Kia ora koutou katoa and a warm 'Hello' to the newest members of our alumni whānau
Welcome to the June/July edition of our Alumni Newsletter, a special issue celebrating our graduates’ vibrant journey and accomplishments. Over this graduation season, we are delighted to share stories from alumni across different fields and backgrounds.
Dive into these compelling narratives and celebrate the enduring Massey spirit with us.
In this edition, we spotlight Huzaifa Mohsinally, the valedictory speaker at one of our recent graduation ceremonies, whose story exemplifies overcoming adversity, pursuing dreams, and inspiring others. We also feature a touching story about two alumnae who started their Massey journey in 2004 and are now celebrating twenty years of friendship. And we celebrate the achievements of our alumni who were honoured in this year's King's Birthday Honours List.
We’ve also captured some beautiful moments from the graduation ceremonies. We invite you to check ou these photographs on our Facebook Alumni page. Join us in celebrating these stories of success, friendship, and global recognition.
Ngā mihi nui,
Alumni Relations Team
