Our top scholars from 2025 were recognised at Academic Assembly
Today Rosmini College held its Academic Assembly to celebrate the outstanding NCEA and Scholarship achievements of our students in 2025. The pinnacle of the ceremony was the announcement of our top honors for 2025: Te Wharekōkōwai Pāora-Chamberlain was named Dux, and Luka Parker was named Proxime Accessit. Both young men have demonstrated exceptional perseverance and aptitude.
The assembly also recognised students who earned Merit and Excellence endorsements in NCEA Levels 1 and 2. Those who secured 50 or more Excellence credits received academic badges, while those who surpassed 100 credits were presented with a badge and tie as they joined the prestigious "100 Club". These results reflect the dedication of our students and the support provided by their families and the College community.
Success in the rigorous New Zealand Scholarship exams is a collective effort, and we were proud to acknowledge the teachers who guided these students to success: Mrs Jo Berry, Mrs Rachel Peak, and Mrs Joelle Tait (English); Mrs Elizabeth Jeong and Mrs Renee Mackay (Biology); Mr John Smith (Physics); Mr David Amrein (Statistics); Mr Shah Anwar (Calculus); Mrs Beth Hayes (Drama); Mr Josh Campion (Media Studies); Mrs Stephanie Chapman (History); Miss Olivia Fernandes and Mr Michael Kim (RE); and Mr Nick Kozuls (Design & Visual Communication).
Congratulations to all our award winners, particularly Te Wharekōkōwai, for reaching the highest peak of academic achievement at Rosmini College.
