Dear Parents/Caregivers
We farewelled the James Hargest group this morning
after what has been a very busy and successful two days
of sport and cultural exchange. This annual event which
has been going for 28 years is always one of the highlights
of the year. This year was no exception. Thanks to all the
staff, coaches and referees involved and especially to
families who billeted students from Invercargill.
The competition was fierce and we saw a high level of
skill, determination, perseverance and respect at all
events. The results listed below show an 8 all draw. OIS
teams also won the dodgeball and quiz but these do not
count for points. Likewise the dance and speeches are not
judged.
