Their constant leadership, support and encouragement of staff during the entire period was appreciated and valued.

Our student retention strategy was very important. We really wanted to protect our roll by keeping as many existing families as possible. We planned a number of ways to do this. Delivering an outstanding online learning environment was very important so that students and families could see and feel that. The students were not actually in a classroom with their teachers and others, they were at least getting the best that a virtual experience could offer. The Trust Board played an important role by offering fee reductions for boarding and a tuition rebate. The Foundation established a hardship fund that enabled families to apply for funds to assist with fee payments. The school also offered a number of other ways to pay fees in a more flexible manner. When we returned from lockdown, we implemented assessment reductions, maintained as many routines as possible and tried very hard to run as many events as possible, (albeit in a different format), focussing on safety and wellbeing.

This year will go down as one of the most creative years in St Peter’s history. With all the challenges, so many opportunities have emerged to try new things. The fear of failure that so often suppresses the human spirit has been removed out of the necessity to serve our neighbour.

For the first time ever, the chaplaincy department (of one), produced a series of church services and devotional videos, through Facebook and YouTube, in the latter part of Term 1 and into Term 2. The live online Easter services, Anzac service and Sunday services were lonely affairs. Only a few of the community tuned in, but for me personally, they were an extremely exciting space to try something completely new. In contrast, the 35 five-minute devotional videos I produced proved very popular, with 400 to 2000 views for each, and many people providing encouraging feedback about their impact.

I also continued ‘live’ Chapel services for students, but these also had to be customised to the times. This year we looked at the ‘Ministry of Jesus,’ ‘the story of Ruth’, ‘the Life of King David’, and ‘self-esteem through the book of Romans’.

The charity engagement programme started well, with more than $12,000 raised by 54 students who participated in the 1 annual Cancer Society Relay for Life. During the remainder of the year, students raised a further $17,000 for the 40-Hour The Religious Education programme continues to be shaped Famine, Mvumi School (Tanzania) and the Salvation Army so that there is a progression of Christian understanding Foodbank.

13 HEAD BOY’S FINAL SPEECH

Head Boy Jamal Roberton

Tihei mauri ora. Te tuatahi, he honore ki te Atua, Tuarua, he honore te Kiingi Maori, Kiingi Tuheitia, pai marire ki a ratou. For some of us today, this is it. From that nerve-wracking first interview with senior leadership, to the daunting move into high school, to the realisation that “jeez, these years have flown by.”

Now I’ve got to be in charge of myself. I really wish I’d paid more attention to Mum when she was explaining how to cook more than a bowl of Weet-bix, how to sew a button on and why I’ve got to start replying to people in better than 8–10 business days. I’ll do better next year Mum. Promise. We have reached the last day of an epic journey. One that has been filled with many amazing memories - and maybe the odd memory or two we’d rather forget.

One of my most memorable would have to be my experience in the prep school production, Aladdin. Landing the role of Jafar, I thought I was the man - until I realised that trying to put on a deep voice as a 13 yr old pubescent boy really doesn’t work (voice crack, cough).

I think many of us often take for granted how lucky we are And be prepared to fail. Through failure, you find your to be here at this school. Only 4% of New Zealand students strengths. Take me, for example. I tried art in Year 9. I thought attend private school. Of those 4%, only a fraction attend I’d be pretty good, considering Dad’s an artist. But trust me, I a school with a campus and possibilities such as St Peter’s failed. Miserably. As a result, I’ve got massive respect for every offers us. When we explore what’s possible, we discover who art student out there - let’s just say I’ll leave anything art we really are and where our strengths lie. related to you experts.

So to those of you continuing at St Peter’s, take advantage of Be proud of who you are. As Dr Seuss says, “Why fit in when every possibility that comes your way. More than that, create you were born to stand out?” your own possibilities. Sign up to a cultural club, take up a new sport, tutor someone, try the drums, try anything you 2020 has proven that we are more connected than ever thought wasn’t possible! before. There is no place for a survival of the fittest mentality. When we take advantage of what’s on offer here, we develop connections with like-minded people. We can then harness the power of our strengths and our connectedness. Through Covid, we did this.

We have all worked as a collective to be here today - students, whanau, friends and staff - unified, stronger, better.

To those of us leaving, one chapter of our journey has ended, but a whole new exciting chapter awaits. Let’s take our individual talents and skills, draw from the life- long connections we have made here at St Peter’s and go out into the world and make a difference. Through our connectedness, we can combat climate change, we can help the vulnerable, we can create and innovate.let’s make the world a better place.

Always remember that we wouldn’t be where we are today without our supporters. So thank you. Thank you to St Peter’s. You have laid the foundations for us. Thank you to my friends and fellow Year 13’s. Thanks little sis for putting up with me for the last 17 years. And thanks Mum and Dad. For everything.

I’d like to leave you all with a whakatauki - a Maori proverb that urges us to utilise our strengths and connectedness.

Nāu te rourou, nāku te rourou, ka ora ai te manuhiri - With your basket of knowledge and my basket of knowledge, the people will prosper. Jamal

14 HEAD GIRL’S FINALNAMEATTOP SPEECH

Head Girl Sophie Waddell

Our lives are like books. Some chapters are sad, some are choices are difficult, because although we have endless exciting, some are full of pain, some are full of love, but you’ll opportunities, we don’t have endless time. Netball or never know what the next chapter holds if you never turn football? Piano or guitar? Chemistry or woodwork? These the page. We have finally reached the end of this year at St are the crossroads that pave the direction of our stories. Even Peter’s - for some of us, our very last. Our final farewell to more important are the choices we don’t even realise we’re our home of the past number of years. This school has been making. The ones that change the stories of those around us. the page upon which so many of us have begun to write the story of our lives. Finally, as we near the end, and prepare to There’s a little thing called the butterfly effect: the idea that turn over to a new chapter, I can’t help but flick back over a butterfly flapping its wings in one place, can affect each what’s been written so far. air current ever so slightly, so it ends up causing a hurricane somewhere else. We each get a chance to be the butterflies. Every small action we take could be a defining moment in somebody else’s story, and you may never even know it. Just by being yourselves, you’re changing the world. Every small act of kindness; every smile, wave hello, or encouraging word, is what makes this place feel like a family. To everyone here at St Peter’s - keep being the beautiful people you are, because YOU are what makes this school so special. He tangata, it is the people.

So thank you, on behalf of myself and the Year 13s of 2020, to the people who have guided us through this school, and who we wouldn’t be here without. To the staff who have taught and supported us, to our incredible peers who have left us with memories we will treasure forever, to our parents and whanau, thank you for the support and opportunities you have given us throughout the years. To my own Mum and Dad: I’m endlessly grateful for everything you do for me, and I love you.

To those who are still in the St Peter’s chapter of their lives - be present, be happy in the moment, and make every choice you make count, because you never know whose story it will affect. And finally to my peers, those who are moving onwards and upwards in the world: This school has given us all the paper and ink we could possibly wish for. Now it’s up to us to write our own story. Let’s make it a bestseller. Sophie

All of us have had incredible experiences here, and I think we do often take them for granted. There are not many secondary school students who can say they have: produced their own wine and honey at school, cycled at a world class velodrome, or performed in or watched Broadway standard shows. Whenever you ask someone why they come to St Peter’s, 99% of the time they say, “for the opportunities”. The most important thing I think this school gives to any of us, isn’t the opportunities themselves, but instead, it’s teaching us a growth mindset that enables us to grab them with both hands. A word to those who still have time here - There are so many opportunities, and you won’t have enough hours in a day to take them all, but pick what makes you happy, that you are passionate about, and want to go back to every single day. Whatever you do, do it to the fullest extent, and believe in yourself that you can always improve and be better than you were yesterday.

When I look back over each page in our St Peter’s stories, amongst the memories of fried bread and popcorn in the Student Centre, the fire alarm school bell, and blowing stuff up in junior science; are choices. Crossroads and defining moments that have shaped the plot of our stories. Some

Student Leadership

44 outstanding students served St Peter’s as Prefects in The 2020 Prefect team was as follows: 2020. Their leadership was important in a year of challenges and cancelled events. They served as positive role models, HEAD GIRL Sophie Waddell making a particular impact in the junior school, where many HEAD BOY Jamal Roberton were inspired by their positive example. DEPUTY HEAD GIRL Holly Williams

Campus Principal, Julie Small, led the Prefect training DEPUTY HEAD BOY Callum Prichard sessions held during the evenings throughout the year, HEADS OF HOUSES EXECUTIVE lockdown period excluded. Her dynamic and inclusive HANNA THORNTON presentation style, coupled with her knowledge of leadership Ally Sciascia Maddison Brown Shaye Retemeyer Anam Farrant best practice, ensured these sessions were engaging and relevant. Being a School Prefect meant students had CHANDLER SWEARS Annabelle McGuire Bella Illston responsibilities through various portfolio areas, but staff Lance Jones Jack McLean also believed that it was their responsibility to offer them training in order to build their leadership capabilities. All Year ACADEMIC CULTURAL PERFORMING ARTS 13 students were invited to attend these sessions so that PREFECTS PREFECTS PREFECTS Isabella Cleland Reeghan de Bono Annelise Bech they too could gain the benefits being offered to Prefects. Lucy Frengley Finn Hawkins Riley Jakeman A range of topics were covered, including the following: Jaden Kaempfe Kari Loveridge Samara Mockford Salonee Kumar Tony Paleti Stephen Ng • Approaches to leadership. Kieran Vollebregt Harrison Shaw Emily Parker • Leading challenging conversations. Ryan Wisnewski Tuhua Taikato-Litz Matt Wightman Steven Wang • Strength-based leadership, e.g. knowing how our character strengths enhance our teamwork. • Building teams.

Olivia Came Emma Butcher James Corbett Daniel Overington • Leadership for wellbeing, e.g. strategies to help with Charli Miller Francesca Pollock juggling several responsibilities. Reid Shackleton Brianna Read Tyler Tapper Liam Russell The Lead Deans provided regular fortnightly training Molly Simes sessions and operational meetings during lunch times. This training was based around the acronym: P – Presentation F – Fortitude R – Resilience E – Encouragement E – Empathy C – Courage T – Tactics

The year started in the usual way with Prefects leading in House Athletics and House Swimming Competitions, and the highlight of supporting their Year 13 students for the synchronised swimming event. These events were included amongst others in a successful Spirit Week. They then put on Leadership and Academic Assemblies. Until then, all was going according to plan, as per the school term calendar. Then lockdown.

That is when the Prefects came into their own, with several inspirational wellbeing video messages. The videos they posted and the activities they promoted, entertained and inspired the community. Since lockdown, Prefects have also contributed their leadership to the running and organisation of several events, including the Sports and Performing Arts Dinners, and the Graduates Dinner and Dance to replace the twice cancelled School Ball. Furthermore, each Prefect portfolio introduced themselves and their achievements through a PechaKucha style presentation in school assemblies. This made their leadership within the school community visible.

Thank you to the Prefects of 2020 for your leadership in this unprecedented year.

Ag/Hort Science and Agribusiness

2020 has been another exciting year in Agricultural and Horticultural Science, marked by the introduction of several new initiatives, allowing students to have more authentic learning opportunities.

The department has taken over the lease of unused land on Owl Farm in which several different crops have been established. This supports the curriculum in many different ways including; land use, soil science, pest control, climate, waterways, and data collection and analysis. These projects included the planting of 280 Pinus radiata seedlings to be grown and marketed as Christmas Trees in three years’ time. As well as planting these trees, students have been involved in weed control, measuring growth rates and pruning of these trees.

Another new, initiative has been the planting of 0.2 ha of sweetcorn which was kindly donated by Bradfields Contracting and PGG Wrightsons. In early February, there should be a bountiful harvest of sweetcorn. 3 In collaboration with the chemistry department, students investigated the concept of value adding on top of the primary industries. Not only did they plant and pick 80 Another2 focus for the department this year was to Lavender 'Grosso' plants, but they also extracted the essential engage more with Owl Farm.

Amongst other things, they were able to: weigh and record replacement heifer calves, and observe animals grazing, being milked, artificially inseminated, and dehorned at close quarters. Many thanks must go to Jo Sheridan, the Owl Farm Demonstration Manager and Tom Buckley, the Farm Manager for their incredible support of the department, and for making all of the above opportunities possible.

The school vineyards provided exceptional grapes this year, to enable Volcanic Hills winery in Rotorua to produce this year’s vintage of Blue Ruru wine.

Students from across the curriculum and year groups have been involved in bringing this wine to reality, for example:

• Year 9 and 10 Ag/Hort Science students have pruned the vines. • IB Chemistry have had the very important job of titration to determine the amount of pH and acid levels in the wine to determine the best time to pick. • Science classes used a refractometer to measure the brix (sugar) content in the grapes. • Design students developed the name, label and style 1 of the striking Blue Ruru bottle label. Ruru is the maori name for our native owl – the morepork, nodding to the St Peter’s Owl and the higher wisdom, learning, and inner knowing it proudly represents. • Earlier this year, students and staff volunteered to harvest the 2020 crop, collectively hand-picking 1.5 tonnes of grapes on a clear March morning. The bounty was delivered within 2 hours to Volcanic Hills Winery at the base of Mt Ngongotaha in Rotorua. There, winemaker Brent Park set about over the next four months to produce the Rose and Pinot Gris blends.

Business and Entrepreneurial Centre

Covid cut short a number of planned events for the Business and Entrepreneurial Centre, but in the face of this adversity a number of highlights were achieved. In lieu of the Business Breakfasts, two sponsors visited - Anna Mowbray from Zuru and Mike Cruickshank from Milford Asset Management. These two alumni regaled current students with exploits from the past, and characteristics needed for success in the future.

From the moment they landed in the upper sports field with a rather large helicopter, to the final chance of meeting and greeting, students lapped up as much information as they could.

The big event for the Business and Entrepreneurial Centre was the return of the Dragons’ Den competition in late Term 3 and early Term 4. With inspiration from entrepreneur and business commentator, Andrew Patterson, the students Luke Bouwer presents during Dragons' Den day completed a number of workshops before presenting their completed product before industry experts.

Digital Technology

In Digital Technology, 2020 saw the rollout of new standards at NCEA Level 2, and corresponding changes to the Year 12 Digital Technology programme. Students at this level did the Digital Common Assessment Task External Assessments for the first time, as well as a course focused on web development, and media. These students produced larger, more complex, and better designed websites in the past with this focus on longer term project work.

This year also had the largest ever class in International Baccalaureate Computer Science. A highly talented group, these students have raised the bar for each other in learning computer programming and system design and analysis.

The junior Digital Technology programme has been busy this year, with four groups of Year 9 students coming through and getting experience coding in a 3-Dimensional graphical environment, and a full class of Year 10 students doing the 1 full-year programme covering a range of different topics in Media, Computational Thinking, Data management, and Computer Science concepts.

Project work has been at the forefront in our department, with highlights including slick, window-driven interfaces to manage data at Year 13, eclectic and fun Arduino electronics projects at Year 11, and busy students pulling apart and putting together hardware in the networking room.

Unfortunately, learning became difficult if the WIFI crashed. However, this just encouraged me to rely on my friends. Lockdown has made me realise that it is best to just get the work done rather than procrastinate. Faith Thomas - Teacher Year 10 and 11 lessons began with a 10-minute hangout, gathering together for roll check in. I then shared my screen with a prepared PowerPoint that included visual exemplars and tasks broken down into lessons. Students who were confident could then leave, and those who needed to ask questions stayed. I kept the hangout open all period so they could dip in and out with questions or clarification. A large portion of the lesson was spent checking their google slides and adding feedback. This was particularly effective to encourage junior students. They loved the back-and-forth dialogue.

Yr 12 and 13 NCEA and IB had hangouts about twice a week as for juniors but many preferred emails for specific questions. They are used to working more independently from written tasks sheets, so my role tended to be time management and one-on-one Q and A. . 1 I was surprised and did enjoy how quickly junior students responded with short tasks and research. They were quicker than in the classroom context, and I will continue with these aspects being in google classroom.

Marking artwork was difficult in respect to the variation of quality of photos. Subtle shading was hard to assess. Some artwork when viewed as hardcopy were better and some worse. I found a large amount of time was spent e mailing and following up “absent” students with deans, parents and students.

Engaged students at junior and senior levels supported each other, shared their personal experiences at home, and there were stronger relationships with me and stronger trust. A lot more thank yous online, than I have in the classroom. Appreciation and kindness were very evident between each other (helping each other learn to use google classroom), and also towards me as their teacher. Many asked how I was in lockdown.

I discovered I am more able than I thought I was with new digital technology. This has given me more confidence. I have always believed in the importance of growing and strengthening teacher/student relationships, but now I value them even more highly.

Enhanced Learning

2020 has provided many opportunities for developing resilience, demonstrating flexibility, and applying creative thinking to solve complex problems. The Enhanced Learning team have risen to the challenge – adapting practices to meet the needs of all learners both while on-site at school, and through distance learning platforms as needed.

“I want to thank you especially for the help you gave me in the lockdown. I was really struggling, and your support made a massive difference.” Year 12 IB Student Twelve Learning Assistants (LAs) work alongside students and teachers in classrooms across the school. In response to student feedback, the team trialed a new approach to working with students in years 11–13 this year. Each student is assigned an LA as their key contact person, and LAs use their timetables flexibly to support students as and when needed across all curriculum subjects. Three teachers lead the department across the school, with Judy Campbell the key contact in Prep, Debbie Miller overseeing years 9–10 – including the very important transition from Year 8 to 9, and Lisa Smith with oversight of students in years 11–13. 1 The Enhanced Learning goal for improved practice this year was to ensure that all learning support was provided in ways Enabling learners to have access to fair assessment also that strengthened student independence. An understanding continues to be a large focus. Using student and teacher of the ‘I do, We do, You do’ approach has been guiding the 1:1 feedback and school-based assessments, the LAs identify work with students. In this model, the LA demonstrates the where students have barriers, and remove these to ‘level the new learning, works together with the student to practice playing field’ and ensure students are assessed for what they the new learning, and then moves away and allows the can do.

Fashion Technology

This year the Fashion Technology programme faced the unique challenge of the Covid lockdown that kept students away from the classroom for Term 2. The students, however, showed excellent resilience and continued their learning to complete their projects.

Year 7s were introduced to the basics of sewing and the processes of the technology subject. Year 9s learnt the process of designing to a brief; creating patchwork blankets. They also learnt technical skills on the overlockers by making hoodies. Year 10s started the year creating kimono robes in fresh summer colours, then choose their own PJ or skirt commercial pattern to complete, extending their knowledge of sewing techniques and equipment.

Seniors use NCEA achievement standards as a way to explore concepts of their choice, through the technology process. 2 They develop a brief that will guide their project, and by creating samples and carrying out tests, bring to life an outcome that is fit for purpose. Students this year have been particularly interested in creating their own textiles. One Year 13 student felted her own wool for an 80s inspired over-sized coat. A Year 12 student made a bold and unique textile by taking scraps from other students’ work and quilting them between layers of clear PVC.

Fashion Design teacher, Charlotte Remmerswaal, went on maternity leave at the end of Term 3, giving birth to her son soon after. Caitie Simpson will be teaching in the Fashion Technology classroom during this time.

Food Technology

Food Technology and Food and Nutrition continue to be very popular throughout the junior and senior school.

Junior Food follows the department’s philosophy of learning through practical experience. Topics in Year 9 include; food safety, healthy plate, and creative baking. The healthy plate unit involves students learning about meal planning and the importance of eating whole foods and seasonal produce. Using planning tools, the students plan and prepare a pasta meal that includes food from the four food groups and a substantial serving of a colourful, seasonal vegetable. This is an assessed unit that all of the students enjoy.

Creative baking (with a healthy twist) is another hands-on 2 topic that gives students the opportunity to bake both sweet and savoury products. They then create their own recipe that is nutrient rich, low in fat, sugar and salt, but still tastes delicious.

During the autumn, Year 9 enjoyed the company of Mr Kilgour’s agriculture class, when they joined together in a cross-curricular event to celebrate Harvest Festival. Mr Kilgour’s group provided the homegrown tomatoes and chillies, whilst Mrs Fearnley’s group made the pizza dough. It was a fun activity, with a final display of pizzas and garden produce. Reverend Bennett joined the group, and gave thanks for the bountiful harvest.

The Year 10 programme continues with the theme of gaining practical experience whilst learning about diet related wellbeing. New this year was the calcium-rich unit, teaching 3 students the importance of calcium in the teenager’s diet. Students prepared a variety of calcium-rich recipes from both plant and animal sources, then faced the challenge of creating their own recipe that met the requirements of the given brief.

Barista training was once again offered to Year 12 and 13 Food Technology students. Neville Morgan from Espresso Stuff conducted two workshops, where students undertook training and assessment. Between workshops, students honed their skills by making coffee on a regular basis, under supervision. All students achieved to the standard and were awarded the Level 2 Barista Certificate, which also gained them four credits towards their NCEA.

Academy sessions were based at the Cricket Pavilion, Horton Gym, and the oval - along with online learning during lockdown. The Pavilion is the iconic home of cricket at St Peter’s and academy students are continuously immersed in the history and traditions of the game within the school.

This focus targets the development of players both on and off the field.

Academy sessions at all levels focus on developing fundamental skill sets and physical attributes needed for rugby, whilst instilling a sense of fun and enjoyment in the student’s chosen sport. This is a great option for aspiring young rugby players as it is a curriculum option.

As well as on-field skill sessions with Mr Perry, the students also take part in regular Strength and Conditioning sessions with Mr Todd Barker. Through the ongoing fitness screening of these young men, results show that it produces harder working, better educated, and better prepared young athletes. 1 During Term 4, the focus of both the Year 9 and 10 class was established by the students. The common goal was to continue improving fitness levels, catch and pass skills, and to develop the class culture. Small changes led to huge improvements and saw a real team vibe established among the group.

Another positive aspect of Term 4 was that students were able to enjoy cross-code training with a variety of other academies, which also helps build strong relationships within the school community.

A famous quote of Nelson Mandela states that “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart”. At St Peter’s, students continue to have many options of how to increase their capacity for connection and communication; choosing from French, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Te Reo Māori, and English as an Additional Language.

Being able to communicate, being able to connect with others, is the core principle that sits behind all that this faculty does. All language students, both at junior and senior level, demonstrated their capacity to learn their chosen language in any situation, whether in a virtual or face to face learning environment. Activities ranged from online quizzes, to conversations and speeches, to old fashioned letters in the post, to understanding Japanese culture through art and masks.

2020 has certainly been a challenging but successful year as the Library, like other faculties, adapted with the new circumstances that Covid brought with it. During lockdown, a number of Library google classrooms were established, with online activities for the Junior English classes who normally come into the Library each week. A number of fun optional reading challenges were set for the students such as: taking a photo reading to a pet, building a reading fort, and escaping from a digital literary classroom with literary clues to solve. Many students really enjoyed these activities and sent in some stunning reading photos that were shared online with the school community.

The Library continued to grow its collection of print and digital resources to support teaching, learning, wellbeing, 1 and reading for pleasure. An eBook collection of wellbeing books was added to the digital collection of resources as well as some new wellbeing magazines. The school had outstanding success competing in the Waikato Regional Kid’s Lit Quiz with the two Prep teams finishing 3rd and 6th from 38 teams.

Ms Pritchard joined the Library team at the start of the year as the Library Administrator, and with her creative talents, immediately made an impact with some very eye-catching library book displays.

The programme starts, in Year 12 with students learning to roll a kayak in the pool and finishes at the end of Year 13 with students gaining their Padi Open Water Dive Licence. During this time, students are encouraged to explore a range of challenging activities and environments.

These activities enhance interpersonal skills, such as co- operation, decision making, and leadership. Outdoor Education is a very popular subject, with four classes over the two year levels.

Highlights:

• Whitewater kayaking on the Mohaka River. • Bush survival along Lake Tarawera. • Mountain biking in the Redwoods. 1 • Leadership Camp, gaining Outdoor First Aid through Peak Safety. • Student-led three-day Tongariro National Park trip. • Padi Scuba diving open water dive licence. • Coast Guard courses, VHF, and Day Skipper Certificate.

Students shared the following personal highlights from the programme.

• The ability to learn new practical skills. • Finding new passions in the outdoors, like kayaking. • Learning valuable life skills and understanding leadership styles. • Largely expanding their opinion of the world and creating new experiences.

• Challenging/pushing themselves to keep up with others. 2

Curriculum Drama Junior Drama has seen students focus on problem solving, building ensembles, and creating believable characters in a variety of contexts. Year 10s also experimented with digital ‘diaries’ and creating costumes, whilst Year 9 focused on the difference between devising and working with scripts.

2020 saw Drama take on a new ‘digital’ life, through viewed and created performances. In turn, this developed new opportunities for students, and they rose to the occasion. NCEA Level 2 and 3 were fortunate to perform a New Zealand play, Remain in Light – a full length production based in a post-apocalyptic setting, where the world loses something it otherwise would take for granted: light. It is also an insight 1 into commodities and human selfishness that arises with abuse of power. The students approached this production with maturity and a strong sense of ensemble awareness and support.

In IB theatre students performed an array of controversial pieces, including work based on theorists Rudolf Laban and Antonin Artaud, collaborating together to present a piece based around the idea of ‘social isolation’.

Through dynamic participation and looking at things through different perspectives, students continue to build on self-confidence, self-management, and making meaningful connections with others and the wider world.

Product Design - Wood and Metal

This year has been a roller-coaster ride for the Product Design: Wood & Metal students, working against the clock to meet deadlines, only able to utilise the workshop facilities when in school. They have worked tirelessly to produce products that met a specific design brief and stakeholder’s requirements. Learners have adapted their ideas with the ever-changing timeframes, but have still produced work of a high standard.

Senior projects included: black steel and reclaimed Rimu coffee tables, oak bar leaners, aluminum roof racks, surf board stands, fire pits, BBQs, bike racks, drift trikes, bedside tables, Kauri dining tables, and compactable storage using a range of reclaimed timbers like Fijian Yaka, mahogany, and Kwila. Most projects have incorporated a level of computer aided design, using the laser cutter to engrave and manufacture ideas, including living: hinges to make a Ukulele, slots and tabs to make flat pack furniture, and various inlays using Paua shell.

Junior projects included: vacuum formed laser cut clocks, copper critters, pewter pendants incorporating Māori designs, brass hammers, gaming table, and chairs using a range of mixed materials.

Students have engaged and challenged themselves to attempt complex procedures within their designs by making use of different hand tools, machinery, and equipment.

Science

I never teach my pupils. I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn. Albert Einstein’s far-sighted pedagogical approach to the teaching of Science was never better tested than during the course of 2020. The students and staff of the 32 unique courses offered in the Science Faculty rose to the challenges imposed by remote learning and the subsequent return to the classroom in a manner that exceeded all expectations. It is a testament to their resilience, motivation, and high work ethic that students have consistently met the benchmarks contained within an un-disrupted year, and in numerous cases, exceeded them significantly.

This is particularly well evidenced by the continuing strong results that St Peter’s achieved in the large number of co- curricular opportunities that supports students undertaking competitions. These include: the Biology Olympiad, the Brain Bee challenge, the NIWA Waikato Science Fair, the NZ Engineering Science competition, the ICAS Science competition, and the Rotary National Science and Technology Forum. Some examples of student success that have been recognised in external competitions and events include:

Dance

1 Beatz Beatz is a Year 7 to 13 Hip Hop dance troupe, choreographed and taught by Miriana Wetere-Ryder. Miriana trained at the Palace studio and her experience is well recognised in the Waikato. St Peter’s has been very fortunate to retain her teaching expertise for the troupe again this year. Performance opportunities for this group of 33 students have been limited to only one, however any opportunity to perform increases the dancer’s confidence and performance experience on stage. Their single event was at the Aspire Dance Showcase, where they performed Run the World, showcasing a variety of cultures uniting together to fight the battles faced today. This troupe constantly pushes outside their comfort zone, whilst having fun. Dynamite

This year Dynamite evolved to include junior year levels and 2 an audition as part of the selection process. This meant some top dancers across Year 9–13 were selected to perform in this troupe.

Fusion Fusion is an enthusiastic Year 9 and 10 dance troupe led by Laura Harnett. This year they have enjoyed learning contemporary and lyrical dance styles. This troupe, made up of students who have a range of dance ability and experience, were challenged with the help of Laura’s expertise.

This year many events were cancelled, and as a result Dance NZ Made was judged via video submission. Fusion submitted their dance Gooey and received some very valuable and positive feedback from the judges. This dance followed a dream state of fluid movement, odd shapes, and illusory surroundings. Dancers illuminated the kaleidoscope-looking images imagined and moved through in one’s dreams. Fusion offers our students a dance environment to have fun and enjoyment whilst learning new skills.

Matrixx Matrixx Hip Hop dance troupes started off with the usual enthusiasm and dedication expected from highly capable and diligent dancers. Two competitive groups, of nine students each, were formed after an audition took place earlier in the year. Leeza Vincent from Imperious Dance Company was welcomed as choreographer. Leeza brought a wealth of knowledge, experience, and an incredible Hip Hop resume both as a dancer and a coach.

6am trainings twice a week, and intensive workshops leading up to performances, did not deter these two groups’ enthusiasm. Their commitment to the trainings and their dance group has been well commended. Leeza, a perfectionist in polishing the final product, taught the students about the importance of perfect practice making perfect performance. Every move has a start, an end, and a purpose.

Unfortunately, this group, among many others, did not get to perform at a competition due to the restrictions placed in different lockdowns. However, this did not stop the groups from training and dancing to their full potential, as well as learning different genres.

Matrixx said goodbye to four Year 13 dancers who had displayed great leadership skills over their time at the school, and were wonderful role models to the younger students. 3

Prep Revolutionize Prep Revolutionize are an all-comers dance troupe for Year2 7 and 8 students. The dancers have been ably taught by the talented Erin Chester, in the art of acro/lyrical/ contemporary performance. It has been an exciting year, despite new performance mediums that have required an adaptive approach. The troupe performed in the Prep Showcase, Aspire Dance Showcase, and their dance video was submitted for the NZMade Dance Competition. They achieved the place of 2nd Runner Up in that competition, for their piece ‘Green’, with honourable mention for choreography.

An initiative started in 2019, Prep Strings aims to give all Year 7 students the opportunity to trial learning either violin or cello as part of their Performing Arts curriculum. After a few weeks of in- class playing, students are invited to join the Prep Strings group that runs during Cultural lunchtime. Led by string tutor Melody Gumbley, 18 students continued to grow their skills in a group setting during 2020.

The highlight of the year was the annual performance at the Prep Performing Arts Concert in Term 3, which brought together seasoned players from the 2019 cohort, with 2 new players, to perform a selection of pieces, including Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy”.

The 2020 theme was focused around Kiwiana, featuring Slice of Heaven by Dave Dobbyn for the Full House competition. The Junior House competition required a song to be chosen from post-2000 New Zealand songs and the Senior House competition focused on pre-2000. The House Rock competition takes place in the evening, requiring that each group put together a two-song set. This was a wonderful evening filled with talented musicians performing hits such as Bene’s Supalonely and Che Fu’s Misty Frequencies to a very appreciate and energetic audience.

The House Leaders, Year 12 and 13 student helpers, and staff, all did a fantastic job in leading, organising, and driving the commitment to the day. Each and every person who was involved should be incredibly proud of what they achieved.

Senior Boys Basketball This year was about rebuilding after losing senior players and three Year 11 and 12 starters. A good turnout of boys registered for the trials back in Term 1, but with the loss of experience, the new players gelled together well and learnt the team offensive and defensive plays. The goal was to cement a place in the Waikato Secondary School Premier Reserve Grade and build the team’s confidence and experience. Despite the eventfulness of the year and limited competition time, the boys gained a lot of experience growing both on and off the court.

The focus then turned to trying to stay fit – for the return to school and play late in Term 2.

After a couple of early grading games, the team were underway in the WSSBL. This team battles with Hamilton Girls High School every year, and 2020, was no exception. After a first-round loss in Term 3, by 3 points, the girls re-assessed, regathered, and reloaded. The final of this competition against HGHS was a battle from start to finish, but for the 6th time in 7 years, St Peter’s came out as champions of the WSSBL Senior Premier Girls competition.

A quick trip to Wellington, in what would have been tournament week, was the next big event on the cards for this team.

Junior Girls Basketball We were fortunate enough, after a Covid-delayed start to begin our basketball competition in the latter stages of Term 2.

Reclaiming the WSSBL winning banner for 2020, was going to be a big ask for a new and inexperienced team, BUT they rose to the challenge, peaking at just the right time to beat HGHS in the penultimate game of the season. A Kaylah Waihi, 2-point play right on the buzzer, dashed HGHS’s hopes in a very torrid finale. After two earlier losses to HGHS in the season, St Peter’s were asked to dig deep, play without fear, give everything they had and most importantly to work together. Every player made a massive contribution in this game, both on the floor and from the bench and they retained their champion status.

Ms Arjomandi and Toha Kemp worked with purpose and under Ms Walker’s guidance throughout Term 2 and 3 to get this team ready. The hard work they put in paying off as every player who stuck through the season, learned lots and developed their skill and knowledge base. There is some real talent in the junior girls ranks.

Well done Junior Girls – hanging another banner on the gym wall is never an easy task. 2

1 Colts XI Cricket The Colts XI had a very successful season with both player development and performance results. The team consisted of a good mix of the Year 9 and 10 students, who found success in Term 1 and continued at the beginning of Term 4.

In Term 1 the team travelled to Gisborne to compete in the Northern Districts Cricket Association Colts tournament, as part of the New Zealand Cricket Junior Secondary Schools competition. The team won four games out of five and narrowly missed out on the national Gillette Cup. The team defeated Gisborne Boys High School, St Paul’s Collegiate School, Whangarei Boys' High School, and Hamilton Boys' High School.

In their Saturday competition, the Colts recorded three wins and two losses before the season was cut short. James Thomas led the way with the bat, being the team’s top run scorer, followed closely by Xavier Bell. George Harris, Ryan Harvey, and Flynn Morey led the bowling attack, whilst Cameron O’Leary was a significant member - proving his value as a positive wicket keeper/batsman. 2 The team was led by all-rounder Archie Louden, who was a significant member of the team and led from the front each week.

The Colts were successful in developing a positive team environment, and providing opportunities for all players on and off the field.

A big thank you goes to Russell Bell and Richard Jacobsen for their guidance in Term 1. The Year 10 Colts’ members are now looking forward to adding value to the senior cricket at St Peter’s over the next few years.

Held on a popular St Peter’s campus course, pre-entries and capped races to ensure numbers were limited, set the scene for some great racing. Running for their clubs, most St Peter’s runners finished in the top ten in their age group with some impressive race times. Boh Ritchie won the U14 girls race in convincing style, Emily Bennett fourth, and Bronwen Rees- Jones in seventh. In his first major regional race, Henry Smith 1 placed third in the Boys U14 event, with Nick Greaney a close fifth. Jemima Antoniazzi, who is coming back into form after an injury, ran strong at the start to finish second in the U18 race, Annalies Kalma fifth, and Mia Fletcher sixth.

A small team of St 2 Peter’s runners headed south to test themselves against the country’s best runners in their age groups. Running for their club or region, Boh Ritchie was first in the U14 event; well clear of the rest of the field for gold. In her first National event, this was an outstanding race from the talented 13-year old. Getting your first National medal is always special and it was great her St Peter’s training buddies were around to support and celebrate.

Hayden Waddell was well prepared and implanted a great race plan to finish with a strong kick to take silver in the U16 race. Commitment to training and working on all areas of his physical preparation, Hayden has improved immensely from last year in cross country running.

Charli Miller was in a class of her own in the U20 field, leading from start to finish and running solo as she extended her lead. In her last year at Secondary School, Charli is hitting some strong form and this will bode well for her future.

Other athletes performing well and all finishing in the top 10–20 were Will Taylor, Letizia Hay, Mia Fletcher, and Georgie- Rose Boyd.

In Year 7 and 8 there were two boys, and two girls' teams, three junior boys’ teams, and six senior teams.

The 1st XI boys and girls had very successful seasons, the 1st XI boys made St Peter’s history with back-to-back Waikato secondary school titles, and the 1st XI girls won the Waikato Secondary schools title and challenge shield. There were two second place finishes for the development team and the junior boys’ blue team, which was an outstanding achievement.

A huge thanks to all concerned.

1st XI Boys A history-making season in more ways than one. A global pandemic never seen before meant safety was a top priority. Pre-season was going well, then there was the national lockdown. Remote learning, fitness work from home and video calls 3x a week working on season goals, checking in to see if everyone was ok, and lots of whiteboard work was required, to at least get some understanding of how the team was going to play once back at school.

The team worked their socks off during lockdown and came back fitter than they had ever been. The season was shortened; no nationals, no knockout cup, just a 10-game league season. However with what was happening around the world, the team were happy just to get some games in. Football 1st Boys 2020

There was a fantastic season, which saw the development of various mental and core group of girls who came to almost every game, and it technical skills across the whole team. Often playing with was great to end the season on a high with a decisive win. injuries, few substitutes, and teams older and much bigger Thanks to coaches Brooke Kilmister and Chris Ryan! the boys; they demonstrated sportsmanship and resilience as a unit. A big thank you to Dean Steel and Peter Gregory. Junior Boys Yellow Gathering the junior yellow side at the start of the season, was a slow process, as initial signatories had chosen another sport instead. However, a number of boarders who had played little or no football before pitched in to build the team. Their willingness to get stuck in and learn a little bit about the game was instrumental in getting the season started.

Treye Geater captained the side for the majority of the season, and was very reliable in marshalling the defensive line. At times, the untidy back line allowed for some simple goals conceded, but each one was a learning experience. Improvement in defending corners and moving the team out quickly was evident throughout the short season. The boys on the team will have learned the value of fitness and readiness on match day, as there were times when they faced sides who were hungrier for the ball, or just faster paced than some of the St Peter’s players. In any case, the key learnings were clear - working as a unit, communicating 1 with one another, and moving the ball simply and quickly. Reef Collier was one of the team’s most dangerous and diligent players, always giving the opposition something to 3rd XI Boys worry about. He captained the final game. Carter Jones-Hall pushed himself harder in every game to This team ended up in a very tough grade, with the results get the tackle in or break down the opposition play.

This allowed for a few of the senior players to take on leadership roles to drive the team as a whole. The stand outs were the discipline shown by the boys, and the consistent ability for the team to turn the tables at halftime and play a 1 3rd XI Girls 2 Blair Saunders better standard of football in the second half. The best game of the season was a come-from-behind win, seemingly against all odds, with the Hillcrest High School team. Most importantly, the team thoroughly enjoyed the season and always took a positive approach to the game and the post- match analysis.. Special mention to captain Jack Nielsen, who looked after trainings and ably led the team. Junior Boys Blue The St Peter’s Year 9 and 10 blue team had a great season. Their technical ability and willingness to learn was brilliant, rewarding them in a style of play that was entertaining and extremely effective, leaving the team unbeaten in the season.

A team strength throughout the season was their on-field communication skills, with Coach Brad Whitworth reporting that it was one of the things he admired most, as it's rare to find at this age. Team members demonstrated individual leadership as required to agree a game plan, run a warm up session, or manage in-play substitutions. 2

Year 7 and 8 Gold The Year 7 and 8 girls gold football team played every game with enthusiasm and a smile on their faces. All the girls’ skills have developed significantly over the past year and they’re now looking to pass and move the ball wide whenever possible. The progress seen throughout the year can be attributed to the dedication the entire team showed. It would be very unusual for them not to have a full team at every training session and every game.

Golf

For the last few years, the golf tag line ‘Golf for Sport, Golf for Business, Golf for Life’ has been the overriding map for the growth and development of the St Peter’s programmes; understanding that golf holds a different meaning for each and every student. Whilst there is always a good crop of aspirational golfers, who aspire to joining the professional ranks, for the vast majority of students golf is, or will be, a secondary sport that will continue beyond their school years, a lifelong leisure/wellbeing activity, or simply a useful business tool for later in life. Despite 2020 being a difficult year for many, numbers have exploded from 123 at the start of the year to 161 by year end. 2020 Highlights

Term 2 Students returned keener than ever; lockdown appeared to have had a very positive effect on student interest, with a large number of new signups. This growth likely related to golf being one of the few activities permitted at Level 3.

A key feature of the restart was the sanitisation of all the equipment. Shared clubs, the Titleist ProV1 range balls, and the ball buckets had never been so clean, day in and day out.

The long mid-winter end of term break provided the first opportunity for the return of competition, and they came thick and fast throughout the 3 week “break”.

St Peter’s girls Ing Iadpluem, Zahraa Bester, and Suwanna McPhee kicked it off in fine style, competing in the Ruth Middleton Memorial Cup: over 54 holes at the Matamata Golf Club. This is a New Zealand Golf National Order of Merit and attracted a full-strength women’s field from all around the Suwanna McPhee and Zahraa Bester practicing country. After the first two rounds, Year 11 student, Zahraa, found herself lying second, a shot behind the defending champion. Her second round 66 was a record-equalling Despite the cancellation of Winter Tournament week, best gross on the Matamata course for women. In the final St Peter’s golfers had local events to play.

End of term Holidays saw Zahraa, Ben, and Heart all represent Waikato in the annual National Junior Interprovincial tournament (Ing, Rhys, George, and Suwanna were all unavailable for selection).

Congratulations to Ing, Rhys, and Ben for being selected to represent the Waikato Eagles Golf Society at their National event. Unfortunately this was subsequently postponed due to Covid.

Term 4 Numbers have continued to grow!! A record high of 161 students are engaged in golf across all coaching programmes.

Year 9 PE golf takes centre stage at the Golf Academy. Every Year 9 student experiences golf in PE with 4 sessions, weather permitting, making use of the mini course set up on the driving range area. This gives students a taste of real golf and introduces them to the ambrose team format, which they may at some point in their future be invited to play in at a charity or corporate outing. It gives the staff a real buzz to see students develop some skill and grow their confidence in their ability to move the stupid little white object through the air, and in the general direction of the target. Golf for Life.

End of term will see the squad compete in the NZ Golf National Age Group Championships at Ngaruawahia Golf Club. The St Peter’s team will be ready to go and should produce some excellent golf, that may result in some more 2 notable achievements.

Hockey

1st X1 Boys Hockey The 2020 year for the 1st X1 boys’ hockey team began with great enthusiasm and promise, following the team’s first place at the 2019 National Secondary Schools’ Olympic Sticks Tournament. With new, younger members welcomed into the 1st X1 boys’ and coach, Mr Chris Dowdle’s committed and talented leadership, the year ahead looked to be exciting. Thus, the cancellation, due to Covid, of the first tranche of games and the New Zealand Secondary School tournament, where St. Peter’s were playing up a grade, was disappointing for all. Nonetheless, Mr Dowdle pushed on with trainings and skills lessons, to ensure the boys remained engaged, fit, and competitive.

A highlight for the 1st X1 boys’ (and all hockey players at St. Hockey 1st XI Boys 2020 Peter’s) was a full-on training session with members of the Back row: Travis Funnell, Tyler Fraser, Will Montgomerie, Black Sticks, who not only imparted their skills, but inspired Jean-Luc Gofton, Travis Miers the boys to dream to succeed at the next level with their 2nd row: Samuel Minett, Ryan Wisnewski, Alexander Kenel, hockey.

The opportunity to play teams from other towns and cities always provides players with the opportunity to not just grow skills, but to make friends within the wider hockey community. Hopefully this will return next year. The boys played some very talented hockey - proving themselves competent against schools with hockey academies, to finish third overall.

Two boys, Jean-Luc Gofton and Jack McLean, made the Waikato Under 18 team. At the end-of-year awards, Jack, who has been captain of the 1st X1 boys’ hockey for three years, was presented with the award for the greatest contribution to St Peter’s 1st X1 boys’ hockey.

Jack and Ryan Wisnewski were acknowledged and congratulated for playing 100 plus games for the 1st X1 – a 1 remarkable achievement.

With many of the 1st X1 boys leaving St Peter’s at the end of this year, the last game played, with Mr Haines as step in coach, (due to the arrival of a daughter for Mr Dowdle and his wife), was tinged with mixed emotions. The game was well-played, with a good win, and then tinged with the reality of farewell. Under Mr Dowdle, and support from Mr Haines, the 1st X1 boys was melded into a team of mates, who respected each other, who knew what it was to play and be part of a team, who enjoyed the nature of competitive sport, supporting each other through losses and celebrating successes gleefully – usually with McDonald’s. In the end it 2 was another great year for 1st X1 boys’ hockey at St Peter’s.

2nd XI Boys The 2nd XI boys were a very young side who have gained much experience from the season, under the skilful guidance of coach Sam Ashton, who we thank for his input and effort over the year.

The boys showed their ability to work well together and were very focused and motivated. Trainings were well attended and displayed the boys’ commitment to the team and enthusiasm created by Sam. Captained by Ben Westwood this season, the team benefitted from having him as a role model for the junior boys, providing excellent leadership.

The season highlight was winning the Waikato Hockey Gordon Cup division; a great achievement for such a young team. More importantly, the boys’ sportsmanship in all games was outstanding. Connor Jones was awarded top goal scorer for the grade.

The team developed well throughout the season and will provide a very strong platform for the school for the next few years.

Lacrosse

Lacrosse has continued to develop at St Peter’s in 2020. A disrupted start to the training and trials in March set the team back briefly, and the girls kept up their enthusiasm and skills over lockdown, which set the team up to start the season again in May.

Farewelling eleven Year 13 players from the first team last year, allowed some fantastic young talent to emerge in their place. Fortunately, Alumna Renee Edge was back in New Zealand from her college placement in America and assisted with coaching the Premier team.

The Premier team had a couple of good wins in their early games. A very tough game against Cambridge High School early on in the season saw them improve immensely, and with the experience gained putt them in great stead to go on to beat both Hillcrest High School and Sacred Heart Girls’ College to finishing 4th in the Waikato Secondary School 1 League. Led by Kendall Turner, the team’s top goal scorer of the season, this was a tremendous achievement from a young team where half were Year 11 or younger.

The second and third teams had an enjoyable season and showed great improvement throughout. Another influx of new players in these teams, in particular the third team, saw the girls form friendships with their new team mates. All players showed a positive attitude, making them a delight to coach. The team bonded early in the year, and great friendships were formed. It was encouraging to see the blossoming leadership skills of Georgia Devcich, the team’s committed and always encouraging Captain. Ngapuhi Kraus (Co-Captain), was always there with timely encouraging words for the team. A special mention and thank you needs to go to Ella Veitch, who helped with coaching and umpiring the games. Her contribution and commitment to the sport of lacrosse was outstanding.

2nd XV The 2nd XV rugby team had a competitive season this year. Despite obvious Covid related disruptions and a few injuries, the team were able to maintain some consistency and achieve good results.

The league was quite closely contested. With one game being cancelled, St Peter’s played a total of six matches; winning 4 and losing 2. The boys played an attractive style of rugby and were willing to throw the ball around and run it from all over the park.

Highlights that should be mentioned are: the win over a very physical Hamilton Boys' High School team, while being a man down for the majority of the game. Secondly, the performance against St John’s that saw St Peter’s clinch the game in the last movement after at least ten phases of play.

Playing against a team that had not lost a game all season was always going to be a daunting task, and unfortunately on the day the home side was too strong. St Peter’s put together a respectable performance in the first half, only being down 14–12 but eventually the team were outmuscled by the stronger St Paul’s side.

Standout forwards during the season were: Kees Butler, Murdoch Dawes, Paraire Goodman Hui, and Hugo Shaw, who demonstrated a high level of intensity on the field all year. Hugo and Paraire regularly found holes in the opposition’s line, and often linked up to make huge positional gains for the team. These boys, along with the rest of the forwards, consistently fronted up around the rucks and mauls and set a strong platform for the backs to receive the quick ball. Flynn Morey, Benji Bell, and Xavier Bell were all outstanding in the backline for the season, revealing their potential for attacking with flair and being defensively very strong players. Anton Drnasin and James McGuire were the most improved players, becoming vital members of the team. Finally, special mention must go to Fergus Muir, who played out of position all year in support of his teammates and the team. U14 Troy Tierney lifted by Hugo Shaw (back) and Anton Drnasin

It is important to note that the positive attitude of this team was outstanding in terms of fair play and never giving up. On a number of occasions, this was noted by the referee.

This character and determination would set the precedent for the rest of the season, as their main aim was to simply improve week-by-week. Scores were immaterial. What was paramount was skill execution, keeping to their structure and showing character no matter what the circumstances.

The coaches were extremely proud of the St Peter’s prep boys. Teamwork and togetherness was evident in each and every match, regardless of whether one of the starting 15 or a reserve, due to make an impact later in the game.

Triathlon/Duathlon

St Peter’s Triathletes Podium at New Zealand Secondary Schools Outstanding results by the school’s two top triathletes, Charli Miller and James Corbett, with their podium finishes in the Under 19 New Zealand Secondary Schools triathlon in Wanaka this year. In the most competitive grade, Charli had some work to do coming out of the swim off the lead pack. Her strength on the bike and an exceptional run moved her from fourth place to the gold medal position, with plenty of gap between the other podium finishes.

James was amongst the lead pack for all disciplines and worked hard to cut into the winner’s lead pack on the bike and run. With strong competition in a competitive field, he was able to secure bronze in the Under 19 event. Kane Foster, also attending his first major triathlon championship, competed strongly, as did Courtney Elliott, and Oliver Galpin.

James was also a member of the New Zealand Junior Triathlon Team that won the Australian Mixed Relay Champs, at the Oceania Triathlon in Tasmania, Australia. Alex Brackenbury was also a member of that four-person team - a wonderful achievement to have two St Peter’s triathletes in the winning team. 2

Alex and James both competed exceptionally well in the individual events. James had a great race coming fifth and Alex stepping up to the Under 19s coming 11th.

Volleyball

Term 1 saw a strong senior girls team enter the Waikato Senior School competition. The experience of the players really showed their ability to hold composure during close games. With the help of Jeroslav Tamala, St Peter’s setters gained some great knowledge to add to their game and create more opportunities for the hitters. The addition of Most Valuable Player, Breeje Schuler, brought an attacking play that lifted the team and made them more competitive. Unfortunately, the season ended due to Covid and the Waikato competition, as well as the senior nationals, were unable to proceed.

As the junior season commenced towards the end of Term 3, a high number of students signed up for the sport, which resulted in three junior teams - one boys and two girls.

The hitting power of Charlie Stewart, Johanson Tamala, and Kash Farmer was crucial in tight games, while Maraekaiti Nepia’s ability to read the play saved the team.

Both girls teams made consistent growth as the season progressed. Junior girls Red, coached by Scarlett Glover, Lucy Sidwell, and Breeje Schuler, started slowly but finished their season strongly with back to back wins. There were some standout performances from Stellie Lepper, Mahina Yates, Bridget McGirr, and Milana Tapper, showing a strong group of volleyballers coming up into the senior division. The Junior girls Blue team, coached by Tay Barry and Molly Given, did Volleyball Junior Boys 2020 well in their division. Most of their team having never played before.

Morris House Y7–9 Boys Boarding

Firstly, I would like to acknowledge the resilience of our International students: Marcus Au Yong, Andrew Du, Jeongguk Son, Dongguk Son, Heart Iadpluem, Ryoma MacDonald, and Madrid Batsomboon. In what has been a trying year for all of us, these young men have shown great fortitude, flexibility, and adaptability. I have very much admired their commitment to their education and St Peter’s.

I would like to take the time to thank our Senior Prefects, who are such outstanding young men: Hamish Griffin, Zach Judkins, Harvey Williams, Quinn Cricket, Marcus Au Yong, and Brodie Leef. It is always a big ask for boys of their age to leave their peers in the senior houses and come down and look after the youngest boarders in the school. I very much admire them for this, and have truly appreciated their 1 work throughout the year. For Hamish and Harvey, who are moving to Broadhurst, I wish you both all the best for next year. Congratulations to Brodie Leef who will be Head of House for Morris 2021.

2020 Highlights There have been a number of significant events that have stood out for me this year, all of which displayed a real a sense of brotherhood. The very creditable top three finish at the annual Top House Competition, was simply outstanding. The boys really punched above their weight and showed tremendous House spirit. Another highlight that will forever be etched in my memory as a House Director happened at 2 the Prep School Swimming Sports. Watching the Morris Prep boys cheer Jeongguk Son on during his 50m race, was heart- warming to say the least. Jeongguk was new to swimming, but his Morris brothers willed him on to finish his race. Upon finishing, they greeted him with high fives and hugs. It was a true display of House culture.

It has been great to the see the Year 9s detach from the need for check-offs. These boys have got themselves into a routine and have developed sound self-management skills. Instead of having a staff member or Prefect hover over them, these young men have taken ownership and responsibility for their rooms and jobs. With only a couple of speedbumps, the Year 9s displayed a sound understanding of the Morris House expectations and routines, which will hopefully set them up for their future years in boarding. 3 I wish the Year 9s all the best for their journeys through St Peter’s boarding.

What a journey 2020 memories and friendships I've made in this house will be has been! At times it felt like no one had any idea what was what I cherish most from my St Peter’s journey.

Emma Butcher Head of House 2020

There have been some great memories and friendships made this year. Despite Covid, and all that ensued around that, several outings were still able to occur, including the Confinement Escape Rooms, Laser tag, outdoor movie nights, Mini Golf, Mazes, Hotpools at the Mount, strawberry picking, bush walking, shopping, and many other day activities. The girls also made the most of the superb facilities at St Peter’s, utilising the pool, gym, and grounds, together with supporting as many of the cultural events put on by the school throughout the year as possible. The regular dorm events were popular – angel week and clean weeks, and challenges where the girls' creativity and dramatic skills really came to the fore. The girls also enjoyed the ‘freaky forest’ experience, where Morris joined in to celebrate 1 Halloween. The year concluded with a celebration dinner at The Boatshed cafe, an event enjoyed by all.

It is always so lovely to see the huge growth and development happen for the young girls, as they embrace life at St Peter’s, and in boarding. The girls can certainly take pride in how far they have come, and have faith in how far they can go. In the words of Dr Suess, “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory”. 2 Liza Steverson School House Director House Awards Koru Seed Trophy (Prep student who has shown personal growth and development in boarding)......

Armistice Day

Armistice Day was held on Wednesday 11 November, at 11am in the quad. It is important for students to stop and take time to learn what Armistice Day actually means and why it is commemorated.

On the 11th day of the 11th month at 11am, an armistice was signed between the Allies of World War 1 and Germany at Compiègne in France; to cease all hostilities on the Western Front.

Chaplain Bennett reminded the audience, of both students and staff, of all the sacrifices made. A moving service complete with the Last Post, a rider-less horse, the National Anthem, and The Ode read in both Māori and English. The short service ended with Amazing Grace, sung by Ngapuhi Kraus.

Dragons’ Den

The nerves were obvious, but everyone was doing their best to keep them under control.

Fifteen students ranging from Year 7 to Year 12 gathered in the Milford room of the Business and Entrepreneurial Centre last Tuesday for the final of this year’s Dragons’ Den; pitching their business idea to three judges in under two minutes, followed by eight minutes of probing Q&A. For most students it would be a daunting prospect, but the finalists overcame their nerves to deliver ten impressive pitch. The presentations, reflected their hard work over the last six weeks, including spending time during the end of term holidays writing their business plans and researching and validating their ideas.

This year’s Dragons’ Den was co-ordinated by freelance business writer, Andrew Patterson, who said the students had all worked extremely hard, even exceeding his own expectations with what they had achieved. “This was the first time I had run a programme like this with high school students, and the effort and commitment of the students was very impressive. Their business ideas were all really well thought through, and it was obvious to everyone who attended the final pitch session how much they had learnt from their participation in the programme.” The three judges, Jonathan Marshall and Melissa Renwick (both St Peter’s alumni), along with Susanne Rolfe General Manager Sales & Marketing at Tatua, admitted they had a particularly difficult job deciding on the four winning businesses. Each received $250 in start-up funding to establish their business, thanks to the generous support of Dragons’ Den sponsor, Milford Asset Management. In the end, the start-up funding prizes were awarded to: ·

• Luke Brouwer (Year 8), who has established Safari Garden; designing back lit, rustic shelving units that can be made to order. • Gennie Tuck (Year 9), the founder of Good As New, a business where people can go for second hand school uniforms, sports equipment and school supplies, while also donating a portion of the business profits to charity. • Evelyn and Thom Dijkstra (Year 10 and Year 7), the founders of Wetter, which produces a multi-purpose seat for young children. • Emma-Lee Abbot-Joe (Year 12), whose business, A Piece of Cake, offers both a cake making service as well as providing all the ingredients to make a cake for yourself.

All the students entering this year’s Dragons’ Den will be provided with ongoing mentoring support if they wish to develop their businesses further. It’s hoped that over time, building a culture of entrepreneurship within the school will lead to more students considering establishing businesses for themselves as a way of determining their own future pathways towards self-employment.

Campus Principal, Julie Small, described it as the highlight of her week. “I was so impressed by the entrepreneurship and knowledge the students exhibited and they obviously loved the opportunity.”

Prep (Year 7 and 8) Flag Day

The annual Flag Day is a time- honoured tradition in the Prep school and a highlight for all involved. Flag Day stems from 1936, when students and staff celebrated St Peter’s Day (29 June) with a lesson-free celebration, culminating in a large shared meal. The highlight was the Flag game: the players are all given a ‘life’ – a piece of white material attached to their shorts so it can be seen. If a player found a flag and later lost their ‘life’ (the white material was snatched from the shorts) the flag had to be handed over. The flags are in the house colours, so the most flags collected is the winning house on the day.

This year’s Flag Day was held on 4 September 2020. The theme was Super Heroes, and students enjoyed the following activities: • Crazy Chapel • Flag Game on Owl Farm • Pie and Chips in the Dining Hall • Movie - The Incredibles • Iceblocks Then home to clean up!!

Year 7 Adventure Based Learning

St Peter’s Year 7 students had a wonderful opportunity to experience and explore the wonders of the Tongariro National Park in February. The Waimarino Camp was a great base for students to learn about themselves, become more resilient, and overcome the conditions of their surroundings. The students experienced a number of activities that challenged them physically, socially, and emotionally.

The students were involved in water activities, including rafting the Tongariro river. This Grade 2 activity was demanding and at times scary, as they made their way down the river through some challenging rapids. The students were able to appreciate the landscape, ask the guides relevant and interesting questions, and learn more about what Aotearoa/New Zealand has to offer. Furthermore, they visited the National Trout Centre, where they learned a great deal about conservation, protection of species, and development and sustainability.

A highlight of the camp was the service learning opportunity; assisting with the restoration of land by planting and clearing ground. Students were able to learn about native plants as well as protecting their environment. Another highlight of the camp was the four-hour hike across Tongariro National Park. The alpine landscape was spectacular and students were appreciative of this experience. Whilst a difficult activity, it provided the students with a personal and positive outcome, as they were able to complete the hike and recall their experience that evening around the camp fire.

Teachers were able to reflect on the value of this camp for the students. The view was that this provided the students with an opportunity to grow personally and establish a culture as a Year 7 cohort, by developing independence, resilience, and above all a sense of community amongst each other.

Year 8 Adventure Based Learning

The Year 8 Adventure Based Learning Programme, held in November, saw all Year 8 students going to the Tongariro National Park, where they were based at the St Peter’s Outdoor Education site.

The key learnings for students from the annual Year 8 camp, are to:

• Develop appreciation and respect for the land - Tongariro National Park (spiritual, cultural, physical) • Develop personal growth by working as team members through a range of activities and challenges; learning to take responsibility for themselves and others • Develop new friendships and an understanding of other students • Engage in learning opportunities within the National Park region

Adventure highlights included a half-day cycling the Ohakune Old Coach Road, a day hiking to the Tama Lakes followed by a swim then fish ‘n’ chips in Turangi, finishing the day toasting marshmallows over a campfire. A day was also spent at the National Army Museum in Waiouru, including cooking a soldier ration-pack lunch and visiting the Tangiwai Memorial site – bringing to life recent learning in class about this significant moment in New Zealand’s history.
