On Thursday 2 June the sixteen new 2022 Owairoa House Leaders were fortunate enough to spend the day with Garth Collins, learning leadership skills and qualities. They discussed the eight great habits of leadership in an interactive and engaging manner.
One of the habits was about being proactive, where students had to make connections to things they already do in their lives and how they can use better initiative. One example was unloading the dishwasher at home without being asked, and at school picking up rubbish rather than walking past it.
House Leaders were extremely grateful for the opportunity to be Mr Collins’ last group before his retirement after many years of service to our school. They thoroughly enjoyed the day, working on further developing their leadership abilities.
