The Wakatipu High School Foundation's first-ever Giving Day officially wrapped on 30th of April 2026 - and thanks to the overwhelming generosity of the wider community, raised a total of $134,335.
In just 12 hours, alumni, local businesses, families, and supporters came together to back Wakatipu High School students in a powerful show of community spirit.
Every donation, every share, and every message of support made a difference.
Generous supporters allow WHS to continue to invest in what matters most:
Teachers | Literacy & Numeracy | Wellbeing | Outdoor Education | The Āwhina Support Fund
This is what happens when a community stands behind its young people - real impact, real opportunity, real change.
Deepest thanks to all everyone who made this success possible.
