๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŒŠ An Amazing Day in Kaikลura! ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ‹
What an incredible day out in beautiful Kaikลura with our Year 13 Business students on their Business Field Trip to the amazing Kaikลura Whale Watching company! ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‹

We had the opportunity to learn about the incredible history and journey of an iconic New Zealand tourism business, which celebrates 40 years in 2026.

From humble beginnings to becoming a world-renowned tourism experience, it was inspiring to hear how innovation, technology, passion and a strong connection to the natural environment have helped shape their success.

The students gained a valuable insight into what it takes to build and grow a successful business, while also seeing first-hand how technology and innovation can be used to create memorable experiences and share an incredible story with visitors from around the world. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’ก

Of course, no Kaikลura trip would be complete without enjoying a local favourite โ€” fish and chips! ๐ŸŸ๐ŸŸ

Then it was time to hit the water and experience the breathtaking beauty of Mother Nature. We were incredibly lucky to witness three s***m whale sightings, multiple humpback whales making their annual migration north, along with plenty of seals and incredible birdlife. ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿฆญ๐Ÿฆ…

A truly unforgettable day filled with learning, adventure, business insights and some very special moments on the water. ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’™

A huge thank you to the team at Kaikลura Whale Watching for sharing your story and passion with us.

Today we say farewell to the wonderful Carlotta Meier, who joined the Thompson boarding whฤnau at the beginning of this year.

Like many international students, Carlotta's journey began with a touch of homesickness. However, through her resilience, courage and positive attitude, she has truly flourished. Over the past few months, she has embraced every opportunity, formed lifelong friendships, taken on new challenges, and created memories that will stay with her for years to come.

Carlotta has been a valued member of our Thompson boarding whฤnau, an undefeated member of her badminton ๐Ÿธ team, and an enthusiastic participant in our International Club. Her kindness, warmth and willingness to get involved have left a lasting impression on everyone who has had the pleasure of knowing her.

Thank you, Carlotta, for everything you have brought to our community. We wish you safe travels home and every success and happiness as you begin the next chapter of your journey. We know you have a bright future ahead.

You'll always have a place in the StAC whฤnau. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™
