✨ What an incredible day at the Crimson Age Market Day! ✨

Our students and staff had a wonderful time connecting across all CGA schools, showcasing their entrepreneurial spirit, and presenting a stunning range of high-quality products they had designed, created, and sold. From creative ideas to polished ex*****on, the talent and business acumen on display were truly inspiring.

A special shout-out to the super keen students who travelled from Wanaka and Tauranga to be part of the event — your dedication shows just how powerful our learning community is when we come together. 💫

It was heartwarming to see students supporting their peers, meeting in person, and building connections that will last well beyond the day. We were also delighted to have special appearances from our young Emi Hybrid learners, adding even more energy to the occasion.

A massive thank you to everyone who contributed to making Market Day such a success — students, staff, families, and supporters. You’ve shown us once again the power of creativity, courage, and community. 💡🌍👏

Big thanks to Crimson Age for the invitation to join in the fun!

We are super proud of Taylor who competed in the recent AIMS games in Tauranga on Tuesday. Taylor won a silver medal in kayaking. She also got to meet two Olympic paddlers Kurtis Imrie & Max Brown. We are immensely proud of you Taylor for representing MHA with pride! Here is what Taylor had to say about her day…
At the end of Term 1 I decided I wanted to compete in canoe racing at the AIMS games. So I started going to canoe training sessions at the Wairoa river. On the day of AIMS I was excited to compete. My only 2 goals were to not fall out and not come last. When we arrived at Pilot Bay ( where I was competing) the wind was so strong that they had to move the course down quite a bit hoping to get shelter from Mauao. I ended up coming 2nd in my C Final, and was happy that I could also compete in a mixed relay team with 2 girls from different schools. We won a silver medal for coming 2nd in the YR 7 girls relay event.​
AIMS highlight: ​
Meeting the Olympic paddlers and spending the day with my friends, and meeting new kids. ​
I am proud of myself because I achieved my goals and I did my best. I had a great day, it was so much fun and I will definitely be doing it again next year! The vibe is fun and positive with music playing and everyone being so supportive.
