityrelations@rangitoto.school.nz or call 09 477 0150 ext. 614.
The annual Rangitoto College Blood Drive led by Emma McDonald, Karen Neale, and the Community, Environment, and Service Leadership Teams was another phenomenally successful event held in Term 2. With the lifting of the ‘mad cow’ donation restriction, many teachers were able to donate for the first time in 24 years. The Blood Drive was held on the 5th and 6th June and 120 units of blood were donated over two days. The NZ Blood Service were absolutely thrilled with the number of donations, as the winter months are when they struggle to meet the demand due to illnesses. They are grateful that they can always rely on Rangitoto College to be an excellent provider and that many of the students and teachers who donated will become lifelong donors to the NZ Blood Service. We are so proud that all our donors leave their comfort zone to donate blood at a time where NZ hospitals are experiencing critical shortages of blood.
Rangitoto College’s 2024 Chinese Night was a remarkable success, celebrating the rich and vibrant Chinese culture our student community holds. Led by the Chinese Committee, the event was a vibrant celebration of both traditional and modern Chinese culture, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended.
Chinese Night is a testament to the incredible teamwork and collaboration among the students. Their dedication and passion were evident in the seamless execution of the event, from the intricate choreography to the beautifully crafted cyberpunk themed decorations by the Chinese Arts and Crafts Club.
Each performer, whether they were acting as MC, dancing, or singing, brought their unique talents to the stage. Behind the scenes, students spent countless hours planning, rehearsing, and perfecting their contribution to the night.
Chinese Night is not only a performance but a reflection of the strong, diverse, and supportive Chinese community we are fortunate to be a part of at Rangitoto College. The success of Chinese Night was a collective effort that would not have been possible without the unwavering support of teachers, the performers, and volunteers.
On June 7th this year, Rangitoto College hosted an extraordinarily successful Korean Night, an annual event designed to celebrate and showcase both traditional and modern aspects of Korean culture. The evening featured a variety of captivating performances, including the haka, doll dances, and co-ed fan dances, all presented in traditional hanbok attire. Highlights of the event included a dynamic taekwondo demonstration, the energetic nanta drumming performance, a traditional mask dance, rap performances, contemporary K-pop routines, and live band acts.
The Auditorium was filled with excitement as over 750 attendees enjoyed the festivities. The meticulous planning and execution of the event were evident, thanks to the arduous work of student performers and leaders Youna Hong and Yoseb Kim, along with supervising teacher Regina Noh. We extend our sincere gratitude to the students, staff, and sponsors whose contributions were crucial to the success of Korean Night 2024, leaving an indelible impression on all who attended.
Kotahitanga Day was a wonderful event which promoted a sense of belonging and unity within Year 9 students at Rangitoto College.
Supported by outstanding Year 13 Peer Support Leaders, Year 9 classes rotated through a range of fun stations designed to encourage participation and teamwork. The day included sports events, problem solving, throwing events, and water activities which required teamwork. Each class designed and created a class flag and chant which they proudly presented on the day. Points were awarded for achievement and team spirit. Despite a grim weather forecast the day was mostly fine and warm. All had a wonderful time. Thank you to our Peer Support Leaders, teachers, and Lexi Gallagher-Parkinson for their efforts in running and organising the event.
We hosted our 6th Golf Day Fundraiser on Friday 5th April at Pupuke Golf Club and celebrated our biggest success to date as well as having the absolute pleasure of seeing one of our golfer’s win the grand Hole in One prize!
Our fundraising efforts this year were to upgrade our stage and lighting facilities in our Auditorium for our Performing Arts Department. We had 28 teams (112 golfers) gathered at the picturesque greens of Pupuke Golf Club on a sunny Autumn morning with roaring energy and competitive spirit.
Our main sponsors, The Merchant Pub Co., Subway, Sal’s Authentic New York Pizza, and Gilmours North Shore ensured our golfers were fed and refreshed throughout the day. Many of the holes were sponsored with a few businesses going the extra mile with challenges and fun activities to keep our golfers entertained. This all helped us raise further funds towards a good cause.
Shore Travel and Norwegian Cruise Lines sponsored hole number nine which saw Roger Bridge from an Alumni Team (Class on Grass 87) win the Hole in One early in the tournament. Their screams of joy and disbelief could be heard on the other side of the course! Roger won a seven-night cruise for two in Hawaii, and this was proudly presented by Mary Buckley of Shore Travel.
We raised $26,500 on the day from the generous support of our golfers and our 53 sponsors of which this big day on our calendar could not exist without. Rangi is extremely grateful for the continued and growing support of this event each year. Our 2025 Golf Day is already locked in for Friday 4th April so keep an eye out for further information in Term 1, 2025.
This year, Rangitoto College’s Chinese Student Leadership team, in collaboration with the Korean Student Leadership team, proudly hosted our annual Lunar Festival for the third consecutive year! Through the dedication and commitment of industrious students, the Lunar Festival has become a tremendous success highlighting the rich and vibrant tapestry of culture to our extremely large and diverse cohort.
Lunar Festival features a wide variety of activities, including performances by talented students, traditional cuisine being sold, games, and more. With both Chinese and Korean games hosted, students could experience the essence of traditional games. Additionally, having traditional Chinese and Korean food for sale offered students a unique culinary experience, a taste of something delicious to savour. Furthermore, performances diligently crafted by students at the college were shown allowing a deeper understanding and appreciation of culture. Moreover, through Rangitoto College’s annual Lunar Festival, students throughout the college can interact with one another and celebrate the remarkableness of the Lunar New Year.
Part of our kaupapa at Rangitoto College is hosting a series of whānau hui to display to our whānau and parents all the aspects of Te Ao Māori that have been learnt throughout the year.
It is our job as Māori in our kura to revive the mana of our tūpuna and create an open space for all rangatahi coming into our school. This is part of what we share with our parents at our
whānau hui. With the gathering of our whānau and kaiako, our ākonga express their Māoritanga and how our kura kaupapa is shaping their journey in the school and how their sense of identity benefits from this ako. Experiences such as wānanga, participation in pōwhiri, and helping behind the scenes are some of the many ways we develop and help grow our cultural competency.
Kiaorana, Nisa bula vinaka, Talofa lava, and Malo e lelei,
The Pacifica space at Rangitoto College has had lots of movement this year. This year is the first year we have had a Pacifica tutor class. Our PA tutor class has allowed students to have a place to feel connected with students that are similar to them and embrace all cultures from the Pacific.
The year has been packed with exciting events and activities. Celebrating Samoan, Tongan, and Fijian Language Week has allowed our students to embrace their cultural traditions of dance, speak in their mother tongue, and celebrate their roots. Our Pacifica Hui evenings allowed our students, their families, and their teachers to come together and celebrate the highlights of the school term.
Our aim is to create an environment where our Pacifica students can come together and succeed as a community. We serve in values of love, respect, and resilience in order to preserve and celebrate our cultural heritage and traditions.

On 16th October, Rangitoto College held the third annual Pīpīwharauroa Festival of Mātauranga Māori. Our Pīpīwhararauroa Festival connects our Mid Bays Kāhui Ako community as we journey through mātauranga Māori and continue to live and embed tikanga and Te Ao Māori values into our kura. This year the festival was held in the afternoon for a beautiful twilight celebration.
Our Pīpīwharauroa Festival saw an array of cultural performances from rōpū across the whenua of our community. We had kapa haka and Pacifica performances, food trucks, stalls including face paint, art prints, kākahu, taonga, cultural kai from the Cook Islands and the Rangitoto Islamic Association, and crystal taonga being sold. This event extended beyond just Māori culture and became a culmination of togetherness. This year’s Pīpīwharauroa Festival was a celebration for all and an uplifting of each other’s cultures under the mana of Mātauranga Māori.
This year, Rangitoto College participated in the Cancer Society’s Relay for Life event at the AUT Millennium with our biggest team ever. Over 500 students and staff joined other schools, community groups, and whānau for 12 hours on the track, doing something remarkable together! This event is not just a fundraiser; it is a celebration of life, resilience, and community support in the fight against cancer.
Relay for Life fosters a sense of community spirit as participants come together for a common cause. It is a chance to celebrate people who have or have had cancer and the people who care for them, to remember loved ones lost to cancer, and to fight back by raising awareness and funds.
This event could not have gone ahead without the arduous work of the 2024 Rangitoto College team leaders. Alice Leader, Grace Park, John Cai, and Marcus Cao are four of our Year 13 International Baccalaureate students who worked diligently for months before the event, presenting at assemblies, making social media posts, running drop-in sessions, making costumes and props, and even organising an extremely delicious and successful bake sale as an extra fundraiser.
On the day of the event, with many of our team dressed in our superhero theme, we enjoyed a vibrant atmosphere filled with music and camaraderie and were entertained by activities including tug of war, a talent show, Zumba, and many games. It was fantastic to see our ākonga vibrantly serving their community and demonstrating our school values.
This year, Rangitoto College was recognised as the top fundraising school, having successfully raised over $81,000; this mind-blowing total is more than we have ever raised before and will go a long way in helping the Cancer Society continue the work they do. 23 of our team individually fundraised over $500 each and their efforts were recognised in school assemblies, with Peyton Sass from Year 11 being recognised as our top fundraiser, with an impressive $2292 in donations.
Thank you to each and every member of our team.
Joining Relay for Life is not just an opportunity to make a difference; it’s a chance to be part of something truly special. Together, we can inspire hope and change lives! Join us on this incredible journey in 2025, when we will be back to do it all again and be part of the fight against cancer!
Wehold a special staff event known as the Long Service Awards every two years. It was held on Saturday 15th June at Milford Cruising Club where we celebrated a collective 415 years of service for 19 staff members.
This wonderful event acknowledges our staff who have been at the college for a minimum of 15 years to thank them for their service, dedication, and commitment towards our students and their learning.
Michelle Parkinson and Cheryl Hanley are our longest serving staff members with 40 years of service each. An incredible achievement that we had much fun celebrating! Our school and our community are very grateful for the duty and care they have contributed over the last four decades.
Thank you to the staff, family, and friends who helped celebrate this special milestone.
Our next Long Service Awards will be in 2026.
This is a series of wānanga that are held throughout the year. The purpose of these wānanga is to allow Māori students in Tū Rangatira a safe space to learn and practise tikanga Māori and to simply be Māori. On these wānanga, we learn about different aspects of tikanga such as tikanga around food. All year groups in Tū Rangatira have had at least one overnight noho at the marae.
Earlier this year, I had the privilege of going on an overnight noho at Te Taua Moana Marae in Devonport with my Year 11 peers. At the marae, Whaea Kata enriched our understanding of the pou and patterns in the wharenui by explaining their unique meanings. After a bit of volleyball outside and some delicious kai, we headed up to Maunga Takarunga to admire and appreciate how ātaahua the sunset was across Tāmaki Makaurau. We were engaged by the pūrakau Whaea Kata shared with us and enjoyed playing games with each other. Overall, it was an uplifting experience full of whānaungatanga and learning.

The Academic Committee’s main goal this year was to foster academic curiosity, help provide tools to enable students to achieve their best, and to see that learning can be fun. This was accomplished in a number of ways in conjunction with other established programmes.
In Term 1 we had a guest speaker Subash Chander, the brains behind infinityplusone, come and address students in the Auditorium. Term 2 was dedicated to a series of weekly Kahoots on various topics showing that learning can be fun. There were several happy prize winners at the conclusion of these events. In Term 3 the prime focus was on the Family Feud event. This was phenomenally successful with the staff team taking the victory yet again. A sold-out Auditorium with countless individuals unable to be accommodated pointed to the continuing success of this event.
Helping with the Study Skills Workshops and Pathways Evening, particularly the promotional videos, was a way to help promote lifelong learning in the school. Thanks for all the valuable help we had during the year, and we wish everyone the best in their academic endeavours.
The Arts Committee has played a massive part in revitalising all aspects of the arts at our kura. We have had many successful events this year, including Karaoke, Disney Karaoke, Lip Sync Battles, Battle of the Bands, and Dancing with The Stars. They also ran Arts Week which consisted of: Just Dance, Library Day, Drama Day, and a phenomenal Rangi’s Got Talent show. These events brought in huge crowds and helped promote the arts and culture along with the idea of supporting and encouraging one another! Through their leadership and determination, the Arts Leadership Team worked ceaselessly to ensure that all the arts were well represented. The group would like to thank everyone who has helped us this year, especially our Teachers in Charge, Leigh Meggison and Anna Taylor, for their work behind the scenes. As a result of the whole Arts Team’s commitment and dedication, and the support of their peers and sponsors, arts will continue to thrive at the kura.
TheChinese Student Leadership Team is composed of devoted student leaders who are deeply committed to celebrating and promoting our cultural heritage. Through a variety of events, they showcase the rich tapestry of Chinese culture to our diverse student body and the broader community.
Rangitoto College takes pride in its vibrant and extremely multicultural student body, and we actively celebrate this diversity through numerous events highlighting Chinese culture. Our Lunar Festival, in collaboration with the Korean Committee, is one of the many events where we passionately celebrate the Lunar New Year. Additionally, our annual Chinese Night is highly anticipated, featuring spectacular performances of music, dance, and various other talents by our students. The Chinese Pathways Evening is another important outreach event, offering parents the opportunity to seek information and ask questions about our school curriculum in their native language. We also host a week-long celebration for New Zealand Chinese Language Week, further promoting the uniqueness of Chinese language and culture.
Collectively, the Chinese Committee is dedicated to creating a welcoming environment where students from our diverse cohort can fully immerse themselves in the elaborate and beautiful mosaic of Chinese culture, both within our school and in the wider community.
The Community and Environment Leadership Team has had an industrious year, organising a variety of different events. In Term 1, we worked in collaboration with the Sports Leadership Team, collecting used sports gear and equipment for a gear drive. Term 2 was our busiest term, with a bake sale to raise funds for Sustainable Coastlines, planning this year’s Blood Drive in conjunction with the Service Leadership Team, and hosting our annual game of KAOS. This year’s KAOS saw our first nonYear 13 winner in 11 years - William Yu. For Term 3’s non-uniform day, we collected food donations and financial contributions for St Mary by the Sea. This charity operates a food bank service that many of our Rangitoto College whānau utilise. It was a privilege to give back to this charity and to be able to thank them for all they do for our school community.
At our wonderfully diverse school, the Cultural and Globalisation Committee fosters an inclusive environment where every culture is celebrated, and every student feels at home.
Cultural Week is a highlight, showcasing a wide range of cultures in our school. Students and teachers participate in activities like traditional dance performances and sampling delicious food from cultural food trucks, deepening our appreciation for diverse backgrounds.
International Day transforms the school into a global village. Students bring in delicious dishes from various parts of the world for everyone to taste as we celebrate our global community.
Our International BBQ is a relaxed event where students and teachers mingle and enjoy a sausage sizzle or two. We strive to build connections and create a sense of belonging for everyone.
Supporting new and existing international students is a key focus. We organise fun activities throughout the year, from welcome tours to buddy programmes, ensuring every international student feels supported and included from day one.
The committee’s efforts went beyond events, working tirelessly to create an environment where every student feels valued and respected. Here is to another year of their incredible work!
The Korean Leadership Team was established to foster a deeper understanding of Korean culture and to celebrate the rich cultural diversity at Rangitoto College. Over the past year, we have made significant strides, continuing from our previous successes. In February, we collaborated with the Chinese Committee to host the Lunar Festival, which featured traditional games, a variety of cuisines from both cultures, and calligraphy. Another key event was the Rangitoto College Korean Night that happened in June, which attracted a vibrant audience of approximately 750 attendees. This event showcased a blend of traditional and contemporary Korean performances, all prepared by our students over six months. In August, we organized a Korean Information Evening for parents, offering insights into NCEA and IB, school extracurricular activities, and university admissions. This year has been extraordinarily successful for the Korean Leadership Team, and we are excited to plan more engaging events in the future.
Rangitoto College’s Pastoral Leadership Team is dedicated to improving the overall morale and hauora of our rangatahi by promoting inclusivity and awareness throughout the school. This year, we have organised a range of activities and events to allow students to engage with each other and share universal experiences
Pink Shirt Day was a particular highlight this year, as we invited the childhood favourite Harold the Giraffe to make a guest appearance on campus as part of our lunchtime activities, adding an element of nostalgia that we have been eager to promote with this event. From carnival games to face painting, we have managed to not only contribute to a compelling cause but unite the students with a range of options to get involved.
2024 was the first year our kura has formally celebrated Pride, which focused on recognising the LGBTQ+ community within Rangitoto and encouraging diversity and inclusion during a month bearing great historical significance. Students had a chance to partake in a screening of an educational documentary, chalk art in the Sound Garden, and a free face painting session.
Our group is comprised of a wide range of students from various backgrounds, and we are always producing new and exciting ideas for future events. We have a lot of fun together during weekly meetings and organising activities around the college, as our tight-knit group enables us to form strong connections.
We love what we do around the school and being able to provide a fun and welcoming space for each other to collaborate and share our thoughts on event planning and finding creative solutions. We have worked effectively this year to make some incredible ideas come to light, and there is truly no limit to what the Pastoral Team is capable of, we can’t wait to see what’s possible in the years to come!
The 2024 Sports Leadership Team began the year with a clear goal to involve as many Rangitoto College students as possible by organising a weeklong event each term. One of their new initiatives aimed to foster student support and increase participation in sports through events like a turbo touch competition. This competition took place in the middle of Term 3 and brought numerous students together on the turf to compete against one another.
In Term 2, anticipation grew for the eagerly awaited Rangi World Cup. The hockey turf was buzzing with both players and spectators, who enjoyed some impressive gameplay and intense penalty shootouts. In the end, team India 2.0 emerged as the champions.
In Week 3 of Term 3, the gyms were alive with excitement for 3v3 basketball. The games showed impressive talent and attracted enthusiastic crowds who enjoyed watching experienced players and newcomers. The busy week of matches concluded with the teachers coming out as the champions.
An exciting three terms of sports activities were made possible by Zara Sain, Gabrielle Doyle, Cruz Cassidy, and Ted Salmon. Their leadership and inspiration have set the stage for the team to build on this legacy in the years to come.
This year the Service and Spirit Leadership Team has taken part in two main events to help make a positive impact on both the local and global community. The first event was the World Vision 40-Hour Challenge where students from across the school signed up to take part in various challenges over a 40-hour period. In total students from the kura raised over $6000 which went towards helping farmers in Timor-Leste prepare for future climate change impacts. Students in the committee organised in-school events such as a bake sale and sausage sizzle to support the fundraising efforts. The Service Committee’s second event was to raise awareness and money for motor neuron disease. At the end of Term 3, Rangitoto College held its inaugural ice bucket challenge in support of this worthy cause.
Tū Rangatira is a tutor class for Year 10 to Year 13 students. Our kaupapa is to provide opportunities for ākonga to connect with their cultural practices. In this class, te reo Māori is the first language heard and spoken with our daily karakia, mihi, waiata, and mihi tautoko.
Another way we explore elements of our Māoritanga in Tū Rangatira is through various hui. This includes whānau hui, Teacher Only Day professional development, and our wānanga series. These hui bring us together to connect, learn, and support others with tikanga Māori.
The Tū Rangatira tutor class is a terrific way to connect, grow understanding, and develop a true belonging to our kura, especially for students who may not already have a strong connection to their own marae and iwi culture.
At Rangitoto College, our Adopt a Park programme has encouraged many students to dedicate their time to help Centorian Reserve by caring for its appealing greenery and wildlife. We have had great success in removing weeds, clearing rubbish, planting trees, and stream testing throughout the Centorian Reserve, making it a healthier and cleaner space for the many native plants growing in the area. It also makes the location a good spot for wildlife like eels, insects, and birds to thrive in. By doing all this we ensure the reserve stays clean and healthy so that both the public and wildlife can enjoy the fresh forestry and vegetation. The Centorian Reserve is a beautiful and tranquil area with flourishing nature that we take pride and joy in keeping safe and healthy for everyone to appreciate.
AmnestyInternational is a group of almost 200 students who advocate for human rights around the world, coming together to spread awareness and ignite change. Through the form of the peaceful protest of letter writing, students have been able to show their dedication to raising their voices towards numerous current humanitarian issues. This included the case of Rocky Myers, Palestinian journalists who have disappeared, mistreated youth activists in Thailand, and others.
The group has also held various events to spread awareness and fundraise for our cause, including the AmnesTEA painting event, human rights jigsaw, and celebrating Freedom Week. In collaboration with UNICEF, our annual Quiz Night was a resounding success, with 239 attendees!
There are several ways to get involved and advocate for a better world for us all where human rights prevail, and we are always looking for new members to join us.

Rangitoto College has partnered with Vineyards Al Lab to launch the AI Innovation Centre in 2024. Students are taught machine and deep learning for data analysis, prediction, forecasting, recognition, and generative AI. We wish to build a generation that creates and innovates in AI rather than simply using AI tools.
This year, students have researched various fields in AI, including medical healthcare, legal systems, bioinformatics, art, and medical imaging processing. Their work has achieved global recognition through publications in top conferences and journals. They have also developed userfriendly web applications for industry integration. Students have been researching topics such as the use of AI in physics, finance, economics, and cybersecurity.
The AI Innovation Lab has hosted three key activities; InnoMind AI Tech Fest, Simulating Generative AI Model through Performance, and AI Exploration Journey Month.
This year, Ancient Greek Club attendees engaged with facets of the culture, values, history, and beliefs of the Greek-speaking world, alongside some basics of the ancient Greek language (including the alphabet, common words, and pronunciation).
Beginning with the Greek gods and stories from the Trojan War, our club has tracked both mythological and historical events through the centuries, pausing over poets such as Homer and Sappho, playwrights such as Aeschylus and Aristophanes, the great historians Herodotus and Thucydides, as well as historical figures such as Alexander the Great. We have explored religious festivals, the roles of women in Greek society, and changes to Greek funerary art from the Archaic to the Hellenistic periods.
At the end of each session, students practise writing and speaking a few ancient Greek phrases, as well as translating short extracts from ancient Greek into English. Each translation includes a full Greek-English vocabulary list to help guide the students in this process.
We look forward to welcoming new and experienced members back to the club in 2025!
ArtClub is a fully student-run club dedicated to spreading the joy of creativity throughout the school! We aim to create a comfortable and fun space for everyone to make art, regardless of skill, and explore new mediums and techniques. We had an extremely successful year with over 120 members! 2024 was brimming with a range of activities, from making woodblock prints to creating a mural. We ran a DIY fox mask stall on Japan Day to celebrate art across cultures. The Primary Workshop also offered students an opportunity to assume leadership roles and to pass our passion for art to younger members of the community. Thank you to all our artists for this successful and memorable year. We look forward to creating masterpieces with everyone again in 2025!

This year, with our 45 enthusiastic members, Anime Club has been fantastic. The club meets weekly, providing a space for members to come together and share their passion for anime. In our club, we explore a wide range of anime genres and engage in various interesting anime-related activities, which the members enjoy participating in. Additionally, our Anime Club members have gained a deeper understanding of the Japanese language by watching anime, reflecting on the stories, and discovering new insights into Japanese culture.
The original intention of the Asian Calligraphy Club is to promote Asian calligraphy and to help students experience the profoundness of Asian culture. The initiators are several Year 13 IB students, and the participants are mainly Chinese and Korean students from Year 9 to Year 13, with around 30 members in total.
The students mainly write famous quotes, such as 上善若水，厚德载物 (The highest good is like water; Great virtue carries all things) as well as 知不足而上进，望远山而前 (Strive forward knowing one’s limitations; Move ahead while gazing at distant mountains.) While practicing calligraphy, the students also learn some life philosophies.
- 2024 Asian Calligraphy Leaders: Weidong, Luo, Daniel Gao, Janie Lin, Tony Wang, Ziyan Hu, Yoseb Kim, Lucas Luo
Throughout this year, the Biology and Beyond Club worked in S21. In our meetings, we strive to make Biology, and also all other sciences, more approachable. We engage in a range of different discussions, sharing our love for science with each other.
Another aspect of our club is our passion to help others. During every one of our sessions, we strive to help students achieve their potential in their chosen sciences. We do this by helping them with homework, working through past papers, and generally explaining concepts to ensure they can excel.
Additionally, we have aimed to support students in their journey toward a scholarship in Biology. We provide a place to ask additional questions and to make the content more approachable.
F rom humble beginnings in 2015, the Rangitoto Book Club has grown to the point where we have had to split the group into seniors and juniors. At our first meeting in February, we had 91 students attending. We meet twice a term: Juniors on Tuesday under the guidance of Librarians Haidee Roberts and Liz Ott and seniors on Wednesday with Librarian Cherrill Hurley.
Book Club members were encouraged to submit book reviews throughout the year and their names went into a draw for their efforts. These reviews are accessible for all students to read in our library catalogue.
Year 9 and 10 students participated in book-themed activities to help make connections with each other and learn about how the library works.
Recommended reads are continually re-stocked on the Rangi Book Club Stand, and it has proved popular for students who are unsure what to read. Book Club students were also involved in Library Week, promoting, and running activities.
Alisha Tilbury has been the club’s support teacher since its inception, so we were sad to farewell her in July. She has made a rich contribution over the years that has been appreciated by so many students. We are fortunate to continue to have the support of Claire McKay, Corrie Morrissey, and Nada Al-Safi.
The BRCC has seen incredible student participation this year, from new members learning to climb for the first time to others representing our school in national climbing competitions. Our members participated in the Auckland College Climbing Series and National Indoor Bouldering Series, with participants showing strong results and reaching the final rounds of competiton. One of our senior members, Jacob Irwin, even placed third overall in the Youth and Masters National Boulder Championships in Auckland.
Our club has grown in membership and has worked to have bouldering recognised as a competative sport that Rangitoto students can take pride in, as well as being a great opportunity for fitness and community building amongst our members. We have members from all year groups, and looking ahead we hope to recruit more junior leaders that can carry the club on for years to come.
2024 has been a busy year for the Candy Waves Club at Rangitoto College! Our wonderful learners have had the pleasure of creating colouring pages and cards for many children in hospitals around the country this year. This has certainly made these children very happy. We have had a massive growth in the number of learners who are part of Candy Waves this year with an increase from 115 learners in 2023, to 374 learners in 2024! We are so thankful to each and every one of the club members who have contributed to making children smile. A special thanks to the 2024 leaders for their assistance and effort this year!
Throughout the year, the Chess Club has gathered in room M8 every Tuesday at lunchtime, creating a blend of social interaction and competitive play. With over 50 active members, it’s been a great place to meet new people and build lasting friendships. This year, we proudly competed in various tournaments, including the Interschools Tournament on June 21st, where our team achieved a remarkable win, securing a spot in the Nationals this September. All four members—Zachary Yu, Felix Xie, Preeyansh Roul, and Sarah Sun—earned medals for their stellar performances, with special recognition going to Felix and Zachary for perfect scores of 6 out of 6. As we qualified for Nationals, our goal is to defend our title as New Zealand’s Top Secondary School Chess Club. Throughout 2024, we also engaged in friendly matches with local schools, fostering not just competition but also a sense of community and intellectual growth. We’re excited about what lies ahead, and committed to continued success and stronger connections.
This year, the Chinese Arts and Crafts Club delved into the rich traditions of Chinese Culture through various hands-on activities. Students throughout Years 9-13 developed their skills in traditional calligraphy, paper cutting, and knot making. Selected students were invited to join the 2024 Chinese Night Decoration team, in which they constructed decorations from scratch, such as glow-in-the-dark poster boards, hand-painted performance posters, and even a large-scale photo booth in partnership with the Chinese Committee. This year has been action-packed, with more activities and creativity than ever before. We hope to see you join us next year!
Chinese Traditional Dance Club returns in 2024! This year, through the extensive hard work of our leaders, students have had the opportunity to experience and learn new and intricate techniques in traditional Chinese dance. With a diverse array of dance forms and styles, such as Chinese Sleeve Dance, Chinese Umbrella Dance, Chinese Fan Dance, Classical Folk Dance, and more, students can develop and enhance their proficiency in these traditional dance styles while refining their overall dance abilities. In addition to honing their dance abilities and adding touches of traditional Chinese elements, students can obtain a deeper understanding of the rich heritage embedded within these
This is the second year that Rangitoto College has taken part in the Chip Packet Project New Zealand (CPPNZ). The CPPNZ is an organisation that collects empty foil packs that are usually thrown away in landfills and upcycles these foil packs to turn them into lightweight thermal survival blankets. Rangitoto College has had a phenomenally successful year with the CPPNZ by making approximately 40 blankets! These blankets are donated to homeless and less fortunate people who need support in fighting the cold, specifically over the winter season. As a college, we contribute to the CPPNZ by setting up foil recycling collection baskets around the school throughout the year. Our commitment and contribution to the CPPNZ goes beyond our school environment as well. We have started to hold workshops where students get involved by washing, sorting, and ironing the plastic foils into blankets. It has been fantastic to see students getting involved in this service to support those less fortunate than themselves and giving up time for such a worthwhile cause. We anticipate seeing more students getting involved with this initiative and are looking forward to our continued work with the CPPNZ!
TheCoding Club launched this academic year and has quickly become a vibrant hub for young tech enthusiasts to nurture their programming skills and unleash their creativity. This studentdriven initiative meets on a weekly basis, providing a welcoming and inclusive space for learners of all levels to dive into the world of coding. The club has strategically chosen Python as its primary programming language due to its beginner-friendly syntax and versatile applications. By focusing on Python fundamentals, students are building a solid foundation in programming concepts that can be applied across various year groups and abilities. Each week, club members gather for engaging sessions that blend structured learning with hands-on practice. These meetings typically include student-led step-by-step guidance on Python concepts and coding challenges that encourage students to apply their newly learned skills.
The club encourages collaborative work and opportunities for peer mentoring, where more experienced students guide newcomers to programming. This dynamic structure ensures that all participants are actively involved in their learning journey. One of the club’s greatest strengths lies in its ability to create a sense of community among likeminded students. Moreover, the club prides itself on being welcoming to students of all backgrounds and skill levels, leading to a diverse membership that enriches the learning experience for all participants. By providing a supportive environment for exploration and growth, the Coding Club is not just teaching programming; it is nurturing the next generation of innovative thinkers and problem solvers.
The Creative Writing Club is a space that allows students of all year levels to come together and write every Tuesday lunchtime. The club has a regular attendance of about 20 committed writers who are keen to use the quiet space of E4 (and sometimes E18) to explore ideas, build worlds and characters, and share their visions with like-minded creative thinkers. The club was established in response to a growing need for independent expression and vision, in counterpoint to the demands of analytical and critical writing within the school setting. Together or independently, students delve deep into different styles and genres, from fantasies, romances, dramas, sci-fi, poetry, and more. The space gives students a valuable opportunity to share their work with others in a supportive, judgement-free zone. During the important workshopping phase, students are given a voice to build their critical thinking and their ability to edit, as well as forming lasting friendships with their peers. Creative writing helps students to make sense of an ever-changing world, offering an escape into fictional worlds whose possibilities are endless.
Crochet Club is a social and engaging club of like-minded crafters who meet up weekly and work on projects. We compare ideas, share previous projects, and teach others how to get involved. Across the year, we have had many different people come along! Some bring their friends and teach them, and others come to meet new people, learning new things regardless. We have a Google Classroom full of patterns and videos and it is constantly growing and improving, we even had some sponsors gift us yarn for people to use, meaning anyone could come along and try picking it up without committing to buying their own hook and yarn. Overall, the group is a casual and fun way to learn a new hobby and meet new people.
The Cultural Networking Club (CNC) had a fantastic year hosting various activities that embrace the diverse culture at Rangitoto College. We encourage students to learn more about the world and the cultures around them through various lunchtime activities such as our cultural Kahoot quizzes. Collaborative events with other clubs also spark friendships and foster diverse relationships across the kura. The students of the CNC can embrace their culture while learning about the diverse cultures at the school that may not be highlighted in everyday media.
We hope that the students in CNC learn something new about the wider community!
Special thanks to our leaders 2024: CC Perdpipat, Kyrie Cahyadi, Joy Luu, and Aria Hua, alongside our Teacher in Charge, Carmelita Maletino.
This year has been one of the best seasons of debating in Rangitoto debate history. We ran one of our largest junior programmes this year with six Junior Open teams, who have progressed greatly. Rangitoto 2 reached the octo-finals, while Rangitoto 6 reached the quarterfinals in an outstanding finish. We also ran weekly sessions for the Junior Debating Development Programme where the students have gained new skills and confidence. In the Senior Open Grade, we had four teams, one of which reached the octo-finals. In the Advanced Open Grade, we had one team who faced tough competition but still performed outstandingly. These senior students improved their debating skills over the year as they adjusted to their new grades.
At the highest level, in the Premier Advanced Grade, we had two teams for the first time, both of which had good seasons full of challenging motions and tough competition. This year, we offered Junior Premier for the first time and had two teams of extraordinary calibre enter the grade. In this grade, Rangitoto 1, consisting of Year 11 students Hugo Tan, Austin Picard, and Joshua Wang, made the grand final!
Alongside the regular season, we sent multiple teams to weekend tournaments. Three teams attended the Auckland Regional Tournament,
where Joshua Wang was picked for the Auckland Development Squad. We also sent two junior teams to the Junior Championships where JC Team 1 placed second out of 45 teams. We also sent three teams to the Impromptu Cup. Austin Picard and Joshua Wang performed brilliantly, winning the Novice Break Finals. Joshua was top speaker of the break and Austin third best speaker. We also organised a students vs teachers debate in Term 3, which was great fun, and we believe this will become an ongoing debate tradition. This season of debating has been one of growth for the school, and, in our view, the best. We have greatly enjoyed running it alongside our new TIC Mr Birchall and hope the seasons to come are even better!
Signing off, Your 2024 Debate Student Coordinators Spencer and Greer.
The Diabolo Club at Rangitoto College offers a dynamic and engaging space for students interested in the art of diabolo juggling. Open to beginners and experienced jugglers alike, the club focuses on developing skills, creativity, and coordination through weekly practice sessions and collaborative performances. Members have the opportunity to learn a range of tricks, and participate in local and school events, especially the annual Rangitoto Chinese Night, fostering a supportive and enthusiastic community. Whether you are looking to master new skills or simply want to try something new, the Diabolo Club provides a fun and welcoming environment for all.
Diplomacy is a board game created in 1954 that sees players choosing one of the seven major powers in Europe at the dawn of the 20th Century. With a deceptively simple set of rules, it is an easy game to get into but a hard game to master. Diplomacy is a brilliant and well-designed game of a type that few can replicate. The game was even played by the likes of American President John F. Kennedy (no wonder the brinkmanship that was played out during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis!).
Diplomacy is set at the height of political tensions in Europe which would eventually boil over into the outbreak of World War 1. The game has no dice, only pure strategy and negotiation are at play here. You cannot win the game on your own. You need to build alliances to become the dominant power in Europe, and possibly change the course of history!
So, what makes the game great? It embodies the skills needed to negotiate, compromise, and work with others to name a few, all while keeping it fun and off pixelated screens! Contrary to what you may read online, friends are made at the Diplomacy Club as people interact with each other as they form bonds and develop social skills.
Diplomacy is great for History and Geography. Diplomacy helps increase your understanding of the complex historical environment of Europe during the early 20th Century, while also laying bare the geo-political relations of the time. This is the cornerstone of Diplomacy and why it is a magnet for tacticians and politicians alike!
The popularity of Diplomacy is on the increase with enquiries about Rangitoto College’s Diplomacy Club having been fielded from overseas schools! This is in no small part due to the tireless enthusiasm of the four students who help organise and oversee the games and their multitude of players on a weekly basis in K block–Rory Mulcahy, Angus Rose, Daniel Mulcahy, and Callum Keer-Keer.
The Duke of Edinburgh Hillary Award continues to see increasing participation, with 2024 marking another record year. This prestigious award honours students who push their boundaries beyond academics, committing to skill development, physical activities, and community service over a period of three to eighteen months. A key component of the award is encouraging students to step out of their comfort zones through outdoor expeditions lasting up to four days. This year, students had to adapt quickly and organise their adventures with resilience. The tramps, especially for silver and gold level participants, proved to be a significant challenge. For instance, they tackled the highest peak in Auckland’s Hunua Ranges and trekked the 90 Mile Beach for four consecutive days. Despite their difficulty, many students find these expeditions to be the most rewarding, cherishing the memories and friendships they forge along the way.
2024 proved to be another massive year for the Dungeons and Dragons Club with a new record of membership numbers. Many of the players were first-timers but their more experienced peers warmly welcomed them into a large number of exciting campaigns.
On Wednesdays and Fridays after school, the sounds of rolling dice and cries of frustration could be heard in three different M block classrooms as the eager, and sometimes foolhardy, adventurers pitted their wits against the fiendish creations of their Dungeon Masters (DMs). These hard-working and talented DMs spent many hours preparing wonderfully detailed worlds for the players to explore, populated with a host of creatures and non-player characters for them to encounter. One DM even commented that there should be NCEA credits available for the work they did.
There was also an increasing number of DMs using virtual worlds rather than the traditional tabletop environment; this horrifies the purists but is probably inevitable.
The Rangitoto Ecorigami Club is a welcoming and social place to celebrate the art of origami while raising environmental awareness. We are invested in fostering a creative environment for students of all origami skill levels, and we hold a variety of events throughout the year to challenge students and get involved with the wider school community, such as through origami competitions, cultural festivities, and seed planting. Funds raised from these events are donated to Trees That Count, an Aotearoa tree-planting charity.
The Environmental Group working bees brought together students from all year levels to volunteer their time for a greener school. Through our collective efforts we managed the school’s recycling programme, ensuring unnecessary waste was reduced. Each working bee worked quietly in the background with a common sustainable goal. Their dedication to a greener planet has set an example for others, showing that even small actions can have a big impact on our environment.
Now in its sixth year at Rangitoto, Epro8 continues to cultivate a dedicated group of students eager to test their problem-solving skills under time pressure. The competition not only challenges their technical abilities but also strengthens their teamwork and creativity, as they work together to overcome complex challenges.
We had 12 teams of enthusiastic students spend six months honing their skills in preparation for the intense Epro8 competition. Their hard work was put to the test as they competed against approximately 200 other teams from across the greater Auckland area.
We had some impressive results including three of our senior teams winning their heats and four teams making it to the next round.
With their eyes on the future, students are already planning for next year’s Epro8 competition. Eager to take their builds to the next level, they’re strategizing new ways to push boundaries, go bigger, and perform even better. Their enthusiasm and forward-thinking mindset promise exciting things for the challenges ahead.
2024 has been an outstanding year for Esports at Rangitoto College. We have launched the first-ever student-led Esports Committee, empowering our students to organise and run tournaments within the school. Our Esports programme has also welcomed a dedicated teacher coach and a new Teacher in Charge, Connor Green, to lead us forward. Our Premier Valorant team, JKM, remains undefeated in the NZ high school competition, with over 100 teams competing. Impressively, three of our six Valorant teams made it into the top eight, with the others placing in the top 15. In League of Legends, four teams competed, with two reaching the top eight and the others finishing in the top 12. Looking ahead, we plan to train two premier teams for the 2025 competitions, with trials set for later this year. The future of Rangitoto College Esports is brighter than ever!
EVolocity, a premier nationwide competition, invites secondary school teams to dive into the realm of electric vehicles. Teams are challenged to design, build, and race their own vehicles, with the opportunity to compete in two distinct classes: innovation and competition. In the innovation class, participants focus on specific aspects of vehicle design, while the competition class encourages a comprehensive approach to creating the fastest, most striking, and highest-performing car possible.
In 2024, students have collaborated with industry leaders McMullen and Wing to explore the potential of composite materials. This partnership has provided valuable insights into how composite design can significantly enhance strength while reducing weight. As a result, Rangitoto College students developed a carbon fibre floor panel during a workshop facilitated by McMullen and Wing.
Our students are eagerly anticipating the chance to showcase their hard work, innovation, and creativity at the national race day, set to take place at RNZAF Base Auckland in October.
The students involved in this project include Cory Huddart, Neil Caw, Avishai Narsey, Reid Davidson, Rick Huang, Aqib Hossain, Kate Blackett, Frank Cai, Paul Kim, and Connor Nguyen.
The Garden Society is a group of students who have started a community garden project at our school. The garden was built and cared for by students, staff, and community members and aims to teach students how to grow fresh produce. We have a partnership with a food bank in our community and we aim to donate the produce we grow to them.
We completed the construction phase of the project during the first two terms, including several working bees during the school holidays. Our first planting began late in May and plants such as broccoli, cabbage, onions, and beetroot, are currently flourishing and we look forward to providing for our community.
Hands is made up of a dedicated group of senior students who give up their time on either a Saturday or Sunday morning to pack mouse traps for a company in Silverdale. The money they earn is then donated to local organisations that help make a difference in the lives of disadvantaged people in our city. Funds raised were used to buy 100 pairs of warm pyjamas for the Middlemore Foundation, Jammies in June project. The students also donated money to help Orange Sky, an organisation that helps the homeless in Auckland. They visit homeless people in their bright orange minivans, offering them hot showers and warm food while they wash and dry their clothes. The vans are fitted out with showers and washing machines. Lastly, students donated money to Pet Refuge. This organisation helps people to leave abusive relationships by caring for their pets until they can get themselves re-established.
This year was another rewarding and successful year for our student volunteers. Thanks, everyone!

In June, we met with some residents from Knightsbridge Retirement Village, took them on a tour of our garden, and had an enjoyable time as they shared their stories and advice over afternoon tea in the Staffroom. We are pleased that they have agreed to watch over the community garden during the school holidays for us and have invited the students over to visit their gardens in the village.
We are grateful for the support of the school, the Property Team, and Peter Stachurski as we learn about gardening and give back to our community!

College is proud to host the only Hado Club in the southern hemisphere, offering our students a unique opportunity to engage in the world’s first-ever technosport. Under the guidance of National Hado coach Connor Green, 14 students have dedicated themselves to weekly training sessions throughout the year. Our players have shown exceptional skill, with one being part of the top-ranked team and another in the second-ranked team during the Aotearoa Hado Battle Royale competition held at Rangitoto College in June. Our all-student team also secured an impressive third place. Looking ahead, these talented players will compete in the National Hado competition this November, aiming for a spot on the national team and a chance to represent New Zealand at the 2025 Hado World Cup. The future of Hado at Rangitoto College is filled with exciting possibilities!
Rangi’s Hermes Express is an anonymous pen pal club focused on creating connections between students at the kura. Members are assigned to an anonymous partner for a term and exchange letters with their pen pal, giving them the chance to express their emotions, talk about different events in their lives, and interact with someone whom they might not otherwise have met. Across the course of each term, students will drop letters to their pen pal into the Rangi’s Hermes Express mailbox, and at the same time, check to see whether any letters have been dropped off for them. Then, at the end of each term, pen pals are provided with the opportunity to reveal their identities to one another, hopefully continuing their newfound connection into the future. It is possible to sign up at the beginning of each term, so we look forward to welcoming even more members in 2025!
2024 has been our Hospice at Rangi’s inaugural year at Rangitoto College. The group was kick-started in Term 2 by some passionate Year 12 students, Hannah Lee and Lisa Gou, who had been providing volunteer services for their local Hospice Op-Shops. Over the last six months, the group has amassed over 200 students who have been involved in different activities. Our most recent event was a board game’s night to fundraise directly for Hospice. With some excellent organisation from our Hospice Club leaders, this night was a big success, both in fundraising, and students’ enjoyment of the afternoon.
In 2024, the Ignite Christian Club has been led by Year 11 students Lauren Pember and Helena John. Our group has regularly met each week to play games, build friendships, and explore life applications of the Bible in students’ lives.
The aim of the group this year is to help the participants grow in faith together. Our student leaders have numerous games up their sleeves and they also share their own testimonies and help the participants to understand the Bible better. In Term 2, we ran a movie session with food and snacks provided, which had a great turnout.
Ignite Christian Club at Rangitoto College continues to be a space that welcomes Christians and non-Christians to find out more about Christianity, support one another in prayers, and move forward in our faith journey together.
Looking forward to next year, Hospice at Rangi hopes to continue growing its student involvement, to be able to fundraise further, and give more hours of service back to Hospice, which is such a worthwhile cause.
Informatics takes programming to the next level, combining mathematical and algorithmic thinking to solve complex problems through code. This year, under new student leadership, our members have continued to teach each other and explore advanced topics such as segment trees, dynamic programming, and graph algorithms. They’ve not only learned to implement these concepts in code but also applied them successfully in competitive environments.
Informatics is a challenging field with many opportunities for students to participate in prestigious competitions. This year, a considerable number of our students competed in the NZ Programming Contest and the NZ Informatics Competition, where both current students and alumni achieved outstanding results, including division-winning efforts. Some of our students were also privileged enough to be selected to attend the summer camp run by the NZ Olympiad in Informatics (NZOI), where students are trained to compete at the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI).
Innovation Club members have been meeting every Wednesday after school in D9 to identify problems, discuss potential technological solutions, and then work together to design and build these. Members are given an opportunity to learn about various materials and their properties, time to experiment with interesting manufacturing processes, and a chance to use exciting machines like the laser cutter and 3D printers. At Innovation Club, we develop our problem-solving skills, creating products that enrich and improve our lives, and make the future a brighter place.
Every Friday after school, our young jazz musicians come together to learn about jazz in-depth – phrasing, note choices, instruments’ roles, improvisation, and the language of jazz. We rotate between the beginner class and the intermediate class. Some students are already in jazz ensembles, and others are preparing to be in one.
These students are learning advanced jazz theory that is more than just soloing with the Blues Scale and they are starting to incorporate these into their solos. Each fortnight they are assigned specific tasks such as preparing solos, learning to play arpeggios, and using jazzspecific techniques when practising. These students are the future of our jazz programme, and we are so proud of the progress they have made this year. We are very much looking forward to their progress in jazz throughout their time at Rangitoto College!
Junior Shakespeare is a thrilling event organised by Lauren Rabak and Patrick Yam from the English Department. We embrace an inclusive policy where every student who wishes to perform is given the chance to shine on stage.
After auditions, students are placed into different casts, each led by the Teachers in Charge and volunteer senior students, who direct their assigned portion of the play. These separate sections are then woven together for an entertaining and spectacular one-night-only performance, where all the casts unite to present the entire play.
The result is a delightful and humorous blend of the students’ talent and unique personalities, creating an unforgettable experience filled with laughter and creativity. Working with our keen junior students has been a joyous and rewarding journey.
This year, our talented juniors took on William Shakespeare’s chaotic comedy, Twelfth Night.
It has been another memorable year for our international students. From prizegiving and International Day, to trips to the most beautiful parts of New Zealand, our students have had an amazing time immersing themselves in the Kiwi lifestyle and culture. They have filled their days with a range of learning experiences, new friendships, and exciting adventures.
Each one of our students has found their own way to get amongst and be part of the Rangitoto College community.
Herea te mauri o te wairua ki te tangata
Rangitoto Kapa Haka, Te Manawa o Rangitoto, enhances opportunities for students to reconnect and learn traditional practices through haka and waiata. This is a vital pathway for students to safely express themselves and to develop whakawhānaungatanga, which supports individual growth to adapt, lead, manaaki, and work in group settings. The overall goal is to nurture cultural self-identity within our rangatahi.
Kapa Haka is the vehicle to hold Māori kaupapa such as whakatau, pōhiri, kāhui ako events, leadership programmes, Tū Rangatira events, and Te Ahurea Tinorangatiratanga Kapa Haka competition which is held at the start of Term 4. Preparations for this competition are held throughout the year from Term 2.
TheKidsCan Club has been running for three years now. We aim to extend and grow funds for KidsCan NZ Children Charity and Charitable Trust, supporting the education of underprivileged children around Aotearoa.
This year, we organised various engaging events, from bowling night hosted by Zone Bowling, making posters about child poverty, collaborating with Sustainable Coastlines Club in bracelet making, and letter exchanges with the Letters to Strangers Club. These events allow members to engage with each other while fundraising for KidsCan.
A massive shoutout to our leaders: Lily, Catherine, Maya, Florence, Peyton, and our Teacher in Charge Ye Sul Kim! We hope for our club to grow through the years and to make a positive impact on the community collectively.
This year saw the introduction of the Kiwikaner Club at school. As expats, we know how hard it can be to leave everything behind to start a new life abroad. The Kiwikaner Club is a place where all students are welcome. We encourage students to bring their peers to enjoy a little piece of home in the form of food, games, music, and meeting other expats.
We have had an amazing turnout throughout the year, with students coming from all year levels; we shared stories, had some traditional South African treats, and played games such as testing our knowledge of Kiwi slang learned along the way. We also got to take part in celebrating International Day alongside all the other cultures and countries represented at Rangitoto College.
During this time, we had students plan for other school events which allowed us to show just how proudly South Africans can be… “want hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie.”

The IT Assist Club is a group of students who help the residents of Knightsbridge Residential Home with their tech needs. Some afternoons, a group of students walk down to Knightsbridge together to offer support. We do presentations on a selected theme such as teaching how to use apps like Uber Eats, phone controls, and even gaming. Our goal is to make technology more accessible to the elderly, helping them stay connected and confident in using their devices. Through these interactions, we not only provide valuable assistance but also build connections across generations.
Students from selected co-curricular music groups have provided entertainment for “our fans down the hill” on numerous occasions this year. We held two Chamber Music concerts and a Choirs and Brass concert at Knightsbridge, with a wonderful turn out from residents and parents of performers. North Sea Jazz Combo has provided many Sunday afternoons of jazz, which were greatly enjoyed by everyone and are always in high demand. In return, we have had a large contingent of residents come along to our Jazz Club, Jazz Happy Hour, Concertos & Cookies, and A Choral Confection in the Auditorium.
A huge thank you to Year 13 student, Joel Bird, who has been instrumental in nurturing the relationship between Knightsbridge and the Music Department. Joel has organised all the Sunday Jazz Sessions and is so well-loved at KBV that several residents have offered to adopt him!
Thank you also, to the staff members who have given up their time to chaperone visits to the village, particularly on Sundays, and to the parents who make transporting gear and people possible.
Thisyear we began the Knightsbridge Oral History Project. This saw a group of students head down to neighbouring Knightsbridge Village to conduct oral history interviews with residents. Some of the topics being discussed included the polio epidemic in the 1940s-50s, experiences during WW2, New Zealand’s preparation for a possible invasion in the 1940s, childhood experiences in Britain during the war, and much more. This was an incredibly rewarding experience for both residents and students as we were able to learn from each other. Students have also had the opportunity to upskill as oral historians.
The Korean Culture Club, a student-led organisation, aims to share the vibrant aspects of Korean culture with the Rangitoto community in a fun and inclusive atmosphere. During our Thursday lunchtime sessions, we offer a variety of activities that allow students to explore various aspects of South Korea while connecting with others who share an interest in the culture. Our activities range from traditional experiences to modern elements. Notable highlights include K-pop quiz, cooking Korean style pancake (부침개), and dalgona (달고나). Our current leaders, Juni Lee and Tam Yool Kim, have skillfully managed the club’s activities and are eager to introduce even more exciting and creative events in the future.
The Korean Fan Dance Club is dedicated to promoting the cultural heritage of Korean traditional dance called “Buchae Chum.” The club’s performances blend Korea’s history and modern culture, showcasing traditional dances alongside contemporary music that highlight current trends. Through our club, students can immerse themselves in art, culture, and history while participating in exciting performances such as Lunar Festival, ASB Polyfest, Korean Night, and Enrolment Evening. Our current leaders, Claire Yoon and Jimin Yun, have skillfully managed the club’s performances and repertoires and are enthusiastic to help and tutor younger students who are passionate about Korean fan dance.
AtRangitoto College, our Korean Language club had two classes—one for juniors and one for seniors. The junior class, comprised of many eager Year 9 and 10 students, met every Friday at lunchtime. We were fortunate to have Ruth Sun join us in Term 3, where she shared her knowledge with the group. The senior students met every Tuesday after school, and a highlight was when Evangeline Yan participated in the Korean Education Centre’s speech competition—well done, Evangeline! We also bid a fond farewell to Regina Noh, who led and tutored the club for many years and wished her the best in her future endeavours.
Thanks to our students who were eager to learn the Korean language and attended consistently. It was a pleasure learning Korean with you all! I hope you all continue to learn Korean in the next year.
Special mention to our students (including visiting students): Abigail Dilts, Agnes Wong, Alex Vanderbom, Barbara Mikulich, Caitlin Allen-Jackson, Cecilia Shen, Chloe Yang, Evangeline Yan, Esther Sze, Juliana Ringe, Kaia McDonald, Katsiaryna Adaikina, Lexie Liu, Megan Zheng, Mia Tebben, Olivia Kumar, Rona Wei, Yan Cheng, and Ziyan Hu.
Letters to Strangers (L2S) is Rangitoto College’s first mental-health related club. We seek to destigmatise mental illness through anonymous, hand-written, heartfelt letter exchanges that aim to connect people in a non-confrontational way and share individuals’ vulnerabilities. Expressing ourselves through writing can function as a source of healing and comfort as well as reminding others that they are not alone. Since the establishment of the club back in 2022, L2S has grown to over 80 members and more than 200 letters have been exchanged between club members. Themes of the letters this year have included past and present, friends I’ve outgrown, and colours, as well as a letter exchange with Kristin School about a memorable stranger.
Thank you to all our wonderful members and see you next year for even bigger and better things!
From some familiar strangers, L2S Leaders (Rui-Yi, Catherine, Maria, and Zoe)
Not only is the Lion Dance Club a long-standing tradition of Chinese culture, but it has also become an iconic display of Chinese heritage at Rangitoto College. The club, with students from various year levels, consists of multiple lion pairs and instrument players. Under the guidance of experienced instructors, the members dedicate countless hours to perfecting their techniques, all of which are showcased during that year’s Chinese Night. The Lion Dance Club’s dedication and passion have not only helped keep this tradition alive but have also inspired students and others in the community to have a greater appreciation for Chinese culture. As the club continues to grow and evolve, they aim to deliver an even better performance next year. We hope to celebrate and share this unique cultural dance for many more years to come.
“Raising awareness on wellbeing through an exciting safe-spacecommunity for students.”
M2W is a club founded this year by Year 12 students Joy Luu and Charlotte Ng. M2W was founded for students who are looking for a place to make new friends in a welcoming and inclusive environment. In high school, it is becoming more difficult to maintain your mental well-being. So, to take the stress out of things, we want to make things fun by allowing students at Rangitoto College to join in with hands-on mental health activities, talks, and interactive events during lunchtime and afterschool sessions. 2024 has been nothing but a positive and enlightening success. This year M2W has hosted a time capsule letter session, chalk drawing, a colouring page competition, a colouring session, and a fun night. With all the wonderful feedback, M2W is planning on hosting and collaborating on many more events in the new year!
The Rangitoto Mathematical Olympiad Club celebrates its second year of training students and preparing them for the Math Olympiad. We have a super strong student leadership team: Yeonsu Na, John Cai, Alan Sun, Edward Xiao, Gwang Ho Kim, and Leo Wang. Every Thursday during lunchtime, members of the Rangitoto Mathematical Olympiad Club meet up to learn Maths Olympiad tactics from these student leaders.
On 4th April, 70 students participated in the Inter-School Mathematical Olympiad, in which Rangitoto College won four gold, three silver, 13 bronze and eight honourable mentions, and as a result, Rangitoto College has the highest score among all the participating schools. This is the biggest success our school has achieved so far in Math Olympiad. Leo Wang and John Cai won the first and second place in the Senior Division, with Alston Huang and Kyle Tac winning gold medals in the Junior Division. The three silver medallists are Eric Ni, Derek Song, and Elijah Tac.
On Saturday 11th May, the Auckland Mathematical Olympiad took place at the University of Auckland City Campus. Orlando Aguilera, John Cai, Selina Ni, Derek Song, Alan Sun, Leo Wang, Edward Xiao, Alston Huang, Gwang Ho Kim, Jayden Lin, Felix Luo, Eric Ni, Gordon Peng, Elijah Tac, and Kyle Tac represented Rangitoto College and Gwang Ho Kim won fifth place.
On Sunday 16th June, NZMO Round 1 was released and 25 students from Rangitoto College submitted their solutions. To our great surprise, 17 students (compared to only eight in 2023) made their way into the second round: Bonnie Scott, Gordon Peng, Stephanie Yang, Edward Xiao, Hugo
Tan, Alston Huang, Gwang Ho Kim, Sylvia Yu, Sissi Chang, Alan Sun, Camellia Zhang, Daniel Gao, Jaylen Ling, John Cai, Elijah Tac, Leo Wang, and Larry Wu. All these students sat the three-hour NZMO Round 2 on 30th August and we have the best results ever this year – Edward Xiao won a gold medal, Alston Huang, Gwang Ho Kim, John Cai, Leo Wang, and Alan Sun won silver, and Hugo Tan won bronze, with Jaylen Ling and Larry Wu among the honourable mention lists. Historically large numbers of students from Rangitoto College are invited to the NZMOC Training Camp – including Edward Xiao, Alston Huang, Gwang Ho Kim, and Leo Wang.
Last year, after the success in NZMO Round 2, Gwang Ho Kim, Alan Sun, and Edward Xiao were selected into the NZMOC Training Camp and then they sat the British Mathematical Olympiad, Australian Mathematical Olympiad, and Asian-Pacific Mathematical Olympiad. They did so well that all of them were selected into the NZMOC Training Squad of 12 students. However, none of them made it into the final IMO team of six, which was quite a pity. We hope that at least one of them will be chosen to be in the IMO team in 2025.
This year, Rangitoto Maths Competition Club has a strong student leadership team: Yeonsu Na, John Cai, Eileena Bao, Kris Wan, Alex Bai, Joshua Wang, Gwang Ho Kim, and Sylvia Yu. Every Wednesday, members of the Rangitoto Maths Competition Club meet to learn maths competition skills from these student leaders.
In Term 1, the focus was the Otago Junior Maths Competition, in which our students achieved the best results in the past several years—11 students (a 37.5% increase compared with 2023) are among the top 30 nationwide including Gwang Ho Kim placing first in Year 11. The other ten students are Xuan Li, Dingding Mao, Gordon Peng, Stephanie Yang, and Dylan Yin from Year 9, Alston Huang and Felix Luo from Year 10, Alexander Bai, Kyle Tac, and Yanchen Tan in Year 11.
In Term 2, our focus was on the Rangi Mathex, which was a remarkable success—we had over 120 participants, and students had so much fun sprinting and solving Math problems. The top two teams of each year group were selected to represent Rangitoto College, and our student leaders spared no effort in training them every Wednesday lunchtime. As a result, our representatives did very well in the Auckland Mathex—the top Year 10 team came third place, and two Year 9 teams got the fourth
and fifth places, respectively. Year 9 representatives are Gordon Peng, Alan Li, Vincent Xu, Dylan Yin, Tianyi Lu, Nigel Jiang, Barry Xu, and Lucas Wang. Year 10 representatives are Alston Huang, Felix Luo, Aubrey Yu, Clement Choo, Eric Ni, Alicia Bai, Kelin Chou, and Jack Hong.
The Australian Maths Competition was our focus for Term 3. As usual, M19 was crowded each Wednesday lunchtime with young talents learning how to solve problems in a smart way. The result is, consequently, amazingly good. We had 12 high distinctions, which was three times the number we had in 2023, plus 27 distinctions (two more than the previous year). The high distinction achievers are Alston Huang, Siwoo Jang, Dingding Mao, Gordon Peng, Dylan Yin, Yiqing Liu, Felix Luo, Alexander Bai, Gwang Ho Kim, Joshua Wang, Chloe Seo, and Leo Wang.
Finally, the Senior Maths Competition was phenomenal this year— with the most participants (nine individuals and 36 teams!). The result was unprecedented – Gwang Ho Kim won first place in the individual competition and Edward Xiao, Leo Wang, and Alan Sun won second place in the team competition, with John Cai and Eileena Bao placing fifth. It is also worth mentioning that nine teams from Rangitoto College were among the top 20 teams nationwide.
On the 24th and 25th of May 2024, Rangitoto College sent two teams of students to compete at the Rotary International: Model United Nations Assembly hosted by Rosmini College. A Model United Nations Assembly, or MUNA, is a simulation of the United Nations General Assembly where students take on the roles of representatives of a real nation. They debate and seek solutions to global issues. Rangitoto College competed as the countries of Mexico and Switzerland against 103 teams from 46 schools across and beyond Auckland. Our teams debated on the issues of territorial sovereignty, equality of women, and the conduct of nations in space. This event was Rangitoto’s first time competing in this event, but it will not be its last.
The Needlework Club is a warm, inviting, and inclusive space for students of all skill levels, from beginners to experts. Meeting every Tuesday at lunchtime, members enjoy a productive and positive environment where they can work on knitting, crocheting, or embroidery. It’s fantastic to witness the club’s collaborative spirit—students are eager to learn from each other, while leaders gain confidence by sharing their knowledge.

NovelWriting Club is a space for our curiously minded students to explore novel writing and to potentially get a few chapters under their belt. Using the NaNoWriMo Young Writers programme, students are encouraged to share their stories and respond to writing prompts to stretch their imaginations. As the year progresses and our novel writers begin to share ideas, we embark on a shared novel in which all students take control of one chapter each and respond to a story prompt. This year’s shared story is set against the backdrop of the United States in the 1830s, while the railway systems are being built. Students take charge of certain characters and decide how the plot evolves. As always, Novel Writing Club remains as a space for like-minded writers, who want to enjoy the journey of writing strange and interesting narratives.
Thank you to everyone who came along to our sessions this year and we look forward to continuing in 2025.
parkrun is a weekly five-kilometre exercise event held at 8 am every Saturday. They are held at local parks around our community and globally. Anyone of all ages and abilities can join in. You can either walk or run and there is no pressure to be a hare and go sprinting off at the start, they do say the tortoise wins the race, but parkrun is not a race it is a fun event for all. Students from all years have been taking part either as volunteers or participants, and in some cases performing both roles on the same day. The volunteering opportunities at parkrun help our students build their interpersonal skills, like teamwork and communication, in a fun and rewarding way. Volunteers make parkrun possible, by helping to set up the event, scanning peoples’ barcodes as they enter the finish funnel, being a tail walker, and ensuring that nobody gets left behind or lost. Most of our college support has been at Sherwood Reserve in Browns Bay, but students have also taken part at Hobsonville Point and Metro Park in Millwater. Some have even travelled further afield with their families, especially as parkrun is a global phenomenon with over 2,000 events worldwide. To find out more, visit www.parkrun.co.nz
Come down next Saturday and give it a go!

The Philosophy Club is a student-led organisation that welcomes everyone to eat, laugh, and argue. The format of the club was centred around discussion of a question. The teacher would present four or five different questions and then students would vote on what to discuss that day. Once the discussion started the teacher would step back and observe the conversation meander to such a wide range of places. Ostensibly we pursue answers to “big” questions of ethics, existence of God, and meaning of life. The conversation is a platform of connection between students who might otherwise not be friends. Students experience the thrill of convincing their friends that they are right, but also the joy of having to reconsider their own beliefs.
Platform for the Needy (PLANE) is a non-profit organisation based in Uganda, advocating, and protecting human rights. Genderbased violence, environmental conservation, health awareness promotion, social security, preventing violence against children and women, human rights promotion, and mitigating the impact of violence against children and the youth are the focuses of PLANE. More specifically, the disadvantaged and vulnerable populations are targeted by PLANE to help them have a better quality of life.
In 2024, PLANE aimed to raise awareness and money to provide educational support for vulnerable children in need through scholastic materials and school fees. At Rangitoto College, we raised over $300 in our Term 3 bake sale and cookie-decorating event. The club aims to involve Rangitoto students to help the vulnerable and inspire them to make meaningful choices during their time at Rangitoto College.
Join PLANE if you are interested in advocating for the protection of human and children’s rights, to help meet their basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential!
Rangi Photo Club is a vibrant community where members learn the art of composition and photography techniques through our lunchtime sessions and hands-on experiences. We explore various photography techniques and hold exciting competitions that challenge our creativity. Students also participate in a range of different activities like photoshoot sessions and photo scavenger hunts, fostering both skills and friendships. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned photographer, our club offers opportunities to grow, share, and celebrate the joy of capturing moments.

It has been a positive year for the members of the Rainbow Rangitoto community. The group welcomes all members and is a place for diversity, acceptance, and pride in living our authentic lives. The start of the year was full of activities from Big Gay Out and Pride celebrations in February and that has been maintained over the year with positive support and recognition within the college. We continue to work on our goal of making Rangitoto College a safe community and having all students be an ally. Thank you to all the students who participate openly and to those who can’t, know we see you. Everyone is welcome.
This year saw the establishment of the Rangitoto Riders (dirt bike) Club. We have created a close-knit group of young men who are passionate about dirt bikes and riding. This year our Rangi Riders have gone on several exciting group rides. Some notable trips have been to Waitemata Motorcycle Club open days in the Riverhead Forest, and a day near Muriwai at the Sandpit Motorcycle Park. As well as organising group rides for our members, we have created a group of like-minded individuals who share their knowledge and expertise on maintenance and riding. This has been a positive development for our school as it is a place where riders can come together, have fun, and share. 2024 has been a fun year for our club and we hope to bring on even more members next year!
The Rangitoto College SPCA group, led by students Tiana Schwarz, Vanessa Pham, Sarah Li, Joy Luu, Mary Haddad, Gloria Zhang, and Gabriel Lin has shown commendable commitment to animal welfare throughout 2024. Their innovative fundraising activities, including dog toy crafting, bake sales, and movie nights, have made a significant impact in supporting the SPCA’s mission. These efforts resonate strongly within both the school and the wider community.
In addition to raising funds, the group has collected practical donations such as blankets and homemade dog toys, reflecting their genuine concern for animal comfort. Their creativity is also evident in the informative newsletters they produce, which raise awareness about the importance of ethical treatment and animal welfare.
These activities not only generate essential funds but also strengthen the bonds within the group, highlighting the spirit of whakawhanaungatanga. The Rangitoto College SPCA group serves as an inspiring example of how thoughtful, student-led initiatives can bring about meaningful change for animals in need.
The Rangitoto Islamic Association (RIA) is an inaugural club at our school dedicated to both Muslim and non-Muslim students interested in learning about Islam. We provide a friendly atmosphere for students to explore Islamic teachings, exchange knowledge, and form new bonds. The association offers various activities for engagement, such as group prayers, club events, and interfaith dialogues. During Cultural Week, RIA showcased Islamic culinary diversity through our homemade international cuisines. The RIA Artistic Fusion evening, featuring Islamic trivia Kahoots, Arabic calligraphy, and henna art, was also a resounding success. With an emphasis on unity, RIA promotes co-operation across diverse cultures, nurturing a community spirit within our members. RIA’s goal is to motivate students to deepen their interpersonal connections and make a constructive impact on society. By fostering education, community outreach, and support, RIA aims to leave an enduring mark on its members and the broader school community.
The Rangitoto Reporter is a club for all journalist enthusiasts. Those who have a passion for good stories and a thirst for knowledge can work towards online publications on the website created by Rangitoto students. This year members have written film and book reviews, editorials, news articles, and opinion pieces. All year levels and abilities are welcome to attend and contribute. The club is a cohesive and inclusive group. Members can use the scaffolds and other how-to guides on Google Classroom to hone ideas and polish writing. Feel free to drop into our regular meetings in E2 every Wednesday lunchtime. Bring kai and an enquiring mind.
Any questions please contact Emma Poyner or Annie Finnie from the English Department. Alternatively, feel free to simply pop in and join us.
At Rangitoto College, the Red Cross group has been doing its part to provide support and raise awareness for the Red Cross’ mission both in the community as well as providing fundraising support. Their efforts have included holding a movie night and showing Kung Fu Panda 4 where they raised $1515. They have also held a pop-up thrift shop and raised $200.
This year in Robotics Club, our new junior teams have been working hard on trialling robots that can both manoeuvre and pick up items. With the departure of our most experience senior members some of our new junior members have been keen to take on the responsibilities of leading the teams to organise in house competitions and the next wave of new members.
Rubik’s Cube Club has run every Tuesday lunchtime this year. It has been a welcoming space for all students, whether they were just learning to solve their first cube or are seasoned speedcubers. It has been incredible to see students of all levels come together and share their passion. Every single student in the club has improved their skills throughout the year, with a couple of them going on and competing in tournaments as well. It has been rewarding to see the happiness that comes from the beginners solving their first cube and the excitement of Rubik’s cube experts who achieve new personal bests by shaving milliseconds off their personal best times. It has been a successful and enjoyable year for our members, and we strive to continue improving our skills next year.
The Science and Engineering Student Association (SESA) is a group of over 100 enthusiastic students who love diving into the world of science through hands-on experiments and exciting activities. The club is all about having fun, getting creative, and exploring the wonders of science while meeting like-minded people.
This year, we’ve done some amazing stuff. Ice-cream making is always the most popular activity. Who doesn’t like combining science and food? This year slime-making was a new activity which proved almost as popular as ice-cream. Students were able to make and take home their own slime.
Students have relished spending time finding out how science and engineering relate to the real world.
Throughout the year, a group of students who were keen to meet socially and create their own scale models, would meet after school in D4 at least once per week. The classroom allowed students to engage with the creative process of making a range of kit-set models, particularly cars and planes, and afforded them the opportunity to critique and improve their creations. The students enjoyed their time spent together and had a lot of laughs along the way. Feel free to pop by next year and absorb yourself in the fun!
So far this year, our Special Olympics teams have attended two ribbon events. Firstly, in Term 1, we took 16 students to the Athletics Ribbon Day held at the Millenium Athletics Track where they engaged in many track and field events.
In Term 2, we took three teams to the Football Ribbon Day at the Eventfinda Stadium in Glenfield. Two of our teams took out first place in their groups and the other came a respectable fourth place.
All of the students represented Rangitoto College with pride and gave their best efforts, as for some of them it was their first Special Olympics experience. The students had a thoroughly wonderful day.
State of Mind is a proactive group dedicated to de-stigmatising discussions surrounding mental health, particularly within the Rangitoto College community. It was founded this year, and an increasing number of students attend the weekly meetings held in J7. These sessions provide a safe and supportive environment where students can engage in open and honest conversations and discussions about anything related to mental health.
The primary goal of State of Mind is to create a culture of understanding and acceptance regarding mental health. By encouraging students to share their experiences and feelings, the group aims to break down the barriers that often prevent individuals from seeking help or discussing mental health challenges. The discussions cover a wide range of topics, allowing students to explore their emotions and learn from one another’s experiences.
The success of State of Mind this year is evident due to the wonderful student leaders Catherine Lu and Charlotte Ho, and the Teacher in Charge Ye Sul Kim.
As the group continues to grow, it remains committed to its mission of creating a safe space for dialogue, promoting mental well-being, and ultimately transforming the way mental health is perceived within the kura.
The Student Volunteer Army (SVA) is a New Zealand based movement intended to mobilise students throughout the country to get involved in volunteering. Volunteering is the act of giving up your time to help others without expecting anything in return, and the SVA offers a programme through which individuals can be rewarded for their service in the community as well as providing a platform for students to log their volunteer hours.
The positive effects of volunteering for oneself and the community are numerous. Volunteering is a way to learn valuable skills such as empathy, communication, teamwork, leadership, and problem solving, all whilst supporting important causes. Participating in acts of service is particularly important to development in young people and can broaden their perspectives on the world.
187 students at Rangitoto College are registered as members of the SVA, and this year have volunteered for a cumulative 7,050 hours. The more hours recorded by students, the more badges they will acquire in recognition of their service. Additionally, at any time, students can print out their ‘Summary of Service’ to show future employers, universities, or their family and friends, a brief summary of the volunteering efforts that they have been involved in.
During Volunteer Week (which occurred in 2024 from June 16th – 22nd February), students are particularly encouraged to record their hours of volunteering. Rangitoto ranked as the third most volunteered hours and even more impressive, Denham Turley was recognised as a top volunteer coming third overall nationally.
Newly established in 2024, Students Against Dangerous Driving (SADD) is dedicated to promoting the importance of road safety and empowering young Kiwis to adopt safe driving habits. Recognising the relevant issue of road trauma as a leading cause of harm among 16 to 24 year olds in New Zealand, SADD actively influences the Rangi community to make safer decisions on the road. Over the year, we hosted four successful events: the road safety quiz, SADD Expo, road safety workshop, and safe driving awareness poster making. Despite being our first year we are proud to have engaged over 300 students and raised nearly $600. With strong partnerships with SADDNZ, NZ Police, AT Transport, and VTNZ, we’ve laid a solid foundation for continued advocacy of safer roads in our community.
Passionate about road safety? Join RangiSADD in 2025 and help make a difference! If you are passionate about fostering a healthy driving environment to save lives on the road, join RangiSADD to participate in our initiatives! Special thanks to our leaders of 2024: Yuna Song, Daisy Gao, Chloe Seo, Gabriel Lin, Rui-han Ong, and Ellie Rowbotham.
The Sustainable Coastlines Club is a passionate, student-led group dedicated to protecting our beaches and oceans. Throughout the year, we organised beach cleanups, awareness campaigns, and educational workshops to promote environmental stewardship within our community. Together, we made a positive impact on our local coastlines, fostering a love for the ocean and inspiring others to join the movement for a cleaner, more sustainable future.

This year, the Textiles Club has been the place to be for all things creative and crafty! Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned sewist, our club has offered something for everyone.
Our beginners’ group meets every Thursday lunchtime, where students kicked off the year by making vibrant bunting for the Pīpīwharauroa Festival. From there, they’ve moved on to fabulous projects like patchwork tote bags, each showcasing their newfound skills and creativity.
For our more advanced members, Tuesdays after school have been buzzing with even more ambitious projects. A standout moment was when Tia Billinghurst, one of our talented students, designed a stunning dress inspired by the Auckland City skyline and entered it into the prestigious Walk The Line competition.
It’s been an exciting year filled with laughter, learning, and lots of sewing. We can’t wait to see what new projects and talent next year will bring!
UNYouth is part of a larger non-profit charity that focuses on educating youth about global issues and diplomacy. Led by four High School Ambassadors, UN Youth’s goal is to bring fun and education together in the form of workshops and events. UN Youth’s main event is Rangitoto College’s annual Model United Nations, an academic simulation of the United Nations where students play as delegates from different countries and attempt to solve world issues and policies with the perspective of their assigned countries. In addition to that, UN Youth also helps promote local government news such as the Auckland Council Feedback form. This allows youth to share their voice in a comfortable and safe environment. UN Youth’s main goal is to gather likeminded people and develop future leaders.
UNICEF, the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund, is a global organisation dedicated to promoting and protecting the rights of children worldwide, ensuring they have access to healthcare, education, and safety to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential.
Over the first two terms, students met on a regular basis after school in D4 to learn the craft of creating jewellery items and adornments for their themselves, their friends and family, and for charity. The group was run by senior students, who enjoyed the opportunity afforded by a leadership role, by way of interacting with motivated students who were driven to create unique pieces.
To contribute to this global cause, students created online noticeboards about human rights topics. They also organised a movie night and a hugely successful quiz night in collaboration with Amnesty. These events not only raised awareness about crucial social issues but also built a keen sense of community and shared purpose among students while supporting UNICEF’s mission.
UNICEF at Rangitoto College consists of a committed group of over 200 active students from different year levels who are motivated to bring attention to global issues. This year, they have raised over $5000 through a series of events to raise awareness and funds for the ‘Children of Gaza Crisis’ appeal.
A huge thanks to the Rangitoto community and to our UNICEF leadership team this year consisting of: Alice Knight, Ben Lee, Desiree Lin, Gabriel Lin, Lucas Wang, Phoebe Lin, and Tim Ling.
This year the Performing Arts Department has again been incredibly busy. While the long-term effects of the pandemic are still evident in slightly higher absence rates compared to before, the commitment of students and staff to the co-curricular opportunities offered at Rangitoto College has been nothing short of spectacular.
To prove this point, let’s look at the co-curricular scope of Performing Arts:
This year there were 51 co-curricular groups across Music, Dance, and Drama with a combined total of 1223 students involved. This means that a third of our student body participates in one or more Performing Arts ensembles. From Rock Bands to Symphony Orchestras, Theatre Sports to Productions, Ballet Troupe to Hip Hop Crew, there is a place for anyone interested in working hard and doing well. If you think about the individual performances of these groups combined (e.g. competitions, concerts, trips, special assemblies etc.) it becomes clear that there are more co-curricular performances happening than there are days in the year—and this is not considering the rehearsals required to prepare for these many performances!
The quality achieved in our co-curricular programme is nothing short of amazing either. Despite competing across such a broad range of disciplines we are consistently represented in the top tier nationally, and in some areas, we are setting the standard of what “the top” means in New Zealand.
So, why are we setting ourselves this huge task? What is the outcome here? Some may think the opportunities are too many and distract from the primary academic focus of secondary education. Some senior politicians may express their personal view that Performing Arts is not essential but is “nice to have”. They could not be more wrong!
“Performing Arts at Rangitoto College has shaped my life forever— through our Music, Dance, and Drama Departments
I’ve become a performer and a person I am proud to be.”
Harrison Maxwell, Year 13
“I am so grateful for the incredible opportunities to grow and excel in singing, dance, and drama through the extensive co-curricular activities which allow me to pursue my passions in Performing Arts.”
Rosie Lenik, Year 11
Why? Because in our Performing Arts Department it is all about learning. Students learn how to commit, how to follow a long-term goal, how to collaborate, and how to work extremely hard—and these are only the soft skills. The academic rigor through literacy, analysis, critical and strategic thinking, auditory and visual processing, high cognitive demands, and retrieval practice could not be higher through any other activity. When you perform, your brain is active in all regions, and this is a proven fact. Another piece of evidence is that students in Performing Arts are doing well regardless of what academic pathway they choose after high school.
I would like to congratulate and thank all our students for the enormous contribution they have made to our co-curricular Performing Arts programme during 2024, as well as our parents for their continuous support. One last statistic to share with you; our department consists of 12 classroom teachers, four support staff, and 23 specialist tutors. The entire co-curricular Performing Arts programme is run by only 16 staff who give their time and considerable expertise freely, every day, in support of our students. For me personally, this last statistic is the most humbling.

students performed to a full Auditorium on Sunday 23rd June, with more supporters than ever before attending our annual Concertos & Cookies concert. The wonderful Food Technology Department again baked and packaged over 550 cookies, which were gleefully given out as the audience took their seats to enjoy an afternoon of orchestral and band music. A diverse programme was delivered by Concert Band, Wind Orchestra, Symphony Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra, two String Orchestras, and three Chamber Groups. We were thrilled to again have a significant number of supporters from Knightsbridge Village, along with families, friends, alumni, and teachers in attendance.

As the final showcase in the Music Department calendar, the expectations on A Choral Confection are high, but of course we rose to the challenge and delivered an evening sweeter than ever! A record number of guests were greeted with a delightful assortment of confectionery upon arrival, followed by a delectable array of performances from the four Rangitoto College choirs—The Minuettes, Serenata, Cambiata, and The Fundamentals. Choral brackets were interspersed by melt-in-the-mouth solo and trio items from selected students and staff, as well as a truly heartwarming medley delivered by the Year 9 Vocal class. This vocal pick ’n’ mix was a real treat for all ages and tastes and was the perfect way to conclude our phenomenally successful 2024 concert series.

Our second annual Jazz Happy Hour was held on Friday 24th May at 4 pm and was enjoyed by a full house of Rangitoto staff and students, Knightsbridge residents, and parents of performers. The Auditorium was transformed into a cosy club space with small tables, lots of lamps, and this year, moody purple lighting to set the scene. Year 13 jazz guitarists Julian Roe and Joel Bird provided background music as the audience arrived, then glided seamlessly into MC duties for the afternoon. The programme featured jazz combos Newport, Leverkusen, Manawatu, Java, and Copenhagen, finishing with a set from the Year 9 Big Band class—a wonderful way to relax after a busy week at school.
Our ninth annual Jazz Club was a tremendous success as always!
A record number of supporters in the audience were entertained throughout the evening by MC and jazz combo tutor, Jono Sawyer—who is always quick with a joke, and ensures there is a smile on every face in the crowd. The jazz staff, along with student pianist Yule Chon, provided the arrivals entertainment, followed by exceptional sets from North Sea, Montreux, and Stockholm combos, then Jazz Band, Jazz Orchestra, and Big Band. Vocalists Joules Jordan and Elinor Coghlan were undoubtedly the crowd favourites.

Combine a darkened Auditorium, café-style seating, two stages, lighting effects, and stage smoke with delicious slabs of rocky road, 13 rock bands, four duos, one solo act, and two very entertaining hosts and what do you get? An incredible evening of rock (and rocky road) of course! 65 students performed on stage, ten students ran the tech for the event, and numerous other students helped backstage, in the kitchen and with ushering. This boutique rock concert is gaining popularity every year, and as with all our music events this year—it smashed the 2023 ticket sales record!

“As head of Tech Crew for 2024, I’ve been able to take on so many new opportunities and to grow, not only as a leader and ‘techie’ myself but to help build a team that recognises and develops emerging student leaders. Tech Crew has not only taught me how to use different equipment or various practical skills, but how to communicate and organise with people from multiple disciplines, just as one would in a professional production setting. I have collaborated closely with our Teacher in Charge and a small team of seniors to create a Tech Crew environment that is welcoming to everyone and will hopefully let others build the same friendships and find the same community that has become such an important part of my life over the past few years. I am grateful for everything I have gained from my time as part of, not only Tech Crew, but as a member of the wider Performing Arts team, and I leave knowing I will take all the amazing memories and skills forward into my professional life.”
Olesya Korchagina, Year 13
“The Tech Crew has been a great learning experience and being an essential part of the Performing Arts Department has been such a wonderful opportunity. From lighting up shows and setting up audio systems for lunchtime Arts Committee events, to staying late for Korean night—Tech Crew will be an experience I will never forget.”

This year our dance showcase FUSE, blended diverse styles of dance into a unique tapestry of movement and expression. There was a fusion of tradition and innovation as dancers blended elements from various genres such as contemporary, hip hop, jazz, ballet, and world dance traditions. Each piece in FUSE celebrated unity and diversity, exploring themes of identity, community, and the shared human experience through movement. This year’s showcase was a combination of curricular and co-curricular dance classes and troupes, coming together to highlight the incredible talent of every student involved in dance at our kura. The diverse lineup of performances demonstrated the breadth of skills and creativity nurtured within our dance programme.
Our Year 9 students kicked off the showcase with energetic dances set to nostalgic soundtracks, blending jazz and street dance elements. For many of these young performers, this was their inaugural stage experience, and they exhibited remarkable confidence and enthusiasm in every
performance. Our Year 10 dancers were a standout with their vibrant cultural dance piece, the Samoan Sasa, skilfully led by Zoe Salatielu. In addition, they showcased their street dance skills and performed a lively tribute to the Bob Fosse era.
In the senior school our Year 11 students explored a diverse range of dance styles from musical theatre, Latin, and contemporary dance. The Year 12 students impressed with their meticulously executed contemporary repertoire, choreographed by their teacher Renee Richards. They also dazzled with a dynamic Indian hip hop piece, demonstrating their versatility and stage presence. Our graduating class of Year 13 students, having dedicated two terms to their choreographic assessments, delivered impressive works in a professional theatre setting. Their journey through the full creative process culminated in high-calibre performances, highlighting their talents in musical theatre, hip hop, and cultural dance. This cohort exhibited the school values and essence of dance showcase and were a pleasure to work with in the lead up to dance showcase.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who contributed to making FUSE a resounding success. From the dedicated performers to the supportive staff and enthusiastic audience, this showcase has set a new standard for our dance programme. FUSE involved 260 dancers, 856 costume items, 256 lighting cues, 860 crowd supporters, 32 dances, two dance teachers, 14 student choreographers, and countless magical moments!
Jennifer Potaka, Curriculum Leader of Dance
Magnum Junior Troupe has provided a terrific opportunity for our young jazz dancers to continue to extend and hone their technical skills. Kira Morgan and Mia Rajaratnam, our student captains, have worked hard to get their piece I Love It premiered at the Dance Showcase and ready for the Dance NZ Made regional competition. This dance is upbeat, energetic, and full of power and placed 1st overall in the Year 9-10 division. We would like to thank Mia Rajaratnam and Kira Morgan for all their efforts.

Our senior jazz dancers have had a wonderful year of dance. Starting the year off with a combined junior/ senior number titled Paris to Berlin, choreographed by Summer Hawkins and Ryleigh Hing. This show stopping dance took out 1st place at the National Dance Challenge in the jazz division and 1st runner up at Dance NZ Made in the open division. Following this, our senior dancers took on a piece titled The Show Must Go On, which explored a commercial contemporary feeling. From small and fluid detailed movements to passionate and hardhitting moments the mixture of dynamics and textures is used to embody themes of resilience, perseverance, and prevailing hardship. This dance took out the 11-13 division at Dance NZ Made regionals, qualifying for the national competition, as well as placing 1st runner up overall. A special thanks to Summer Hawkins and Ryleigh Hing for their warm and encouraging leadership of Magnum Troupe in 2024.

In 2024 Overture Ballet troupe performed a captivating dance entitled Can’t Catch Me Now. This dance was inspired by The Hunger Games and featured 28 talented dancers who have worked hard to produce a beautiful dance work. The dancers in Ballet Troupe brought this piece to life through their expressive movement and passionate dancing making it a truly thrilling piece choreographed by Jorja Boese and Melody Ullrich. At the National Dance Challenge, they received 1st place in the Lyrical division and at Dance NZ Made regionals they came away 4th runner up in a highly competitive open division.

Year
2024 has been one of the most successful years for Rangitoto College’s Magnum Company under the leadership of our Year 12 and 13 students Greer McKenzie, Jiwoo Yeam, and Bella Iti. With over a hundred students auditioning at the beginning of the year wanting to be a part of the group! It has always been inspiring to see the next generation of talented dancers coming through to the college. Due to the large amount of talent and growth in numbers, we decided to provide another opportunity this year by splitting into a junior and senior company to allow student leaders to work more closely with a smaller group, where they were able to extend their creativity and technical skills on individual dance works.
Magnum Company received 1st place and a musicality award at the National Dance Challenge in June this year with their piece titled Hydra. Along with a nomination to attend the National Youth Performer Awards in Palmerston North this October. This is a terrific milestone for our dancers, as one of the top events in New Zealand and it is a privilege to receive this nomination which is largely given to Dance studios. Just recently Magnum Company also placed 3rd runner up in the open division at Dance NZ Made Competition at the Trusts Arena this August where over 500 students were involved. A massive congratulations to Magnum Company, their discipline and hard work in 2024 has been outstanding and we are super excited to see what 2025 will bring!

Drama Company looks to give students plenty of opportunities to experience life on the stage. We take students from Year 9 right through to Year 13 and find that these experiences support student development in their curriculum work as well. Our focus is on building student confidence, connection with others, and the knowledge and skills in performance and stage arts to be successful outside of the classroom.
We use vertical teaching methods to help empower our senior students through leadership opportunities and to inspire our younger students to grow their dramatic understanding.
This has been another full year for the Drama Company. We started the year with the play Bravado by Francesca Browne. Bravado is a play about an all-girls high school drama class putting on a production of Macbeth This was the first showing of Francesca’s fun and vibrant play. Having workshopped with our students over the last two years, Francesca kindly gave Rangitoto Drama Company the first opportunity to showcase this show. As a play centered on teenage girls, our students really connected with the work and had a blast putting it on. Having the opportunity to place women front and centre in a play is exceedingly rare and to do so in such an honest and fun way has been a delight. Audiences were wowed by our students’ incredible performances and the play has now been picked up by other theatre companies within New Zealand.
Also in Term 1, we held our annual Theatre Festival. This event allows students to create their own original piece of theatre or develop a scene from an existing play. This gives students the opportunity to showcase their writing, directing, or acting skills, as well as giving them valuable insight into the process of creating theatre. Some fan favorites this year were Olesya Korchagina’s take on rebellious teens in the 1990s, both funny and chilling in equal measure; Rae Laubscher’s Sick Day, a hilarious look into the mind of a teenage girl experiencing the worst day ever; and Joules Jordan’s nostalgic play about childhood friends reconnecting. All students involved in the day had a great time showcasing their work for their friends and family.
For the first time in recent years, we participated in the Shakespeare Globe Centre NZ University of Otago Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festival, with three groups of students performing self-directed Shakespeare scenes at the Regional Competition in April. Max Lloyd received an individual award for his expressive acting while blindfolded, and Joel Bird, Jedi Jumig, and Harrison Maxwell were selected to advance to the National Festival with their scene from King Lear. This took place over King’s Birthday Weekend in Wellington, where the students impressed audiences at the iconic St James Theatre and received an award for best song in a scene.
Our big show this year was The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. Marlowe is a contemporary of Shakespeare, and the
This year it has been my great pleasure to supervise the Theatresports Club. Every Tuesday afternoon, I’ve been treated to hilarious, onceonly improvised performances from a group of enthusiastic and talented students. Epic quests, high-octane cryptic crosswords, scenes from the Austrian Gothic genre—every week brings something new.
Year 13 student leader Casey Devonshire ably led the club’s weekly meetings. She reflected, “I have enjoyed leading a space in which people feel free to try new things and have a lot of fun with a supportive community around them.” This positive atmosphere was evidenced in the keen new members who became regular attendees in 2024, besides the seasoned members continuing to share and develop their improvisational know-how.
Through our involvement with the Theatresports Youth Programme (TYP), students enjoyed club meetings with guest tutor and improvisation expert Madeleine Lynch; student leader workshops for a few of our senior members; and the opportunity to represent Rangitoto College in TYP interschool competitions. In these competitions, teams from across Auckland perform for a live audience and are assessed by a panel of judges on technique, storyline, and entertainment. Succeeding in all of these requires quick thinking, creativity, courage, and teamwork.
show follows the life of Faustus, a man blinded by ambition, who sells his soul to the devil to gain some magic tricks. While he has fun with his new powers, playing tricks on others, it is a hollow victory and as his time on Earth draws to a close, he realises he has made a terrible mistake, but must now suffer the consequences of his actions. Despite the macabre themes and ideas, the play itself is full of fun and musical moments. Our lead this year, Year 13 Casey Devonshire, was an outstanding Faustus, playing the complexity of the characters vulnerabilities perfectly. Year 13 Joel Bird, who played Mephistophilis in our Thursday and Saturday shows, and Caleb Wright helped put together a rocking soundtrack to this play, including an original piece written especially for the show. Our students had an exciting time performing wild and wacky characters and their ongoing support of each other is a joy to behold.
This year, special thanks goes to Y13 leaders Olesya Korchagina for all her work backstage and helping other students build moments for stage, as well as organising tech crew; Jedi Jumig, who helped choreograph movement; and to Joel Bird for his leadership with music. Also, to Kate McKenzie and Charlie Hodge for modelling such positive attitudes and always being ready and willing to jump up and take on different aspects of leadership.
Our final mention goes to student-written and directed Afloat, 20 Years After the Rise Afloat is a musical written by Year 13 Harrison Maxwell and alumnus Sammy Hook and performed and teched by Drama Company students. It was an incredible achievement for these budding creators, and they should be extremely proud of what they have achieved.
Our teams, featuring Casey Devonshire, Troy Etherton, Max Lloyd, James Todd, and Fergus White, thoroughly entertained audiences with uproarious games such as genre rollercoaster and slow-motion commentary. Two of the matches were hosted at our own David Hodge Performing Arts Centre, where judges Lori Dungey and Frankie Browne described our teams’ performances as “textbook fabulous,” “hilarious,” and “charming,” and commented on their fantastic characters and energy.
The Theatresports Club members should be really proud of everything they’ve achieved this year, both in and out of competitions. I hope that the friends and memories the students have made will last for a long time. We thank our Year 13 members and wish them all the best for their future as we look forward to another fun and creative year.

As I reflect on my first year at Rangitoto College, I am truly amazed by the incredible support and warm welcome I’ve received from the entire community. The involvement of volunteers, team managers, and coaches has been inspiring, helping guide our students on their sporting journeys. Whether students aim for the top in their chosen sport or simply enjoy participating socially, the community has consistently stepped up to provide the opportunity and encouragement.
In a school environment, promoting participation, health, and well-being is vital, and I believe enjoyment plays a key role in defining the success of any school sports programme. This year, we’ve made great strides, particularly with the introduction of our Directors of Sport, who have been instrumental in developing students and shaping the philosophy of each programme. Additionally, the use of our new VEO camera has allowed teams to analyse their performances off the field, enhancing learning and development in ways we hadn’t previously experienced.
Our swimming team secured their fifth consecutive top Co-Ed School title at the New Zealand Secondary Schools Swimming Championships, and the team spirit was incredible to witness. Not to mention some excellent individual honours throughout the year. We also saw continued success in table tennis, with the girls team earning a gold medal at Nationals, while badminton took home bronze, and weightlifting added four golds to our growing collection.
While winning medals is always exciting, I believe the true measure of our success lies in the increased number of students participating in sport. We now have over 185 teams and more than 200 coaches involved, all contributing to a positive, engaging experience that will hopefully keep students involved in sports for many years to come. This, for me, is the ultimate success of a school sports programme.
There have been many highlights over the past year. Watching our boys and girls volleyball teams secure victories at the Australian Schools Open events last December was unforgettable. It was followed by the girls winning gold and the boys taking silver at the New Zealand Schools Nationals—an intense and thrilling event that made me extremely proud of everyone involved. I was excited to follow the sailing team who are competing in the Team Racing Interdominions later in the year after an impressive season gaining a silver medal at the National Championships with some outstanding individual performances throughout the year.
Our water polo teams also shone brightly at the Nationals in Wellington with the girls taking a bronze medal and the boys coming fourth. The development of our rugby teams has been equally impressive. A particular success story was our 2nd XV’s ability to field a team every week, which in turn strengthened the 1st XV, leading to a top-four finish in their league and the girls finishing second losing to our neighbours marginally in the final. Meanwhile, the girls hockey team continued to build momentum, ending the season on a high note and coming runners up in their tournament, with the boys team also achieving a dramatic last-second win against Rosmini during winter tournament week to finish off a successful week.
Personally, I’ve witnessed some outstanding moments this year, and many memories will stay with me for a long time. Supporting both Premier football teams was a particular highlight. Seeing the boys promoted to the Auckland League and the girls finishing in the top four was a testament to the hard work of the players and their coaches. It was also great to see the final game of the season for the U16 boys who won their competition on that day. On that note, seeing the basketball Premier Boys miss out in the last seconds of the promotion/relegation game was tough to take but they have bounced back quickly and are in the similar position next year. The girls basketball have had a positive season. After being promoted, this young team finished in the top six of the league and the signs are positive for the future of the basketball programme. Finally, the netball team have had a busy season playing in two competitions and seeing them grow and work hard as a group has been inspiring. The numbers participating in netball are very positive for the future and we look forward to seeing them develop over the coming seasons.
As we look forward to the future, I’m excited to see how we can continue building on this year’s achievements and further develop our sports programmes to ensure every student has the opportunity to thrive.
Lastly, thank you to the Sports Department, Nat Moe, Lisa Wiki, Shannon Hughes, and Brownz Tagaloa for your work and commitment to sport at Rangitoto College.
The Rangitoto College Sport Performance Academy (SPA) has seen another amazing year with the programmes on offer expanding and building on their connection to our wider sporting needs.
As we continue to create more alignment through our Sport Performance Academy with our sporting codes, we appreciate the different needs of individual codes in order to further develop our athlete skill base.
SPA Blue is catered more to those who are focused on their strength and conditioning with the objective of building a happy and healthy relationship with exercise.
Equally important is the relationship between improved athletic performance and injury prevention.
During the year it has been rewarding to see the retention rate of students and to see them flourish within the programme by taking ownership of their own training and decision making.
Within the sports specific module, we have seen an increase in those wanting to further develop their core skill base and to understand the progression of the skill once mastered.
This was evident in our netball SPA as our young netball sisters focused on the skills required for the Rangitoto style of play and the
philosophies behind our netball culture. This was a segue into our pre-season block and trial process which saw many of these young girls make our top competitive Year 9 teams.
Football SPA was condensed down to only one term this year and led by our 1st XI girls football coach. This proved to be invaluable for our junior players, was they gained new insights into gameplay while nailing down the basic fundamentals.
Rugby forged ahead with an U15 Development Boys Squad who went to Wellington to compete in the U15 Hurricanes tournament during winter tournament week. The tournament was an epic week for these young lads who did themselves and us proud.
Talent ID was an approach that some codes took this year, with resource coaches running a series of development sessions for targeted players. These athletes have stood out over the course of their season and thrived in this new opportunity. Providing this extra focus and upskilling has not only improved season play, but has also helped pave a premier pathway for many of our athletes.
We have seen significant progress and progression in our SPA offerings and admire how our students embrace new challenges and continue to push themselves and their peers to improve.
Rangitoto College students continued to impress at this year’s North Harbour Zones held at the Millennium Stadium. The event showcased not only familiar faces but also the athletes whose primary sports lie outside of track and field. Rangitoto had representation across nearly every event, from the 100 m sprints to pole vault and the 3000 m races. No matter where you looked, Rangitoto athletes were running, jumping, and throwing.
The day proved to be a great success for many of the students, with over 20 podium finishes. Standout performances included victories by Kenzie Bowden in the 100 m, Nyla Spencer in the 400m, Mackenzie Guy in the triple jump, Chase Kirkland in the 100 m, Zhan Bowden in both long and triple jumps, and Martin Chemlev in the 800 m. The senior girls 4 x 100 m relay team also clinched the title. A special mention goes to Reid Davis, who dominated the senior boys shot put event with a throw that exceeded second place by over five metres. Many other athletes achieved top eight finishes in various events.
A week later, students travelled to Mt Smart Stadium to compete against Auckland’s top athletes. The busy day saw numerous heats and finals,
with Rangitoto again achieving several podium finishes, particularly in the senior boys field events. Zhan Bowden claimed victories in long jump, high jump, and triple jump, while Reid Davis once again won the shot put by a substantial margin. Nyla Spencer also secured a win in the senior girls 300m hurdles.
Several top athletes were then selected to represent North Harbour at the North Island Champs held a few weeks later. They performed exceptionally well, with Reid Davis winning the North Island title in shot put and Zhan Bowden securing the triple jump title.
We look forward to seeing these talented athletes continue to excel in their future endeavours.
Rangitoto College held its competitive school cross country on 9th May, enjoying great weather and an enthusiastic turnout of 154 students. The age groups set off separately, creating a well-organized and exciting event. Following this, 22 talented students competed in the Auckland Champs at Lloyd Elsmore Park on 22nd May, showcasing their exceptional skills. A big thank you to all the student helpers and staff whose efforts were invaluable in making both events a success. Congratulations to all participants for their awesome performance and we look forward to seeing you all compete again in 2025.
This year, badminton at Rangitoto College showcased the passion and dedication with only our senior students taking part in the North Harbour League this year due to lack of facilities. Our social sessions, drawing over 250 students each week, were a highlight, reflecting a growing interest in the sport and promised a vibrant 2024 season.
Our girls team achieved an impressive third place at the NZSS Badminton Nationals. Competing with pride and representing our college with mana, the team travelled to Porirua and demonstrated exceptional skill and teamwork. The team members— captain Yanxi Liu, Eva Li, Felicia Chen, Clara Lam, Claire Lam, and Chloe Yu—embodied the spirit of Rangitoto College, making us proud with their outstanding performance.
As we look ahead to the 2025 season, we anticipate continued growth in both participation and success, building on the achievements of this year. With the increasing interest and the strength of our teams, the future of badminton at Rangitoto College is exciting.
The 2024 basketball season was filled with both challenges and achievements, as our teams showed remarkable growth, determination, and unity. Despite obstacles like injuries and player shortages, every team displayed resilience and a commitment to sportsmanship.

Girls Junior Basketball Premier team had another very good year in terms of results, player development, and team chemistry. We finished the season with a 16 win, 5 loss record, finishing runners up in the North Harbour U15A Premier grade, 3rd in the Greater Auckland Championship, and runners up in the National Zone 1 winter tournament week. The highlight of the year, however, was the National Junior Zone 1 Championship. The team played well, even though they were understrength, going down to Westlake Girls in the final.
It was an enjoyable season with some big wins and excellent team play. The team had a good mix of Year 9 and 10 students.
Five of the girls made the North Harbour U16’s Rep side, while one of the girls made the WABI U16 team. On top of this, five of the Junior Girls were also selected for the Rangitoto Senior Premier team. A special mention also must go to Sienna Maurice who was selected for the NZ U15 team. Unfortunately for her, she picked up an injury and missed the majority of the year. A special mention here also must go to Rhonda Jackson who was the team manager and helped on the score bench when available.
The future of Rangitoto Girls basketball is looking bright with some young talented, committed, and passionate players coming through. The U15 Premier team is also looking strong for next year, with seven returning players.
Coach: Mr Clinton Buckley
Our Rangitoto College Premier Boys and Girls Basketball Teams had very different journeys in 2024. Our Girls were promoted into the Premier Grade defeating Baradene College in April to move up into the top tier in Auckland, while our Boys were relegated to Senior A on the same night after a heartbreaking loss to Mount Roskill Grammar!
Our Premier Girls, under new Head Coach and Rangitoto College alumni Brooke Blair, assisted by Grace Love, got off to a solid start in the season, winning four of their first seven games at the half-way point, then taking another three wins in the following seven games for a 7-win 7-loss record and 5th placing in the grade. Their seven wins included two over Epsom Girls Grammar, two over Northcote College, one over Mount Albert Grammar and Takapuna Grammar respectively, and a default win over Westlake Girls to round out their record.
With a number of injuries and illnesses among the players throughout the season, and leading into the end of season Zone 1 AA National Qualifiers late August, expectations were still high to secure one of six spots in the Secondary Schools National Tournament played out in early October.
Despite a solid run through pool play and beyond, our girls were only able to play-off for 7th/8th, winning a tight contest over local rivals Northcote College to secure a reserve spot for the National Tournament. A week later, Basketball New Zealand (BBNZ) advised our girls that they had secured the final spot in the tournament!
In their first game at the National Tournament in Palmerston North, the girls encountered eventual (3-time) winners, Westlake Girls High School, and as a rookie team experienced early on the level of play required to compete at the tournament, losing their first fixture. The following five days returned some mixed results, earning a much needed win over Rotorua Girls High School on day three, but other results not going their way as they battled against tough competition (most teams with Regional and New Zealand representatives among them) to finish in 24th position at the end of the tournament.
While we say farewell to Year 13 players Zaara Sain (captain) and Bella Anderson, the core of the team remains largely intact for 2025 and beyond with the current roster made up of primarily Year 10 and 11’s. Among the Year 10’s and 11s are New Zealand Under 15 representatives Sienna Maurice and Maddison Skelton, while most other players in the team are regional top age group representatives with Harbour Basketball.
We wish to give our sincere thanks to coaches Brooke and Grace, and manager Sharmielah Sain (who will leave us too along with daughter, Zaara), for their incredible work in 2024, and look forward to a bright future ahead with our Premier Girls Team!
Our Premier Boys, under new Head Coach, Nathan Hanna, a past New Zealand representative himself, assisted by Greg Brockbank, a current NZ age group coach, worked their way through a strong Senior A season, with a 12-win 2-loss record for second place in the standings going into the semi-final round. In front of a vocal home crowd, our boys defeated a fastfinishing Pakuranga College in the semi-final to secure a berth in the final against unbeaten Dilworth College, the latter taking out the competition in the final a week later. The second place finish in Senior A all but secured a promotion-relegation fixture against Sacred Heart College in April 2025, with the winner of that game moving into the top-tier Premier grade.
The boys set their sights next on the Zone 1 AA National Qualifiers in early September, needing to finish second in their pool to work their way to secure one of the seven qualifying spots available. Unfortunately, losses to Dilworth College and Rosmini College proved costly during the pool rounds, so they were left to play for 9th through 16th place. They eventually ended the tournament in 12th position, out of contention for a qualifying spot, but with lots to build upon as they venture into 2025!
We say farewell to five players from this year’s squad – first-timers Riley Jackman and Jack Lemmon, both of whom have played right throughout their time at Rangitoto College, teo-year Premier players William Cheng and Denham Turley, both key parts of the leadership group, and captain Michael Ropotini, who has been a part of the Premier Boys team since he started in Year 9! Michael was also a camp participant for the New Zealand Junior Tall Blacks in 2024, alongside representing Waitakere West Basketball Inc. (WWABI) in their Under 20’s team. We wish all five the very best for their future pursuits!
A final thanks to our coaches, Nathan and Greg, and assistant Gabe Davidson (himself a Rangitoto College alumni) and manager, Natalie Davidson, for their incredible work in 2024, and look forward to seeing them all again in 2025!
I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the Rangitoto College student-athletes and staff, parents and siblings, and wider community for welcoming me into their basketball programme in 2024! As a newcomer to the school, I was assisted and supported across many areas in year 1, and I am truly grateful to you all! A very special thanks to Brownz Tagaloa, our programmes coordinator and guide, for his incredible work in-front and behind the scenes – our programme would not have survived the year without his drive and patience!

The 2023- 2024 beach season once again provided many success stories for Rangitoto College players. As summer began, our teams competed at the North Harbour Schools competition and Auckland Beach Volleyball Championships, where we became Auckland Champions in five out of six divisions. This was an absolutely amazing feat. In addition, some of our players competed on the senior circuit, gaining experience, honing their skills, and learning from their competitors. At the inter provincial championships our players represented North Harbour where we were successful in gaining one bronze, three silver and one gold. This was a great start to the year.
The Secondary Schools’ Nationals were once again played over Waitangi weekend. This year the weather played havoc and the tournament was reduced to one day’s play. This didn’t stop our team from playing against each other on the court at our accommodation and it was great to watch the older more experienced players coaching the juniors. As always, the positive, supportive culture of our beach volleyball whānau was evident.
On Sunday, the weather improved, with the wind dropping, but still challenging conditions for all players. The teams had to plan how to utilise the wind and ensure they thought tactically about how they played each point. Although at times this was frustrating, all teams played with tenacity and an unwavering enthusiasm to do their best.
Kalea Norton and Devyn Golaboski produced some outstanding play leading to them winning the National title and making Rangitoto College
back-to-back winners. This was an outstanding result. In the Year 11 boys event, Kenai Stevenson and Kyson Norton faced some tough opposition teams, but fought hard to gain the bronze medal. This was well deserved. John Petrucci and Will Schmidt, along with Sienna Hickling-Crane and Molly Caunce gained fourth place in their divisions, leaving all they had on the sand.
In division two senior boys, Josh Perks and James Haslam won silver, gaining invaluable court time and experience to ensure they are ready for the next season.
The exceptional results we continue to gain reflect the coaching that occurs year-round, empowering all players with the skills, tactical knowledge, and inspiration to play to the best of their ability. Thank you so much Johann Timmer, Adam Watson, and Sam Bell who are outstanding role models to our players. Alan Kerr and Sharon Redpath are always behind the scenes, organising, encouraging, and ensuring the entire team positively reflect the values of Rangitoto College.
As in all previous years, the unwavering support from our beach volleyball family inspires our players to always reach for the stars. It is always a joy to watch the group of blue and red move around the beach to support all the teams.
We wish all the Year 13’s leaving school the best for whatever the future brings and thank them for the legacy they leave.
It was great to see so many of our students out on the cricket fields in Term 1 and we look forward to the second half of the season getting underway in Term 4. This year we had three boys teams and two girls teams which gave us a total of 58 players this season. Our Colts 1 boys team have had a good start to their season coming away with some great wins against the likes of Kings, Rosmini, and Selwyn. This put them in an excellent position to finish their season strong in Term 4. Our Colts 2 and Girls Red teams gained invaluable experience over Term 1 coming with some wins. We look forward to seeing these teams continue to build their skills for the rest of the season. A huge thanks to Nathan Banks, Rob McKinnon, Blair Smith, Isaac Bird, Scott Childs, Mark Badland, Mat Fraser, and Paul Connick for all their work with our teams.
The first half of our season has been a real test of character for the boys, as is so often the case in sports. We have remained competitive in many frustrating close games. The season ended on a high by edging out Selwyn College in a close match through an incredible hat trick by Regan Slabbert. We hope to bring this momentum into Term 4 and turn this season around.
Our two senior players, Fynn Greshon and Zachary Robertson, have spearheaded our bowling attack, largely supported by Tyler Beehre and Regan Slabbert. With Max McKinnon cleaning up behind the stumps, we have been able to develop a successful bowling unit.
Backing up the bowlers, Xaver McKinnon has set high fielding standards which has played a major role in the efficiency of our fielding innings.
In terms of batting, our opening pair were able to find their rhythm towards the back end of Term 1. Max McKinnon has been able to anchor the middle order of our batting lineup, consistently posting numerous scores above 50 and setting a good foundation for the tail order to add to. As the Term 4 part of our season approaches, the boys are ready to get stuck in and achieve good results to send our Year 13s out on a high.
The Rangitoto College 1st XI girls justified their placement in the College Sport 1A grade this season. We played against some very strong teams; many of them including Auckland representative players. Rangitoto achieved third place in this grade after a narrow semi-final loss to Macleans and missed the chance to play off for first place. We were privileged to play on the Rangitoto College grass pitch for our home games this year.
The team participated in the Gillette Venus Cup Tournament earlier in the year. This was a valuable opportunity for more cricket against some of Auckland’s best schools and was an opportunity to showcase our individual and team talent. In the last game of this tournament, we defeated the Macleans team we had previously lost to in the 1A semi-final, proving the team weren’t far from making the 1A final and challenging for promotion into the Premier grade.
This year saw the introduction of Baggy Caps for the team which are awarded after the girls have played ten 1st XI games for the school. The girls are also looking forward to wearing a new premier playing uniform for the upcoming 2024/2025 season.
Another first for Rangitoto girls’ cricket is a much-anticipated inaugural preseason cricket tournament in Tauranga in October 2024. This is a fantastic opportunity to play different formats of the game against local Tauranga schools and clubs.
The team are very proud of Isabella McCarthy and Carri Pointer who were selected for the U17 Girls Auckland Academy this season.
ThePegasus Cup at Takapoto Estate on the 18th and 19th of March brought together six skilled riders and their horses, showcasing their talents in show jumping, with heights ranging from 60cm to 90cm. This event, marked by its competitive spirit and camaraderie, saw Taylor Rawbone on Phoenician Fabio, Honey and Trixie Fitt-Allen on My Revelation and Rolling in Red, and Tyra Bickford on Monarch of Silvertrees, all vying for top honours in a thrilling display of horsemanship.
The riders and their families travelled down to Takapoto Estate, arriving safely with their horses in tow, ready to face the day’s events. The Pegasus Cup provided a unique opportunity for these young riders to test their skills in a competitive and safe environment, with each round bringing out the best in both horse and rider.
Taylor, Honey, Trixie, and Tyra displayed remarkable poise and control, tackling each jump with confidence and determination. Their horses, Phoenician Fabio, My Revelation, Rolling in Red, and Monarch of Silvertrees, also rose to the occasion, showing agility and athleticism over the duration of the course.
Beyond the competition, the event fostered a strong sense of teamwork and sportsmanship, with all participants celebrating each other’s successes. The Pegasus Cup continues to be a memorable event for all involved, offering riders a chance to shine in the sport they love. Congratulations to all the riders for their hard work and we look forward to competing in this event in 2025.
From the start of this year, student athlete Yeonsu Na has taken a leading role in establishing a dedicated canoe slalom programme at Rangitoto College. He has been responsible for coaching many of the junior athletes and the interest in this sport is growing at a rapid rate.
The scenic Tarawera River in Kawerau was the backdrop for an electrifying showcase of canoe slalom skills, as it played host to the 2024 New Zealand Secondary School Canoe Slalom competition from March 22 to 26. This event, blending fierce competition with a spirit of camaraderie, highlighted some of NZ’s finest talent in one of the country’s fastest-growing sports.
At this prestigious championship, Rangitoto College brothers Yeonsu and Junsu Na delivered outstanding performances bringing home several medals. Yeonsu captured silver in both the Senior Kayak Men’s and Senior Wildwater Canoeing Men’s events, while Junsu earned a bronze medal in the Intermediate Wildwater Canoeing Men’s event. These impressive achievements underscore the brothers’ talent and dedication to the sport showcasing a remarkable representation of Rangitoto College. We are incredibly proud of you both. Thank you for representing our school with such excellence and pride.
In addition to his local success, Yeonsu Na recently returned from the Asian Canoe Slalom Championships in Pattaya, Thailand where he represented Korea and secured a bronze medal in the Junior K1 Men’s event. This accomplishment further attests to his exceptional skill and commitment to the sport.
Please get in contact with the Sports Department if you are interested in joining this rapid growing sport.
Modern Olympic fencing is a fast-paced, technical game that demands participants to be both fit and strategically minded. This modern sport can trace its roots to the historical practice of duelling.
This year the Rangitoto College Fencing Club has been hard at work, running on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and extended training sessions for two hours. Students learn the art of fencing with epee, one of fencing’s main disciplines.
2024 introduced many new students to the sport, with beginner classes running through Term 1. Interested students have also had the opportunity to take part in various specialised classes, including equipment repair, refereeing, and modern pentathlon. Competitively minded fencers have taken the opportunity to attend training camps and competitions throughout Auckland.
Rangitoto College has also had the privilege of hosting its first fencing tournament in 20 years, when fencers from seven schools attended the Tuatahi Intermediate Tournament in June.
Special mention to Jenya Abramova, who competed at the Junior and Cadet Fencing Commonwealth Games and received the bronze medal. Jenya is currently ranked 1st in New Zealand in the Women’s Epee Cadets Fencing Category.
The Rangitoto College Fencing Club includes a broad range of casual and competitive students with a supportive coaching team, and we are excited about the many events ahead. We look forward to further growth and success in 2025.
The Rangitoto College Golf Team has a fantastic group of younger players coming through as well as some seniors who are developing into outstanding golfers. The team had some strong results against local opposition in the North Harbour interschool competition. Recent performances in the North Harbour School Teams event and the school’s Strokeplay events have indicated we have a team that is going to be incredibly competitive in 2025. Juwon Kim, our number one player, has had success outside of the college in a number of local, regional, and national tournaments this year. Well done to all of those involved and a big thank you to the parents of the players who have helped this year. The 2024 squad is: Juwon Kim, Oliver Kiing, Nikkie Liu, Eva Li, Yoon-Sang Eom, Kate Park, Aubrey Yu, Peter Zhou, and Thomas Byun.

Football continues to grow at Rangitoto College with our participation numbers increasing, a newly appointed Director of Football Mingi So, and teams reaching new heights. This year we had 17 teams in total who competed well across their grades. Due to our 1XI Boys being promoted into the premier division, our 2XI Boys stepped up into the Senior A reserve grade. They competed well against some tough competition and secured some fantastic wins against strong football schools. On the girls side our Junior Premier Girls battled hard in the competitive APC Junior A division. On the boys side a key highlight of the season was our 11A Boys who clinched their grade title with an exhilarating win over Auckland Grammar. With passionate people including coaches, student coaches, team managers, referees, and supporters cheering from the sidelines, Rangitoto College’s football community is stronger than ever. Thank you to all who are involved in getting our teams on the field.
The1st XI Boys have achieved a successful season this year under our new coach Milan Elie.
During the preseason, we had an important goal to train toward, with the promotion game coming up against Auckland Grammar. The team went on to play the promotion game without losing a single match.
In the promotion game, we won 3-2 on aggregate. This victory meant we were promoted to the Premier Division for the first time in a decade.
During the regular season, it took a while for us to settle into the Premier Division. By the end of the season, we achieved results against well-known strong schools, beating Sacred Heart College and drawing with Saint Kentigern College.
We also participated in the NZSS National Premier Boys tournament in Auckland, where we faced tough competition. After a series of challenging matches, we finished 19th out of 32 teams. Many of our victories came in nail-biting penalty shootouts, showcasing our determination and resilience under pressure.
Even as recent newcomers to the Premier grade, the team showed great resilience, managing to fight back in multiple games to secure results. As the captain of this team, it was an absolute honour to lead them throughout the season. This team has a bright future ahead next year.
I would also like to say a special thank you to Milan for being an amazing coach.
-Kai Nishida (1XI Boys captain)
Rangitoto’s 1st XI Premier Girls Football team have had an amazing season under their new coach Mauri Wasi. Having lost some valuable Year 13 players from the 2023 lineup, the team was off to a dubious start to the season. However, every single player stepped up to the plate and demonstrated excellence and pride in their craft. Having finished one point off of gaining a spot on the Girls Auckland Premier League podium, the girls set their sights on beating this placing and were successful as they gained a third place finish in the league’s Knock Out Cup.
Heading off to Nationals in Nelson, the Rangi Rhinos had high hopes which would unfortunately not be met. Finishing second in their group, our squad would meet Mount Albert Grammar in a tense round of 16 games that would end in defeat by means of penalties. Despite this, the girls battled it out and would finish 13th—though they didn’t take away a medal, they gained an invaluable experience full of challenge, trust, and joy.
This year, the Rangitoto College 1st XI Girls squad has been more of a family than a team and have learnt many valuable lessons in resilience, hard work, and kotahitanga. Though we may say goodbye to a collection of team pillars, the potential of the players within this team is immense, and the future inevitably holds success and enjoyment.
-Mackenzie Longmuir (1XI Girls captain)
The 2024 hockey season was a journey of growth, determination, and team spirit. From the outset, the talent within our teams was evident, and their positive attitude and commitment at training were remarkable. Week by week, the players improved, showing resilience, and supporting each other both on and off the field.
A standout moment of the season was when the Black Sticks Women’s team visited to run a skills session with a few of our girls teams. It was an incredible opportunity to train alongside some of the nation’s top hockey athletes, and our girls felt truly fortunate to learn from them.
Our teams enjoyed strong starts to their seasons, with several going undefeated in the early rounds. Despite facing more challenging opposition in the later stages, both our Junior Premier Girls and 2nd XI Girls had faced some formidable 1st XI teams, they remained competitive
and finished on a high. They most certainly held their own against older and tougher teams, showcasing their potential for future success. The 1st XI Girls team competing in the Greater Auckland Premier League showed incredible grit and team culture and finished runner-up for the Marie Fry Trophy during Winter Tournament Week.
A season full of highs and some challenges, including injuries and playing with limited numbers, saw the girls deliver outstanding performances. A highlight was the comprehensive 6-0 win over Takapuna Grammar, where the team dominated with an exciting, high-intensity style of play.
Overall, the season reflected tremendous personal growth, resilience, and pride in representing Rangitoto College. With many players set to return next year, there is plenty of excitement and potential for the seasons ahead.
Wishing our Year 13s (Ben Logan, Connor Lithgow, Chelsea Lampard, Drew Briggs, Ema Camus Rogers, Finley Pollitt, Holly Karanthanasis, Jaimie Miller, Jordan Hawkes, Kayleigh Campbell, Nic Dean, Reese Donald, and Tiano Filmalter) all the very best as you embark on the next chapter of your hockey journey!
As we turn the pages of this calendar year and reflect on the incredible journey of the 2024 school hockey teams, we can’t help but be overwhelmed with gratitude for the guidance, support, and unwavering commitment that our coaches and managers have sacrificed.
This year was not just about winning or losing; it was about the invaluable lessons learned, the camaraderie formed, and the unforgettable memories created. The turf and the dugouts became a place of growth, resilience, and inspiration, all thanks to the dedication of our coaches and managers.
Charmeyne McCollin our TIC, thank you so much for your wisdom, support, and leadership in this space.
Regan Bain, Deb Briggs, Jan Peterson, Michael Penney, Daniel Snyman, Scott Woolf, Jeremy Carroll, Jo Hollis, Jessica Whitfield, Danielle Harrison, Amy Colquhoun, and Summer Bailey, parents, caregivers, families, friends, and supporters – thank you all for an amazing 2024. Can’t wait to see what lies ahead.
This year has been nothing short of spectacular for our school’s volleyball teams, whose remarkable performances have set new benchmarks in high school volleyball in both NZ and Australia. From back-to-back national titles to regional championships and international triumphs, our volleyball players have showcased exceptional talent and dedication that deserves to be celebrated.
Our Premier Girls Volleyball Team has experienced a season of unmatched success, solidifying their status as the top team in the country. This year, they not only won every single match they played but also achieved the prestigious titles of New Zealand Champions, Auckland Champions, and North Harbour Champions. Their excellence on the court was highlighted by their impressive back-to-back national titles, a testament to their consistency and skill.
The Premier Boys Volleyball Team also had a year filled with remarkable accomplishments. Their hard work and determination saw them secure second place at the New Zealand Nationals, a commendable achievement that highlights their competitive spirit and skill. Additionally, they clinched the Auckland and North Harbour Championship titles, proving their prowess in regional competitions.
Cuba Rihari, the captain of the Premier Boys, has been a cornerstone of the team’s success. His leadership on and off the court has been exemplary, inspiring his teammates and contributing significantly to their achievements. The teamwork and perseverance, exhibited by the entire boys team, have been key factors in their impressive season.
The Junior Girls Volleyball Team has also made history this year. For the first time, they won the North Island’s Championship, a remarkable feat that reflects their growth and potential. This victory marks a new chapter for the junior team and sets a positive trajectory for future seasons.
The team’s captain, Kalea Norton, has been instrumental in their success. Her stellar performance earned her the title of MVP at the national championships. Kalea’s talents extend beyond school volleyball; she is also the NZ Secondary Schools Beach Champion and a key member of the NZ Open Women’s Team. Her leadership and skill have been pivotal in guiding the team to victory. Co-captain Tiana Tuivasa has also played a crucial role, demonstrating outstanding sportsmanship and commitment throughout the season.
Their achievements didn’t end domestically. Both the Premier Girls and Boys teams made waves internationally by winning the Australian Nationals at the end of 2023. This victory, on a global stage, underscores their dominance and sets a high standard for future teams.
None of these achievements would have been possible without the unwavering support and guidance of our dedicated coaches and managers. A heartfelt thank you goes to coaches Adam Watson, Johann Timmer, Sam Bell, and Aoife King for their invaluable contributions. Their expertise, encouragement, and strategic guidance have been instrumental in shaping the teams’ successes.
Long-serving Premier Managers, Jamie Sowter and Josh Bullen, also deserve special recognition. Their behind-the-scenes work, organisation, and support have been crucial in ensuring that the teams function smoothly and perform at their best.

The dedication of our players, captains, coaches, and managers has set a high standard for excellence and sportsmanship. With such a solid foundation, there is no doubt that our teams will continue to achieve immense success in the coming years.

Rangitoto College entered a small, but determined, team of six cyclists into the Auckland School’s Mountain Biking Series. This series, consisting of five races at Hunua Regional Park, Tōtara Park, Waitawa Regional Park, and Riverhead, showcased some of the region’s most beautiful and scenic locations. The courses were thoughtfully designed and marked out to accommodate a wide range of skill levels, experiences, and riding abilities. We are immensely grateful to our dedicated riders who gave their all on the challenging trails, as well as to the supportive parents who ensured their children were at the venues bright and early on Sundays. They also contributed their time as course marshals. Looking ahead, Rangitoto College is excited to continue growing our mountain biking team and to encourage more students to experience the thrill and adventure of hitting the trails.
We also had two students, Connor Lloyd-Read and Tyler Wright, who travelled to Rotorua to compete in the North Island Mountain Biking Championships. It was fantastic to see our students take part and achieve commendable results.
A huge thank you goes to Robyn Wood for all her support of our students this year in her role as Teacher in Charge.
This year, Rangitoto College had 33 students competing across multiple events in orienteering. This included the Sprint series, Rogaine Championships, Eden Park Sprint, Relay Championships, and the North Island Secondary School competitions. We came away with some commendable results, including multiple students qualifying for the Auckland Sprint Series Championships and the North Island Secondary School Championships. Orienteering was held at schools, forests, parks, and farms this season. It’s a great way to exercise while exploring a cool environment. Some of our team got muddy and wet but all came back happy and accomplished after a fun adventure. A big thank you to all the parents who stepped in to help transport and supervise these events.
We’d love for more students to get involved and there is absolutely no experience required. Sign up, have a go, and be part of some great events. We look forward to getting underway in Term 1, 2025 for some beginner events at nearby schools.
– Kate and Anna Blackett
Rangitoto College Run Club continues to grow from strength to strength, welcoming runners from all year groups and abilities. The regular sessions have seen a range of students looking to extend and challenge their abilities. Running at their own pace, under guidance and encouragement to do the best that they can, ‘run for fun’ is a theme regularly repeated and heard.
Group training runs have taken place after school each term with a different focus and plan each time. Poor weather has seen the group hitting the treadmills and other equipment in the Fitness Centre at times. Prior to the refurbishment programme, the Millennium Track was visited for some short, sharp interval sessions. Terms 3 and 4 saw students preparing for the athletic season and local community run/walk events like parkrun.
Run Club is excited to keep building its’ participation numbers and welcomes students of all abilities to enjoy group running. Come along—we look forward to seeing you.
This year was another record breaker for Rangitoto College Netball with 32 teams playing across Year 9 and Open College. With that number comes some challenges that Nataleigh Moe, the Netball Coordinator, and I had to work through. One of those challenges was finding coaches and managers willing to volunteer their time to ensure each team was supported throughout the season. I’d like to thank our student coaches who have managed to coach their teams on top of their demanding school schedules and our number of parent and staff coaches and managers giving up their time and wisdom. Overall, the season came to an end with good results across the board and some stand out volunteers that helped us along the way. The jewel in our crown this year has been the umpiring programme run by Rangitoto Alumni, Caitlin and Ashley Edwards, assisted by their mum Lisa Edwards. The programme has continued to grow with over 40 umpires. They have been able to assist beyond our Rangitoto College teams as well as helping our umpires through their qualifications with admirable speed. I’m excited to see what is in store for Rangitoto Netball in 2025.
Chelsea Collard – Teacher in Charge of Netball
In order for our netball teams to take to the court and play, Rangitoto College must provide umpires for each of our games, and with 33 playing teams that is no easy task. We had 21 new umpires this season who picked up a whistle and bravely decided to give umpiring a go. The buddy training that we have provided for the past couple of years is unlike anything run at any other school playing at NNH, and it has created a strong squad of highly qualified umpires who now also support the games of four other high schools and several intermediate schools. Congratulations to all our umpires who gained new qualifications this year. Through hard work, our umpires passed a total of 48 umpire qualifications this season, with one of our students passing their Netball NZ Zone Theory, and two gaining their Netball NZ Zone Award.
Student umpire Emma Edwards was appointed to officiate at the U16s netball tournament in New Plymouth this year with our co-ordinator Ashley, and Caitlin was appointed to the U18s tournament in Dunedin. We had a record number of nine student umpires officiating at UNISS which was held this year at Waitakere Netball (Emma Edwards, Emma Mackrell, Keira Webster, Luca Rowbotham, Ellie Rowbotham, Teagan Russell, Anja Breytenbach, Jessica Mackrell, and Marishelle Van Staden) travelling with our Rangitoto College umpire co-ordinators Caitlin and Ashley Edwards. This is an amazing opportunity to receive coaching from high-level NZ umpires from around the North Island during the tournaments and we are proud of Emma Mackrell and Keira Webster who gained their Netball NZ Zone Awards at UNISS. Congratulations also to Emma Edwards for being awarded the Auckland College Sport Aktive Student Official of the Year at the end of 2023, and for receiving the NNH Presidents Cup in 2024 for the second year in a row for being the top collegiate umpire at Netball North Harbour.
Caitlin and Ashley Edwards - Netball Umpire Co-Ordinators
This year saw a mammoth trial effort with close to 350 athletes trialling. This resulted in 12 Year 9 teams and 22 Open College teams—The biggest we have been for a number of years.
Our SPA Netball programme saw considerable growth, as did our umpiring programme and student coach cohort. Parent managers were also invaluable in allowing us to take to the court. Our Premier team continued their journey of exposure to different styles of netball and were competitive at Netball North Harbour and Netball Waitakere. Our sisterhood has been shown by supporting other teams by combining team trainings and offering our knowledge. Encouraging teams on game day and always willing to lend players to teams who need them, holding umbrellas over our scorers in the rain, and ensuring the lolly containers are full. It has been a wonderful year of growth with success both on and off the court for our Rangitoto College whānau and it has been pleasing to see many opportunities that have been embraced.
Thank you to Mitre 10 Mega Albany and Kukri for your continued support of our Premier Netball Team.
Congratulations to those who received special acknowledgements at our netball prizegiving.
We are looking forward to seeing you courtside in 2025.

The 2024 rugby season at Rangitoto College was an unforgettable one, filled with both exhilarating victories and hard-fought battles across all levels. Our teams showcased not just skill and determination but also a deep sense of camaraderie and sportsmanship that truly embodied the spirit of Rangitoto College. This season, Rangitoto College fielded seven teams: 1st XV, 2nd XV, Youth 16s, Youth 15s, Youth 14s, Premier Girls, and U15 Girls. Each team brought a unique energy and passion to the game, contributing to an overall highly successful season.
Rangitoto College’s 1st XV rugby team has capped off an outstanding season with a remarkable top four finish, showcasing their resilience and determination throughout the year. Under the capable leadership of captain Luke Gillespie, the team demonstrated exceptional growth and enthusiasm both on and off the field.
Under the expert guidance of coaches Boyd Gillespie, Wade Kirkland, and Brent Bibbie, whose strategic vision and player development skills were invaluable, the team demonstrated remarkable growth, continuous improvement and adaptability, enabling the players to overcome challenges and perform at their best in crucial matches.
Their commitment to fostering a great team culture laid the foundation for the team’s achievements. The unwavering support of Cherie Bibbie, Steve Mann, and Kate Gale in management roles played a crucial role in the team’s journey, ensuring the players had everything they needed to perform at their best.
Throughout the season, the Rangitoto College 1st XV displayed remarkable resilience in the face of tough opposition. Their growth as individual players and as a cohesive unit was evident in each match, with the team’s determination shining through in crucial moments. The team’s enthusiasm was infectious, inspiring not only their fellow students but the entire school community. This exceptional season will undoubtedly serve as a springboard for future success in Rangitoto College’s rugby programme.
The Youth 16s team had a season to remember, securing a welldeserved third-place finish after a strong semi-final appearance. Reaching the semi-finals demonstrated the team’s growth and skill, with every game being a hard-fought contest. Their ability to work as a cohesive unit was on full display, and their third-place finish is a reflection of their consistent hard work and the excellent guidance of their coaches. The future looks promising for these young athletes as they continue to develop and build on this year’s accomplishments.
The Youth 15s team experienced the highs and lows of competitive rugby this season. Their path to the finals was paved with determination and flair, as they put in dominating performances to secure their spot in the championship game. In the final, they faced a formidable opponent in Rosmini College. Despite their tremendous effort and playing with heart until the very end, the Youth 15s lost to Rosmini. Although the final result was not in their favour, the experience gained and the way they conducted themselves throughout the season speaks volumes about their potential. These young players have a bright future ahead.
The Premier Girls’ team continued to build on their impressive record, making it all the way to the finals. This was a season filled with determination, skill, and an indomitable will to succeed. The team’s teamwork, backed by individual brilliance, saw them reach the finals where they faced Westlake Girls in a highly anticipated showdown. Although the Premier Girls fought valiantly, they fell just short in the final. Nonetheless, the journey to the final is a huge achievement and a testament to the progress women’s rugby is making at Rangitoto College. Their season was filled with outstanding performances, and the entire team can hold their heads high, knowing they left everything on the field.
The U15 Girls team had a season of development and growth. Though the results may not have always gone their way, the improvement in their skills and teamwork was evident with each game. The U15 Girls worked hard throughout the season, learning the fundamentals of the game, and growing in confidence. With more experience under their belts, this young team is sure to come back stronger next season. Their dedication and willingness to learn are commendable, and they are bound to be future stars of Rangitoto College rugby.
The Youth 14s had an encouraging season as they began their journey in competitive rugby. This team showed tremendous potential and enthusiasm throughout their matches. While the season had its share of challenges, the Youth 14s grew stronger as a unit with each game, gaining valuable experience that will be crucial as they continue to develop. Their passion for the sport is evident, and they are on the path to becoming a formidable team in the coming years.
The 2nd XV had a challenging but rewarding season. Despite the ups and downs, the team displayed moments of brilliance and growth, learning from every match they played. The commitment shown by this team to improve and support each other on and off the field was remarkable. With several key players returning next year, the 2nd XV has laid a solid foundation for future success.
The success and progress of this rugby season would not have been possible without the incredible dedication of the coaches and managers. Their guidance, strategic insights, and tireless efforts have been the backbone of our team’s achievements. They have fostered an environment where players could thrive, grow, and excel, and for that, we are deeply grateful.
As we close the chapter on the 2024 rugby season, we can look back with pride at the accomplishments of all our teams. This year has laid the groundwork for even greater success in the future. The experiences, lessons, and memories created this season will undoubtedly inspire and motivate our athletes as they continue to represent Rangitoto College with honour and passion.
We look forward to what next year brings, confident that Rangitoto College rugby is in a strong position to achieve even more success. Well done to all players, coaches, and supporters for making this season one to remember!
Rangitoto College’s Premier Sailing Team continued with superb team sailing form this year and there were a host of individual highlights at National and World Championship level. Highlights were Rangitoto College’s silver medal at Team Sailing New Zealand championships and bronze medal at Inter Dominions Team Sailing Championships. Joe Leith and Josh Ferrissey winning the bronze medal at the Open Age World Championships in the 420 class (as 16 year olds) was a truly outstanding result.
This regatta is for all colleges North of the Harbour Bridge and was held at Parua Bay, Whangarei. The Rangitoto College Sailing Team dominated the regatta from start to finish with 22 straight wins to retain their title. The team was captained by Joe Leith with Josh Ferrissey, Louie Poletti, Edward Caisley, Teyha Harris, Gemma Hebberd, and Jess Bettany (Arran Begic was sick). This regatta is a seeding regatta for Nationals and ensured Rangitoto College started in the Gold Fleet.
The Nationals were held in the first week of the April school holidays in New Plymouth. Starting in the Gold Fleet with 34 colleges from around New Zealand competing, Rangitoto College, as always, was competing against the top all boys schools for the nationals title. Our team, captained by Joe Leith with Josh Ferrissey, Arran Begic, Tehya Harris, Louie Poletti, Gemma Hebberd, Edward Caisley, and Jess Bettany, had some epic battles against the other top schools, Christs College, Auckland Grammar School, St Kentigerns, and Westlake Boys School.
In a variety of conditions, our co-ed team proved to be one of the fastest teams on the water, and after some 150 races over the week it came down to just two races that saw Rangitoto College finish runners up for the second year in a row, with Auckland Grammar first. As a top three school in the country, this meant Rangitoto College was selected to represent New Zealand in the Inter Dominion Championship where the top three Kiwi and top three Aussie schools compete.
Rangitoto College raced superbly to finish 3rd at the prestigious Inter Dominion Championship held at the Royal Akarana Yacht Club, beating all the Australian teams. Joe Leith with Josh Ferrissey, Arran Begic, Tehya Harris, Louie Poletti, Gemma Hebberd and Edward Caisley did our school proud. New Zealand won the Inter Dominion trophy. Rangitoto College sailors also won a large number of Regional, National, International, Youth Worlds, and Open World titles and podiums in 2024:
• Joe Leith and Josh Ferrissey; Peter Blake Regatta 420 champions, Auckland 420 champions, Auckland Anniversary Regatta 420 champions, North Island 420 champions

We would like to thank our premier sailing team coach and manager Mr Scott Leith for his dedication, skills, and efforts. Thank you to Mr Browns Tagaloa, Mr Simon Sinclair, Mr Peter Harwood, Mr Don Hastie, Mr Patrick Gale, and Rangitoto College for their enthusiasm and support of Rangitoto sailing.
This year we entered the two One Day Tournaments (ODT) to represent Rangitoto in squash. In a strong showing for the first outing of the year, our boys team secured an impressive second place in the ODT 1 event. This was a fantastic result for the boys who were brought together for the first time. Building on this momentum, we entered two teams in the ODT 2 event, aiming to leverage our previous success. Each player brought their best to the court, contributing to a competitive and spirited atmosphere. The ODT 2 tournament proved to be a valuable experience, with both teams coming away with some good results. We hope to see the squash numbers increase so we can get more students on the court. A big thanks goes to the group for their commitment to the game, and parents for their ongoing support.
The Rangi Surf Team—a crew of about ten keen surfers—had an epic year in 2024! First up in March was the NZ School Surfing Festival at Maukatia Bay, a challenging two-day relay event where each surfer had only ten minutes in the water before handing over to their teammate. Then, midyear, we had a number of surfers compete in the Auckland Scholastic Surfing trials, with Luca O’Brien lucky enough to qualify for and go on to train in the U14 Squad. The highlight of the year was the Raglan Surf Academy School Champs in August. It was an an epic two days of competing both as individuals and a team in the epic waves of Raglan, with some great performances by all. A huge thanks to Tom Hanover and Lisa Wiki for supporting us to have such a fun year!
Rangitoto College swimmers have made a splash this year, showcasing their prowess both locally and on the national stage with remarkable achievements.
On May 17th, the Auckland Champion of Champions swimming competition witnessed Rangitoto College’s swimmers emerging as a dominant force. Their journey to this event began with standout performances at the North Harbour Zones, where they excelled in individual races and delivered thrilling relays, earning their spots at the Auckland competition.
The team’s dedication is evident in their gruelling training regime, which includes nearly 18 hours of practice each week, often starting with early morning sessions. Their commitment paid off spectacularly at the Auckland competition, where they secured a remarkable 17 medals, cementing their reputation for excellence.
The success continued in July, from the 25th - 28th when 45 Rangitoto swimmers took to the pool at the New Zealand Secondary School Championships in Auckland. Over four action-packed days and six
intense sessions, the team not only captured the titles of Top Overall Co-Educational School and Top Girls Relay School but also demonstrated impressive individual performances.
Despite swimming often being seen as an individual sport, Rangitoto College swimmers displayed their teamwork and tenacity, competing in multiple races, backing up their individual performances with relay events, and pushing themselves to the limit in the finals. Their efforts resulted in an impressive haul of 10 gold, 16 silver, and 15 bronze medals. Individually, Brendan Visser, Monique Wieruszowski, Lani Kim, and Helena Yule each earned National titles.
The team’s success was also due to the unwavering support of parent volunteers, with a special mention to Adrienne Carter, whose dedication played a crucial role in ensuring the team’s smooth and memorable experience.
Rangitoto College’s swimmers have truly proven their mettle, making waves and setting a high standard for excellence in the pool.
Rangitoto College’s table tennis programme achieved remarkable success this year, particularly with the emergence of strong talent in our junior girls division. Our Year 9 students, Yelena Yi and Anya Chen, dominated the NZSS Table Tennis Nationals, capturing the Girls Team event title for 2024. Their outstanding performances didn’t stop there— Anya Chen secured the gold medal in the U15 Girls category, while Yelena Yi proudly claimed the silver. These accomplishments highlight the incredible potential and skill within our junior ranks, setting a promising foundation for the future of table tennis at our school.
Our boys team also delivered an impressive performance on the national stage. Joshua Li, Ben Xiong, and Jiming Yang placed among the top four teams in the country, demonstrating their commitment and talent in the sport. Their achievement underscores the depth of skill and determination within our table tennis programme, and they have set a high standard for their peers.
This year has been a testament to the dedication and hard work of our students, coaches, and support staff. The success of our junior girls and the strong showing by our boys team at the nationals reflect the growing strength of table tennis at Rangitoto College. We are incredibly proud of these young athletes and look forward to seeing how they will continue to develop and excel in the years to come.
As we look to 2025, we are excited about the future of table tennis at Rangitoto College, confident that this year’s achievements will inspire even greater participation and success.
Whatan incredible day, and an amazing opportunity for our junior tag whānau to showcase their skills, at the Tag Central-Northwestern Zones! We entered two competitive teams and one social team, and all three represented the school with pride, mana, and respect. The day was a mix of rain, sunshine, sprinklers, mud, laughter, and games played in great spirit against worthy opponents.
The junior girls Red team put on an outstanding performance, facing tough competition in pool play against the Grammars—Mt Albert and Auckland Girls. Special mentions go to Isla Laursen and NZ U18 girls representatives Luca Aporo and Rebecca Robertson for their stellar and consistent efforts throughout the day.
In the boys team, captain Chase Hawkins led the way on the field, with seasoned senior student Chase Kirkland stepping in as coach in Wade’s absence. After a solid round-robin performance, the boys needed a win in their final game to qualify for Auckland Champs. Facing a strong Mt Albert Grammar team, they found themselves down 5-1 at halftime. With relentless defence by Hunter Robertson, Cooper Lea’aetoa, and Nate Kirkland, and the agility of Haelo Smart, the team managed a thrilling comeback. Knox Tagaloa scored the winning try just as the final hooter sounded, clinching a 6-5 victory!
A huge thank you to Winiata, Melissa, Kaine, Mickle, Wade, Kirsty, Mr Ben Smith, and Brownz for creating a strong whanaungatanga atmosphere throughout the day. Your support and efforts are greatly appreciated. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at the Auckland Champs in early December.
Special shout-out as well to senior students Ryen Anderson and Paris Robertson, who are also members of the NZ U18 girls tag team.
At the time of publication, only our senior girls touch team has competed this year, taking part in the North Harbour Senior Touch Zones, while our junior team is set to compete later in Term 4. Coached by Director of Rugby, Kaine Robertson, the senior girls delivered a stellar season, playing eight games, scoring an impressive 71 tries, and conceding only five.
Looking ahead, College Sport is considering reformatting the touch competition for 2025, and there is no doubt our girls will earn a spot in the premier grade, where they will face some of Auckland’s top schools.
The Rangitoto College tennis programme once again included tennis teams and social tennis sessions. We had 60 students participate in Term 1 which was highlighted by our boys and girls competitive teams.
The Rangitoto College boys team competed in the Premier grade for the College Sport Auckland competition once again this year. This brings the top schoolboys in the Auckland area together with a high level of competition on show. The team of five, showcased exceptional skill throughout the season winning some tightly contested matches. Despite facing tough opponents, the effort to come away with some individual match wins reflects the hard work of these players. The Auckland Champion of Champions came around and our team of players came away with some outstanding results; Chan Min won the Senior Boys division, Santiago Gonzalez won the Intermediate Boys division, and Matthew Yang made it through to the semi-finals for the Intermediate Boys.
The Senior Girls team was a new group of players brought together this year. They enjoyed a great season, fighting hard to come away with some strong wins across the board and securing 4th place in their grade. Thank you to Tracey Lee for managing this team.
Special thanks to Ethan Symons for representing Rangitoto College as an official every week.
We’re excited to expand Rangitoto College’s touch programme, starting with our juniors in Term 4 of 2024 and building more senior teams in Term 1 of 2025. This marks the beginning of a long-term plan to grow and develop the sport at the school.
A special mention also to our Senior Mixed team who represented Rangitoto College at last year’s NZSS Touch Nationals. The event provided an invaluable experience for our athletes, and we’re excited about the prospect of fielding another competitive team at the end of this year.
Rangitoto has had a fantastic year with a record number of lifters and with the most female students joining.
We had a very successful Secondary School Nationals with all athletes winning gold.
Congratulations to:
• Alice Kudiyarova gold U15 55 kg female class
• Serena Park gold O15 59kg female class
• Namu Gusscott gold O15 81kg male class
• Finn McLuckie gold U15 74kg male class
This is our 10th year representing the school at the Secondary School Nationals with each year producing excellent results.
2024 was another incredibly successful year for the Premier Girls Water Polo team at Rangitoto College. After trials and training in Term 4, we kicked off the season with the Delfina tournament at St. Cuthbert’s over Auckland Anniversary weekend.
Then the hard work began: three training sessions a week, plus gym and swimming sessions, with games on Friday and Sunday nights in the College Sport league. We placed fourth in both the College Sports league and the North Island Secondary Schools, losing to Dio on both occasions. However, we peaked at Nationals in Wellington, finally defeating Dio to take home the bronze medal!
We sadly said goodbye to four very special Year 13 players: Akiera Walsh, Mackenzie Rogers, Eloise Raper, and Gabrielle Doyle. We will miss you all so much!
A huge thanks to our amazing coaches, Chelsea Geary and Ava Cooper, as well as the best manager we could ask for, Angela O’Brien.
ThePremier Boys Water Polo team had another big year achieving some great results. Coming off the Trans-Tasman tournament in December they launched into the 2024 season before the school year got underway.
The Premier grade was strong this year with many close results across the board. The team played a fantastic final game to win the bronze by penalty shootout in the Auckland League. They then competed in the North Island Secondary Schools tournament, where we secured fifth place with Rosmini. Going into Nationals the team worked hard, wanting to achieve a good result for the Year 13’s. Playing well throughout the tournament saw them make the semifinals where they went down to eventual winners Tauranga Boys 6-8. In the bronze medal match it was a tight game against Hamilton Boys unfortunately going down finishing in fourth place.
This year, we bid farewell to our dedicated Year 13 players: Ben Rapley, Hamish Fleming, Ted Salmon, Denham Turley, and Jack Roberts. Your contributions to the team will be greatly missed!
A heartfelt thank you goes out to our outstanding coaches, Jake and Logan, whose guidance and support were invaluable. We’d also like to extend our gratitude and say goodbye to our super manager, Felicity Roberts. We look forward to seeing what 2025 brings.
This year was a great success for our Senior Boys where we were able to field two additional teams alongside the Premier team. Our Senior B Boys had a great season finishing third in Auckland League in the Senior B grade. This team was coached by Shannon Hughes and managed by Sarah Sutherland.
Our Senior A Boys had a fantastic season with coaches Tom Armes and Boston Frost. Many dominant performances saw them win the Auckland League Senior B grade. The boys went on to compete at both North Islands and Nationals. Heading into North Islands they knew they would have some tough games as they were playing in Division 1 against the Premier teams. The boys played well throughout and came away with some good learnings and a good win against Western Springs. They travelled down to Hamilton for Division 2 Nationals and played some fantastic water polo to finish second in their pool. Battling hard they played fantastically well to finish in the top 6. Big thanks go to team manager Lisa Scott and Nationals managers Nic and Brad Ward Able.
Our Senior A girls had an enjoyable season under coach Rachael Roset. The team came away as a winner in their Auckland League grade to kick off their season. Just as the Senior A Boys did, they then went on to compete at North Islands and Nationals. Playing in Division 2, the girls had some great wins and had some unlucky losses throughout both tournaments. They gained great experience throughout the season which is a promising sign for 2025. Big thanks go to their team managers Fiona Somerville and Heather Mackenzie who gave up their time to look after these girls.
The Junior Water Polo is off to a great start with three boys teams and two girls teams entered in the North Harbour League. These are great numbers as water polo continues to grow in popularity. The teams are training hard getting ready for a big Term 4 where some will continue in the North Harbour competition, and some get underway in the Auckland League. However, the big event of the year for Junior Water Polo, which takes place in November, is the North Island Cup where some of our teams will compete. A big thank you goes to our coaches and managers for all your work throughout the season.
The 2024 Arts Awards evening was a red-hot celebration of all things theatre - red curtains, red sequins, red lighting, and red roses thrown on stage – wrapped up perfectly by our closing item The Show Must Go On. 190 students were awarded for their service, contribution, and achievement in the co-curricular arts at Rangitoto College. It is always a privilege to acknowledge the character, energy, and spirit these students bring to our school community, and to recognise the generosity and talent of the staff who facilitate and support the many facets of our cocurricular Arts programmes.

Panorama would not be possible without the generous assistance of many Rangitoto College staff and students who contributed to the yearbook by providing artwork, writing articles, taking photos, and assisting with proofreading. Particular thanks go to the following people:
Christine Parkinson (Head of the English Department) for judging the Creative Writing competition.
Katie Poynter (Assistant Head of the Art Department) for judging the Painting competition.
Paul Stevens (Head of the Art Department) for judging the Photography competition.
Emma Anthony, Phoenix Bright-Young, and Amy Tran for their general assistance.
Aria Brighton-Mills, Claire McKay, Peter Harwood, Ye Sul Kim, and Carmelita Maletino for assisting with proofreading.
Our sincere thanks also go to Rangitoto College’s student photographers, led by Amba Whiting who have dedicated their time to taking photographs at events throughout the year. Many of their photographs have been used in this yearbook.
