Hillcrest alumni launch Fund for their school

The Team from Momentum Waikato

When the Waikato Symphony Orchestra played at the recent Hamilton Arts Festival, roughly a third of the musicians on stage were former students of one local secondary school.

Hillcrest High School - Te Kura Tuarua o Tihipuke is well known for producing such artistic graduates, reflecting its holistic approach to education, which encourages students to try things out and become successful all-rounders.
