Congratulations also to our 1stX1 who have won the central region competition and who are now one of just 6 schools in NZ who will play off for the Gillette Cup in December to see who is the best school in NZ cricket. It’s a fantastic achievement and while we will present medals to the boys next week I wanted to have us congratulate the boys today on their success.
