TOI is a Wearable Art competition run in collaboration with World of Wearable Art (WOW), offering students an exciting opportunity to experience the WOW world. With over 900 registrations nationwide, being selected was no small feat. Last week Miss Paige Kingston and Wendy Shave took 13 students, representing 10 entries, to the Bay Of Plenty regional event.
The sheer amount of imagination, dedication, and countless hours of hard work that went into these designs is awe-inspiring. We could not be prouder of how these girls represented our kura! Overall Waihi College took home 6 awards including Star of the Night (Overall Winner). A special congratulations goes to our winners of the night:
