Kevin Hu, a math teacher at Takapuna Grammar School, has tragically passed away at 36 in a snorkeling accident in Fiji last Friday(14 Nov).

Torbay, Auckland

Kevin Hu came to New Zealand in 2018. After completing his master’s degree, he worked incredibly hard and eventually became a mathematics teacher—a career he was deeply passionate about. Kevin dedicated himself to building a better life for his family, and everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction. Tragically, this was cut short last week when he lost his life in a snorkeling accident in Fiji.

The family is currently looking into any travel insurance policy that Kevin may have had.

His family was devastated by the news. With the support of friends, classmates, and colleagues, Kevin’s elderly parents have already travelled to New Zealand. They are planning to fly to Fiji on Sunday (23 November) to bring their son home and take care of his final affairs.

The family is facing severe financial hardship. Kevin’s parents both rely on physically demanding labour jobs to make a living, and the unexpected costs involved in handling their son’s passing are overwhelming. They are now humbly seeking support from the community during this unimaginable time.

Kevin was adored by his students and colleagues and made a profound impact on the school. His passion for teaching—and his gift for making maths accessible and enjoyable—meant students loved being in his classroom. Kevin’s dedication, enthusiasm, and gentle spirit will be remembered always by those fortunate enough to know him.

We love you Kevin.

Kevin Hu 于 2018 年来到新西兰。完成硕士学位后,他努力工作,最终找到了一份数学老师的工作。Kevin 一直非常勤奋,希望让自己和家人过上更好的生活。一切都在朝着好的方向发展——直到上周的不幸发生:他在斐济浮潜时遭遇意外,不幸身亡。胡老师的家人需要你的帮助带他回家。
