Student Leadership

A school of many leaders

Leadership is a characteristic that is highly valued and is reflected in Te Kura Tuarua o Taniwharau. We believe that our young leaders need to be nurtured, mentored and guided through the sometimes turbulent years of secondary school. At Fraser, we have a range of opportunities for students to learn to lead and gain the invaluable social virtue of service to others.
