Porirua & City Alt School

Code of Ethics

Our City and Porirua Alt teams linked up for a day of training around the youth work code of ethics. Simon from Ara Taiohi ran the day for us, and there was no shortage of laughs, activities, robust discussion and even some spirit fingers! 

​

Porirua Alt Boxing

Been cool connecting with the Cannons Creek boxing academy this term. Our students have learnt how hard boxing training really is, and the staff have been reminded of their age!

​

Shout out to the team at the academy. You can check them out here.

Porirua Alt Exhibit

Today our students got to share the journey they have been on this term with Zeal through an exhibition of photos. 

​

It was a special moment shared with whānau and friends. 

Congratulations

We want to say a massive congratulations to our two interns. 

​

Lincoln who received his Diploma in youth and community studies. Lincoln has interned with the Porirua alt school for the past two year while he completed this. He has a gentle confidence in getting along side our students and forming relationships, as well as a very artistic side in the form of photography and music. 

​

Nat who completed the first year of the diploma, and will go on to complete his second year next year. Nat has been with us for just over a year after arriving from Fiji. We look forward to supporting his study for the next year.

Ka rawe kōrua!
