Man of the Week

Congratulations to Year 10 Kade Lawrie who stepped up to the Nicholson House Senior Basketball team in the Mitchell Cup Challenge when no one else would. He ended up carrying the team with some clutch 3 pointers over defenders twice his size. Great house spirit. Well done Kade.

Sunday Activities:

Last weekend our School House hostel boys joined the masses in the annual Dunedin Polar Plunge at St Clair, hung out with the Fifa Women's World Cup, tried some VR games and a had a great time in laser tag at Mega Zone. Plenty of laughs, fun, and experiences.
