Information and updates.

WATER POLO

The Senior A and Black team are competing in the South Island Secondary Schools Water Polo tournament and gained wins over Christchurch Boys High School 25 to 0, Burnside High School 23 to 3, John McGlashan College 17 to 5 and Verdon College 20 to 4. 

The semi final is at 9.45am on this Saturday, followed by the final at 3.15pm at Jellie Park and it would be great to see some boys down their cheering them on.

The Black team have had some tough games and yet to register a win, but they have scored some really good goals and are gaining very valuable experience by taking part in the tournament.
