Once again, students volunteered their services to assist the Stratford Cancer Society with the luncheon and selling of flowers for 2011 Daffodil Day. Thanks to Alison Matthews, Andrew Hunger, Amy Luckhurst, Elizabeth Corbett, Shannon Morrow-Washer, Melissa Coull-Herewini, Jessica Nicholas, Christine Podjursky and Michaela Dormer for providing this valuable community service on behalf of our school.

Lara Williams:
Taranaki Female Hockey Player
of the Year 2011

 Taranaki Female Hockey Player of the Year
On 27 August Taranaki Hockey held their annual club awards evening. The criteria for the player of the year awards were that you needed to represent Taranaki in some way, show great skill, talent and be a team player. It is a difficult award to receive as there are 8 clubs with a total of 112 players vying for the honour. It was with great excitement and shock that Lara Williams received this award for 2011.

As part of her commitment to hockey, Lara played for SHS Girls 1st XI, captained the Taranaki Under 15 team and was tournament player of the week as well as Most Valuable Player for the second year.







Congratulations
To Laureen Cox who was 3rd in the TSSSA Senior Girls Road Cycle champs and also won one of the spot prizes on the day.

To Sarah Cooper, Melissa Coull-Herewini, Rebecca Poole, Daniel Stieller, Kate Thomas who were presented with Peak 2011 bars as acknowledgement of their involvement in the production of the school magazine this year.

To Josh Hunger and Quinlin Bosson-Thompson who were selected for the Taranaki Under 14 rugby team. They play against a visiting Australian school next Thursday in Tikorangi. Scott Caskey and Jarvis Gotty are in the Under 16 team and Adrian Pitman was selected for the Taranaki Under 18 team.
