The Haurakian Charitable Trust bought the Hayward Dairy Farm in 2006 to provide financial support to Hauraki Plains College and the local community. 

At 64 hectares and only a five minute walk to the college, Hayward Farm was a perfect fit for the trust and the farm is run as a 100 percent commercial venture.

For the first three years a 50:50 sharemilker was on the property, now the farm is operated by a contract milker. The trust owns the herd of around 200 cross-bred cows and wants to ensure that the business is driven as profitably as possible for the future of Ngatea.
