Y12 Art student Patrick Lemeki followed up his success from 2024 by having two artworks accepted into the highly competitive NZQA Ringa Toi Exhibition 2025.

Patrick's artwork, “Together we stand”, secured second place in the highly competitive Pasifika Excellence Award. This win is especially significant given that it came from a field of over 280 submissions from 49 schools.

In addition, his second submission, “Sei o Fafine”, was noted as one of the artworks that grabbed the attention of well known artist and judge for the Pasifika Excellence category, Michael Tuffrey.

We are so proud of Patrick’s pursuit of excellence in art. Honourable mention and thanks to the support of Miss Rudden.
