From the Headmaster Issue 63, 18 February 2014 From the Headmaster Assembly Notes Click here for Assembly notes The year is now well underway, and the weather has enabled a brisk start to the athletics preliminaries. ‘Big Monday’ yesterday completed the annual swimming competitions, as well as an afternoon of athletics run with an intensity and pace that Coast to Coast only outstanding organisation can achieve. The track technology is equal in function to any top level international event, the processing of results, Over the weekend College had six instant and faultless, and the staff expertise impressive.

We congratulate the three top in subject Scholarship winners (Drama and Music at STAC) and Geography at CGHS, and the further Outstanding Scholars, another at CGHS and one at Shirley Boys’. The new Year 13 have been an academically strong group throughout the school, and we are very confident for this year. Notable in this year’s results were the biology department topping the Scholarship merit table, and Scholarships in Calculus won by Luke Gellen in Year 11, and in Statistics and Modelling by Christopher Brown in Year 10. Our top performer was Jack English, whose four scholarships reflected his ability and commitment. The full list appears elsewhere in this newsletter. Two important other matters.

  • Speight's Coast to Coast Multisport Race
    Speight’s Coast to Coast Multisport Race – South Island NZ The Speight’s Coast to Coast traverses the South Island of New Zealand from Kumara Beach on the Tasman Sea to Sumner Beach on the Pacific Ocean. Over either two days (individuals or two person teams) or the one-day event (individuals only), competitors cycle 140 kms (three stages of 55km, 15 km and 70 km), run 36 km (including a 33 km mountain stage that crosses the Southern Alps) and kayak 67kms of the grade two Waimakariri River through the Grand Canyon of New Zealand, the Waimakariri Gorge. Having completed the two day team’s event with my Dad in 2008 it was time to give it a crack as an individual. A lot of thought goes into entering an event like this as not only does it cost a bomb (I estimate I have spent around $8,000 on entry fees, flights, gear, supplements etc) but the time spent out on your bum and legs, away from family and friends is huge and it can be quite a selfish sport if you don’t balance your time right. I was lucky in that my boyfriend Scott and a close friend Dan also entered the race so we could bounce things off each other and even though I mostly trained alone, the boys were usually not far away and it was motivation enough to know they were out there feeling the pain as well. Following a programme by the infamous Steve Guerney (8 time Coast to Coast winner) mornings, evenings and the majority of every weekend was taken up with training.
