Welcome to Performing Arts at Mairehau High School!
All Performing Arts courses contained here are provided for our students to not only develop and encourage their talents, and interest in the Arts, but to also build confidence which can help in many areas of life both at school and beyond!
Who am I? I'm Finn Gestro-Best! I am the Performing Arts kaiako at Mairehau High and am supported by a great Arts faculty.!
All course entitled "Performance" are a combination of both Dance and Drama - much of the course work is drawn from the interests of the students themselves so every year is different!
Each class is represented on this site - and I am trying to keep it updated regularly - please send any questions or concerns to me at gestrobestf@mairehau.school.nz.
