Mr Claydon was there to lay a wreath into the Coral Sea in honour of his older brother Jack who was killed as an 18-year- old on the ship. AHS Centaur was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine on 14 May 1943. Of the 332 people on board, including mer- chant seamen, hospital staff and army nurses, only 64 survived.

Scholarship Programmes Including 7792569AA Innovative New Leadership Award

St Mary’s Diocesan School Principal Lynley Rawston announced the addition of a new Leadership Scholarship to its Scholarship Programme earlier this week.

“Our school encourages students to develop in all aspects, academic, sporting, the arts and in particular to build in confi dence and ability as courageous leaders in society. We are unashamedly proud that 70% of our senior students have taken advantage of opportunities and training in leadership,” Ms Rawston said.

The Leadership Scholarship, aimed to attract young women entering Year 9 who have all round academic ability and excellence in roles either in the community or their school, will provide a fee subsidy for two years as well as offer access to mentors; opportunities to join and assume leadership roles in student organisations at the school, participate in annual service projects and learn more about civic responsibility. Ms Rawston continued “As these students leave St Mary’s towards their future, they will be better prepared to become leaders in the workforce, their community and beyond.”

These days, our young people are sought to volunteer in numerous positions even before they begin their career. Student groups, sports’ associations, community volunteer groups all need offi ce holders, and people who have skills in encouraging and working with others. “It’s sad to see worthwhile groups going into recess for lack of leadership, at St Mary’s we believe these volunteer roles are vitally important and an ideal place for students to learn and extend life skills essential for their future, no matter what role or occupation they take on. We have a duty to support worthy volunteer organisations and this is one way we can contribute to the community while building our students’ leadership abilities”.

“St Mary’s continues to offer four other scholarships as in the past. Music, Sports, Boarding and Academic awards are also available to Year 9 students.” Competition for these scholarships has always been very high, with selection made by interview or exam. “Applicants need to complete the appropriate form, attend an interview before a selection panel and those applying for the Academic Scholarship will of course need to sit an exam.”

Applications close on Monday 8 November and interviews and the exam will be held at 10 am on Saturday 13 November – parents and family will be shown through the school and are invited to participate in a light lunch at 12 noon. “Scholarship application forms are available from St Mary’s School Offi ce or by downloading them from our website at www.stmarysstratford.school.nz.” 16 TE AWAMUTU COURIER, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2010 TE AWAMUTU COURIER, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2010 17 TA siblings among NZ’s top snowboarders Dakota and Fletcher Craig took to snow sports like ducks to water

BY COLIN THORSEN

The Craig siblings of Te Awa- mutu are hugely committed to their love of snow boarding — making the long trek to Ohakune every weekend to train. If the weather is bad enough to prevent them getting on the snow, they train in a gym on a trampol- ine. The dedication shown by Dakota (15) and Fletcher (9) paid off big time at the Junior National Snowboarding Championships in Wanaka. Competing in the half pipe, slopestyle, boarder cross and giant slalom, Fletcher gained three silver medals and one bronze. Dakota’s best placing in her same four events was fifth overall and third in New Zealand. In her three other events, she placed ninth overall and fifth in New Zealand. The Craigs are members of the Ruapehu Freestyle snowboarding team and have trained every week- end since June. Dakota is one of two girls in the team and Fletcher is one of the youngest. ‘‘The bigger boys push us along to try new jumps and tricks,’’ says Fletcher.
