Angus Murray: Year 9 Boarder Profile

TBHS —

Hello - my name is Angus Murray, I am in Year 9 and I live on a big sheep station up the western side of Lake Tekapo.

Our farm is 19,000 hectares. We have 11,000 sheep, 360 Angus cattle and 830 Red Deer. There are five people in my family. I have a younger sister and brother, plus three dogs and a cat. We have many other pets but I would be here forever telling you about them. 

In my spare time I like to go out hunting or fishing in our place. The valley that runs right up our farm is called the Cass Valley with the Cass River running out to Lake Tekapo. The reason I decided to come to TBHS and Thomas House is because it is close enough to home to go home most weekends. I have a lot of family around Timaru and a lot of my mates were coming here. My dad went to Christ's College but it was way too far away to come home and it just felt better coming here to Thomas House.
