Marsden students doing good
Maya (Year 12) has been volunteering her time with the Be Collective Wellington Office. Be Collective is a platform that makes volunteering easy, connecting people, businesses and groups to causes they care about. Maya is pictured with Community Development Manager, Lauren Parsons.
Marsden's Year 8 students have also completed over 300 hours of service in the community as part of their William Pike Service Day. They got busy in the kitchen and dropped off baking to various charities, helped out at Wellington Primary schools from Ngaio to Mirimar and picked up beach rubbish. Well done girls!
