Kalei Morgan-Tafea – 2022 Senior Athletics Champion
2023 WGHS Athletics
Westlake Girls is well-represented at the North Harbour, Auckland, North Island and New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Championships with the number of talented athletes that the school attracts. The Athletics programme begins in early February with an All School Athletics Day held at the at the AUT Millennium Track and Field Stadium. This is where the Senior, Intermediate and Junior Champions are discovered. Everyone is able to compete or participate in competitive and non-competitive house events to qualify for the Regional Athletics events or to earn house points respectively. Pupuke (Blue) has been the top house for a number of years and is regularly the one to beat with its great team spirit and formidable senior leadership.

NEW VENUE:
In the unlikely event a school trip is cancelled either by the school, a third party, or through extenuating circumstances, WGHS will endeavour to seek a refund of any deposit or full payment paid to an external party (such as flights or accommodation) on behalf of our students. Please note there may be situations where external parties are legally entitled to retain partial or full payment – in the case of a late cancellation, or binding agreement terms, for instance. In these situations, WGHS agrees to recover as much of the cost as practicable, however the school is not liable if a full refund is unattainable.
