Year 7 Port Hills Trek 2024

By Room 15 | Posted: Wednesday February 21, 2024

The annual Year 7 Port Hills trek went ahead this year. Some students from Room 15 wrote about the experience.

On 13th February, the Year 7 students went on an extremely fun and exciting trek. The trek was from Victoria Park to Halswell Quarry. The Year 7 students enjoyed it. The trek was quite long, being approximately 15 kilometres up and down the hills. 

A big thank you to all the whānau and Casebrook staff who helped out. A special thank you to Miss Rennie for her organisation and Miss McKenzie for leading the group through the hills.
