P.I.L.O.T (Pacific Island Leaders of Tomorrow) Conference:

A group of GBHS students attended the P.I.L.O.T (Pacific Island Leaders of Tomorrow) Conference, held at Massey Unversity on 6 November 2024.

We are very proud of our students, all of whom were fantastic ambassadors of GBHS, taking part in workshops and connecting with others.

Special congratulations to Akesa Vea (Yr 10) who was awarded a prize for her confidence, and her commitment. Akesa showed a true display of networking within her groups, getting to know lots of students from other schools, and was involved in all tasks wholeheartedly throughout the conference.

Connecting students and culture, empowerment and inspiration, the day was filled with inspiring speakers, engaging workshops, activities, and talanoa related to the theme of: 'Our ancestors were pilots of the ocean'.

Pacific Island Leaders of Tomorrow (PILOT) is a community-focused program created to increase the number of emerging leaders in the Pacific Island community. Workshops are tailored around identifying Year 10-13 students' natural leadership skills while focusing on helping future leaders to reach their full potential.
