We hold an annual
sports exchange with Waitara High School in Taranaki. The
exchange involves a two night stay with players being billeted.
The school is represented by the top teams in rugby, hockey,
netball, basketball, volleyball and golf. This exchange
is always a highlight on our school calendar.
Sports

Senior students
who have a particular interest in furthering their involvement
in sport are able to become a member of the school’s

are targeted as well as growth in the student’s particular
sporting code.

international levels in several different codes. We provide
some financial support for students who represent New Zealand

at this level.
