Each year the University of Canterbury holds the KIWI Competitions in English, Maths and Science.

This year over 13,382 students from approximately 400 schools throughout New Zealand participated in the competition and 16 students represented Shirley Boys’ High School.

We are delighted to share that several of our students received placings in the competition and were presented with their certificates by Mr Laurenson in Assembly on Friday 7th September.
