VISIT OF THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL

Aranui High was delighted to host their Excellencies the Governor-General and Lady Satyanand on Wednesday 10th. And what a momentous day it was! Despite the poor weather our school hall was packed with visitors, local body representatives, our own MP Hon Lianne Dalziel, a large team from the Aranui Community Trust and all our local contributing schools bringing student leaders with their principals. A gift was given to their Excellencies, which was a wooden tea tray made out of pieces of wood from the demolished resource room (which used to be the original school music room).

The opening of the Technolgy and Art block was the second part of the programme, which began with Lady Satyanand cutting the ribbon and the Governor-General unveiling the plaque in the foyer. A tour of the new building and morning tea concluded the event.
The new Technology and Art centre, given the Ngai Tahu name Te Tai o Mahaanui, is now in use and much appreciated by staff and students alike.
