The Spoon Challenge

7/22/2019

0 Comments

 
Term three has started well and a confident Year 13 class challenge the teachers to volleyball as the first of many challenges. Game 1 started strong. 6 year 13s vs 5 staff members. After going over the rules, and checking our refs were clued up, we got going. With some fantastic serves from Mr Ferguson and good team management from Tessa Allan it was a great match, finally won by the teachers. Game 2 again great team management. Teachers having words with Mr Kelly as he let the ball sail past him. The students explaining to Morgan Bailey that in volleyball you don't use your feet. The teachers win 2 games to nil.

New Zealand Area Schools Tournament

7/8/2019

At the start of the term we took a large group of students up to Murchison for the Area Schools Nationals Trials. From our group of 11 students 7 were selected into teams to represent the Top of the South at the National tournament in July. These students are; Dean Cottrell, Bill Bailey, Jacob Paton, Josh Evans, Luke Sterne, Caleb Norton, and Tahlia Beck. The boys are all going for Rugby and Tahlia will be playing Basketball at the tournament. This year the tournament is being held in Rotorua meaning the team will be going on a road trip and taking in some sites on the long journey north.
Mr Ferguson will be going with them to coach the Ki o Rahi team, while Mr Beck will be supporting the Rugby team and Selecting for the New Zealand Area Schools Rugby Team. We also have an ex-student Ashleigh Beck coming to coach the Girls Basketball with the assistance of Paula Beck.
The team, parents, and staff have been working hard with fundraising events and would like to thank everyone in the community for their support particularly those who attended or supported the Quiz Night. Without your help this event would be extremely costly and our students would find it difficult to represent our area to a high standard.
​We wish them all the best and look forward to the results and hearing if they make Island or Nationals Tournament Teams.
