Happy graduates at Nuhaka School celebrated their success with their trainer, technician and school staff in November.  Their tutor included a full revision of their learning outcomes and sent them home with a disk reminder.

Local technician Leon Symes and Wairoa District Council have entered a bid to the Community Partnership Fund for more CIH families in the Wairoa region, building on what CIH has started via MoE funding.
