STUDENT LEADERS
Huanui College, founded in 2010, and set in the tranquil rural outskirts of Whangarei, Northland, draws upon open-minded, enterprising, supportive young adults to inject their energy and enthusiasm into this stimulating and expanding learning environment.
Emily Stolwerk - Head Prefect
Jamie Taylor - Head Prefect
Over the last six years I have attended Huanui College, the school has become like a family to me. I have learnt from my mistakes and used these to improve myself. It is an honour to be named Head Prefect for 2022. I am looking to be a link between students, staff, parents and the public. The success of the school relies on students feeling welcome and thriving during their time at Huanui College. As Head Prefect I wish to offer advice and support to pupils who may be struggling. This may be done by holding “office hours” once a week, where students are welcome to come and ask for help or tutoring, or even if it’s just offering a friendly face to talk to - as sometimes, that’s all we need.
This year at Huanui College, I would like to work on and see an improvement in the connections between students, particularly those within their respective whānau groups. I would also like to offer the following message to my fellow students: take advantage of every opportunity Huanui College offers, take advantage of the various sporting codes we support, take advantage of the activities on offer for period seven, and take advantage of the educational opportunities! Having classes with relatively lower numbers means that you have the opportunity to build a much stronger relationship with your teachers and that they will be much more able to push, aid, and guide you with support.
Kala Payinda - Deputy Head Prefect
Henry Storey - Deputy Head Prefect
A piece of advice I have for younger students is to not beat yourself up over difficulties in class, but instead realise it’s not that significant, and make a plan about how these problems will be overcome - whether that is meeting with a teacher for help, seeking out older students in tutoring sessions, or even asking classmates to spend a little extra time explaining the concepts. Many people are more willing to help than I used to think, and it was a genuine relief when I actually began utilising those resources. Not only did this help me become happier with my results, but also made me more confident in my abilities as I now had a good support background in case I ever had troubles in the future.
As the Deputy Head Prefect of Huanui College, I would like to improve overall quality by enriching the personal experience of each and every student here. We as the student leaders will achieve this by not only demonstrating a high level of respect around the school but also by encouraging the younger students to take part and have a responsibility both within and outside the classroom. By involving students in sports and academic challenges, we build team skills while working together in our whānau groups and continue to enhance competition within the school.
Natalya Newman - Deputy Head Prefect
Juliet Heaton - Whanangatanga Deputy Head Prefect
I want to represent the creative minds and voices of Huanui College. Whether it be drama, writing, music, art, or anything within the limitless spectrum of creativity, I want to make sure that creative-inclined students can express themselves, and that these qualities are reflected within the prefect group. This year, I hope that students will find prefects that they trust to lead them and represent their voices within Huanui College. I want to work with students using the Whānau mentoring systems, which will provide us with a healthy support system. This will expand at Huanui so that students themselves can learn from those before them and, in turn, help to guide the younger students.
SCHOOL PREFECTS (from left:)
Hello! I am Juliet, and I have attended Huanui College since Year 7. I am the Whanautanga Prefect for 2022. Being the Whanautanga Prefect is great because it is such a new role, and that means there is room for ideas and creativity - which is something I have always had a passion for. The meaning of whanaungatanga is a sense of family connection - a relationship through shared experiences and working together which provides people with a sense of belonging. This is what I hope to provide for all members of Huanui College including past alumni.

Kia Ora, I’m Trey and I am privileged to be one of your head boys for this year. I’m a very musical student and take the majority of the arts subjects to help enhance my confidence in performance and public speaking. I am excited to take on this role to help our students and younger leaders at Kamo High School to strive to their full potential. I will hopefully be able to give them knowledge on how to become a leader while also listening to them to see how I can change to become a better leader.
be named as one of the head prefects at Kamo High School this year. I hope everyone has had a wonderful start to the year and is fitting in well. This year I am taking Health, P.E, English, Statistics and Biology with the goal of gaining UE and then attend university next year. I am very passionate about sports and love playing hockey (we’re looking for more players too!). I cannot wait to work with all the other prefects and staff to increase the connections, whanaungatanga and positive interactions among our students.
Jezekiah-Lee Tangariki-Pou
Tessa Cooper
Tena tatou koutou I am Jezekiah-Lee, and this year I have the honour of being one of your Head Prefects. I am currently studying Biology, Mathematics, Health, English and Te Reo Maori. These subjects will support me with my future aspirations of becoming a Physiotherapist and I plan to attend Auckland University next year. I really enjoy physical activity, and I participate in the sports of Netball and Touch both in and outside of school. On a personal level, I want to increase more awareness around cultural identities, in particular enhancing TeReo Maori within our kura. This is important to me because I am immersed in my tikanga and want to help revive our language. As head prefect, my goal is to develop leadership skills for my peers by initiating and supporting leadership activities in our school and community. I look forward to working alongside the rest of the prefect team and senior staff.

Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa. Nga mihi nui ki a koutou katoa, This is the first year for a while since we have started the year with a full set of student leaders. Students, staff and whanau do not underestimate the importance and responsibility of a student leadership position at Taipa Area School. Our Students leaders are excited about making a difference and leaving a strong legacy within their own portfolio. Student leaders meet with our House Leaders (Mr Hailstone, Mr Carruthers and Miss Tito) on a weekly basis to develop actions to support the students to follow our school values.
mahitahi are also our school houses. We are fortunate to have 2 house captains for each house. Their role is to work closely with the students and House Leader to awhi and help with the organisation of house competitions. Additionally, we have our four senior school leaders who all have individual responsibilities for hauora, culture, sport and the environment. Finally, our Head Students work closely with myself. We meet every Friday morning-tea and the Head Students keep me up to speed with students’ wellbeing and achievement.
