North Harbour Hockey Tournament

The Year 7/8 students went to Rosedale Park on Thursday the 23rd of June to compete in the North Harbour Hockey tournament.

We played four fun filled but challenging games against Albany Junior High, Takapuna Normal Intermediate, Murrays Bay Intermediate and Mahurangi College.

Throughout the day we worked hard to improve our passing which helped us to get the ball into the other teams striking circle.

Our team showed great sportsmanship by supporting and cheering on other teams.

We would like to thank all of the parent helpers that supported us at this event, you made this day possible.

Check out the action at this year's Junior School Cross Country!

Rippa Rugby Rulz !

Recently we had two teams competing in the North Harbour Schools Rippa Rugby Tournament. Both teams competed admirably, winning their fair share of games.The players involved are to be commended for their resilience, skill and most importantly outstanding sportsmanship.

GHS was also represented in an invitational tournament held at the North Harbour Stadium. The best school teams throughout North Harbour were in involved in this event and were vying for a place in the Rippa World cup competition to be held in conjunction with the other big event soon to happen.

Our team gave outstanding performances in their bid to make the final but were unfortunately pipped at the post by the team that eventually made the final.

Many thanks to the enthusiastic band of supporting parents in both tournaments and your transportation of the teams to the events is much appreciated.

In all we were very proud of our achievements on the field. Well done teams!  

Year 7/8 Inter-School Hockey Tournament

On Thursday the 16th of June we hosted the Inter-School Year 7/8 Hockey Tournament at our school. 

A mixed team of Year 7 and 8 students from Gulf Harbour, Silverdale and Stella Maris participated in the coast cluster hockey tournament.

Each team played twice and they all grew in confidence as the games went on. In every game we scored goals and our school's Player of the Day was Ashleigh Nelson who got picked by the other coaches and refs.

It was a great day and the team are looking forward to the North Harbour Hockey tournament next week.
