All ākonga (students) in New Plymouth and Hāwera will be formally welcomed to our WITT Te Pūkenga whānau by a pōwhiri, on their first day.
The week you start your study journey with us will involve fun, games, and free kai.
All activities take place between 12pm - 1pm.
Lunch is sorted, grab yourself a free nacho box outside Te Piere, grab your friends and take some snaps in the photobooth, and get groovy with our very own DJ.
Join our lunchtime activities and win the epic prizes up for grabs, headphones, cafe vouchers, pak n save vouchers, notebooks and more! Enjoy mini golf - hole-in-one, hook-a-duck, table tennis, and balloon pop.
It's Market Day. See what our local community, businesses, and organisations have to offer students. We have Mitre10, Taranaki Womens Refuge, Road Safety, Rainbow Youth, and more coming along. Join us in Te Kāuta Cafe.
Test your three-point skills at our outdoor classroom next to Mātātoa Gym. We will have kai (sausage sizzle) and there will be epic prizes up for grabs like double passes to the next Taranaki Bulls rugby game!
We'll have a pancake station set up in Te Kāuta Cafe. Finish your week with something sweet.
All activities take place between 12:30pm - 1:30pm
Lunch is sorted for returning ākonga, grab yourself a welcome back free lunch, and get groovy with some tunes.
