Auckland Refugee CIH graduation
13 newly-arrived families from refugee backgrounds celebrated their graduation at the Wesley Community Centre on Sunday 19 May. Sharing their stories and their delightful children is always such a privilege for us and we are humbled by their determination to succeed and their dedication to a bright future in Aotearoa New Zealand. Tutor Angie Gibbons does such a great job, assisted by tech Grant Mcgregor and assistant Diana. We were joined by Ministry of Education Migrant Coordinator Parvathi Raghunathan to complete the graduation ceremony. Well done everyone!
