We met our new 2021 year 7 students at our Year 7 Orientation day! They were a terrific bunch; friendly, happy and excited young adults who were willing to participate in everything. Orientation Day What a great day, filled with fun and enthusiasm as year 6 students were given a taste of high school life!

Students attended 'Taster Classes' allowing them to not only become familiar with what classes they will expect to attend, but also changing classrooms and the structure of a day at Hastings Secondary College.
