Unfortunately the 2019-20 season will be remembered nearly as much for the pinnacle events (Competition Finals, South Island Athletics Championships and Summer Tournament week with one of the school sport flagships the Maadi Cup) all cancelled.

Our prize-giving centres around the presentation of Athletics, Swimming, Cricket and Rowing Cups & Trophies. It also sees Colours awarded to outstanding sporting performance and long service to a school sport.The performance colours were dominated by the rowers who had one of there best ever South Island Schools Regatta's prior to Lockdown. The performances of Lucas Mullings (Softball) and Kaylum McAuley (Speed Skating) in gaining selection in National teams were also particularly noteworthy.Old Boy and Balck Cap Cricketer Hamish Bennett (2000-2004) was the guest speaker. His message about backing yourself coming from a provincial town and making the most of your opportunities went over well with the boys and the staff. Hamish spoke to the bowlers in the 1st XI and was even absconded to the Food Nutrition department to speak to the boys about sporting nutrition.
