MCBB - Form Report

Brendan Biggs —

MCBB

What a crew that I was presented ... or should I say ... sorry guys you got me! 2017 has been a great year with these guys.

New players: 

Brooklyn Holmes Hurst - he has kept us very busy keeping track of him really. A real character who tests most teachers and has been brought into MCBB as a teacher-patience-tester! Brooklyn is a fun addition to the team.

Louie O'Donnell - A newbie from West Melton. Loves his hunting, fishing and rugby. Louie tried to get us all into gambling early in the year with the horses but we trailed the field sadly. Think he is heading to Lincoln in 2018. Have fun Louie.

Viliame O'Gotia - New from Fiji in 2017. A great smile and lots of ideas for the school to improve the integration of International students to school life. A future leader.

Leavers in 2017

Sione Afemui - heading to Japan to play rugby for a top university - Asahi University. He has been an integral part of the MCBB team and my son from Tonga. Came here in 2015 with little English and now leaves to learn another language and earn a few million.

Tim Hudson - heads out into the wide world of building. He has been cheeky, fun, full of life and a real charmer with the ladies. I look forward to hearing of his building future... we will miss him.

Kava Tangifua - came to us from Tonga in Sione's bags. Kava has been a wonderful student and class-mate. He has made many friends and now heads to family in Auckland and starts a new chapter in his life living in New Zealand.

Ronan Buchanan - I've got a feeling that he is heading to Hagley High. We wish him all the best. We will miss you.

Louie O'Donnell - Another who may be changing schools. Heading to Lincoln High to be with his hunter mates. Have fun Louie and keep your dad out of the panel beaters!

The Others:

  • We have dominated at Chess competitions.
  • Sadly not done too well with Omar at bowling with the Middle park Gentry.
  • Eaten a lot of Burger King and frozen coke.
  • Been on an adventure to a chocolate factory.
  • Won every tug of war competition that we have entered.
  • Made sure the computer technician has been awake at morning tea times.
  • Decided if we will open the computer room for morning teas.
  • Kept me honest throughout the year.
