The victorious team

Well done to Mr Jeftha and the 1st XI for their convincing first round win over Bethlehem College on Wednesday 27 February. An outstanding batting performance led by captain Marcel Collett (115) set 170+ for the visitors to chase. A great start to the defence of our national title and as a school we wish the team all the best! The next game is 10 days away against Whakatane in Whakatane.

Who will be the next Black Cap???

A walk down history lane shows us how the NZ Cup (formally know as the Milo Cup) has bred future stars in the Black Caps. Kane Williamson (Otumoetai Intermediate), Doug Bracewell and Trent Boult (Tauranga Intermediate) all starred in their 1st XI Milo Cup Teams and are now taking on the Cricketing world. Good luck to our NZ CUP Team for 2013 who set about achieving a 3-peat. Work hard and anything is possible!

Tinman Triathlon - Success

An outstanding effort from Islah Kerr-Aim (Manuka), Kaylee Mudgway (Kahikatea)  and Theo Wright (Rata House)  who teamed up on Sunday the 2nd of December to win the "Mixed Team Sprint Division" at the Tinman Triathlon.  As they are only 13 they were not allowed to enter the Standard Division but had to race against all adult teams (no age group races for teams).  Theo got a puncture 1km out from the finish and had to run the last part of his cycle ... and they still won!  The distances covered were 750m swim, 20km cycle and 5.5km run.  Thanks to Mrs Kerr-Aim for the report and photos.
