New Zealand Heartland XV

Belinda Hirst —

What an amazing opportunity our students had today at lunchtime when we shared the sports field with the New Zealand Heartland XV. It was great to see them playing lacrosse and simple ball with our students, and some of our students showing them how it’s done!

We wish them the very best for their game against the Barbarian team tomorrow at 2.00 pm at the Whitestone Stadium. Note that under 18 are free entry. What really impressed me was how kind and respectful these guys were with our students. The time they gave, the conversations they had, and as for the haka… very moving.
