Well done to the following students who have achieved success in their chosen sports.
Softball
Congratulations to McKenzie Bailey-McDowell, Y11, who has been named in the NZ U18 Junior White Sox Squad.
Cross Country
Congratulations to Pai Wynyard, Y11, who was selected to represent Canterbury in the U18 Team at the NZ Athletics Cross Country held in Dunedin. Pai placed 9th in the Individual and 2nd in the Canterbury Team.
Skiing
Congratulations to Molly McKinney, Y9, who placed 9th out of 66 girls in the Canterbury Secondary Schools' Ski Race held at Mt Hutt. This was a great result, especially considering her high start number, as the course gets more rutted as the racing progresses. All year groups are represented so this was amazing for a year 9 student.
