ANNUAL
GIVING DAY.
The inaugural WHS Giving Day, held on Thursday 30 April 2026, was an outstanding success.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised $134,335 in just 12 hours, exceeding our fundraising goal and creating a lasting impact for Wakatipu High School students and our wider community.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our generous matching donors, including John & Mary Thompson, Michelle & Anthony King and Sharyn & Grant Stalker whose commitment to matching every donation inspired others to give and doubled the impact of every gift. We are also incredibly grateful to everyone who donated, shared our campaign, and helped spread the word. Together, you demonstrated the extraordinary power of community. When our school thrives, our whole community benefits.
