Congrats Mahurangi College Sport 🙌
HPC hosted Mahurangi College in our annual Sports Exchange this week, a sporting tradition now 63 years old, built on decades of competition, friendship and respect between our two schools.
A key feature of the exchange is the opportunity for students to be billeted with host families, a rare experience these days that adds real value and strengthens connections beyond the field of play.
This year’s exchange saw outstanding sportsmanship across all fixtures, with Mahurangi winning 7 of the 9 games to retain the Mahuraki Trophy for another year.
Off the field, the exchange also brought everyone together for a shared dinner for around 300 students, coaches and managers, adding another highlight to the exchange.
A sincere thank you to all coaches, managers and officials for their time, effort and support, and a special acknowledgement to the families who hosted billets and made this experience possible.
Well done to all students who took part in another memorable exchange.
We look forward to travelling to Mahurangi College in 2027.
