Hone Kouka

Hone Kouka, left, though less well-known in his home town, has written many successful stage plays, mainly on Maori themes. He has also had success as a poet, children’s writer and theatre artistic director. Assistant Principal, Mr Frost remembers Hone fondly as a gifted rugby player, a central figure in the infamous ’battle of Littlebourne’, as well as a pupil who was keen on drama and took part in King’s major productions like Salad Days.
