Horotiu House Leaders - 2026

Helena Brown

House Prefect

Being Horotiu House Prefect for 2026 is an amazing opportunity that I am extremely grateful to receive. Along with Hayley, I will aim to make this year a fun and fulfilling year for everyone to enjoy. I wish to do this by making a tight-knit community, where people feel comfortable to reach their full potential.

I am excited to watch us grow as a house and individual students within themselves as we aim high in every aspect of school. 2026 is going to be a packed year full of opportunities for everyone to participate, and I look forward to coming out on top at the end of the year. Let’s go Horotiu!

Hayley Clarke

 House Prefect 

I’m Hayley, and I’m honoured to have the opportunity to be one of Horotiu’s house prefects for 2026. Being house prefect gives me the opportunity to support my house and represent it in a positive way. Along with Helena, we wish to make this year fun, fulfilling, and for everyone to give every opportunity ago. I wish to see everyone “Be good people” and more connected.

I am excited to watch Horotiu grow as a house and to see every member of Horotiu thrive in every aspect of school and beyond. It will be a year filled with opportunities for all to participate in. I look forward to seeing and being apart of Horotiu’s success. Let's come out on top this year Horotiu!

Paige Abbott-Joe 

House Captain 

Hello everyone, I'm a proud member of Horotiu's leadership team this year. Together, we aim to create an atmosphere where the students of CHS feel comfortable expressing themselves and feel supported when taking part in events.

Leadership, to us, means listening, encouraging, and standing beside you every step. The only way we can achieve this is by diving in headfirst into every opportunity and challenge, and lifting each other up along the way. My goal is to motivate everyone to participate, keep our spirit burning, and make sure everyone feels proud to wear red.

Let’s create moments to remember, celebrate our wins and losses, and make this year one to live up to. Hawks all the way!

Andrew Coutts

House Captain

It is my privilege to be one of your house captains for 2026. I am involved in CHS life as a Yr 12 student and a committed sportsman playing a variety of sports for our school.

I'm part of the More-re first XI Rankin Cup hockey team which I am very proud of. This has taught me that hard work pays off, playing with my teammates is awesome and having fun as we succeed is a highlight for me.

I want to bring this into our house- I will work hard to get everyone having a great time and get stuck in as we do the mahi together, so we reap the rewards for our house.  

Austin Savage 

House Captain

I am privileged to be given the responsibility to help lead Horotiu this year. I’m really looking forward to helping lead our house and contributing to a positive, supportive environment for everyone. I strongly believe in teamwork and giving every moment the best you can.

I would love to see Horotiu be highly competitive this year while still upholding our core values of respect and integrity to all. This year, I want to build meaningful connections throughout Horotiu and encourage others to get involved and take pride in representing our house.

By setting this example collectively, Horotiu will soon be successful. I’m excited to help make this a memorable and successful year for all of us.

Eleanor Whittaker

House Captain

Kia Ora School, I can’t wait to see what this year brings for Horotiu. I’m so excited to be working alongside such awesome leaders and teammates, and to see how we grow as a community and house. This year will be filled with fun, house spirit, and lots of cool activities, which I’m looking forward to helping run, encouraging others to get involved.

Some things I bring to the table and am looking forward to using throughout 2026 are my confidence, communication, and ability to help uplift others, encouraging them to join in the fun. I’m always ready to lend a helping hand.

I can’t wait to see what this year brings for these amazing leaders and the mighty Horotiu, up the Hawks!
