Ben at Race Relations speech

The Race Unity Speech Awards were initiated by the New Zealand Bahá’í Community in 2001 in support of Race Relations Day and the Diversity Action Programme. The New Zealand Police have been the principal sponsors since 2008, with further sponsorship offered by the Hedi Moani Charitable Trust and Auckland Council. Our representative for Gisborne Boys’ High School was a Year 11 boy, Benjamin Deighton, who stepped in at the last minute.

Tayler Reid wins

Tayler Reid raced at the National Schools Triathlon Championships in Christchurch where there were 800 competitors competing. In Tayler’s race there were 23 Competitors. He was first across the line in the men’s U19 race but faced a nervous wait as he protested an initial disqualification for a transgression on the bike.

Student rep BOT BOT Elections: As mentioned in the last Newsletter this year is the triennial Board of Trustees election year.
We need to ensure that the process and timeline for the election conforms to the legal requirements of this election.
Careers day Careers: All Year 10-13 students were bussed to the Showgrounds to participate in the Careers Expo which was held on March 17th & 18th this year. Forty three providers and local businesses were involved in showcasing their industry from a Careers point of view and many students took advantage of this and made some well thought out enquiries about how to go about getting into that particular career.

Property Matters: Our 10YP is finally underway…. FINALLY !
During the Term 1 holidays the new Boiler System for heating the school will be installed and I assume tested, so that we can return in Term 2 to a heated school.

PTA What new: Congratulations to our new PTA treasurer, Rosie Douglas
who has taken over from our long-serving treasurer Debbie Reeves. Sari McKenzie and Caryn Radburn are continuing as chairperson and secretary respectively.
j and the greeks Recently we had a one-off visit by J and the Geeks. With some last minute organising and a favour to a school teacher cuzzy, J and the Geeks dropped into Gisborne Boys’ High School for a short visit before their Tu Meke tour show, performed at Gisborne Girls’ High School.
Volleyball team Sports Roundup: We have had a fantastic start to sport at GBHS in Term 1. Week after week it seems we have had great results both at a local, Super 8 and national level. The highlight of the Term would have had to have been Tayler Reid winning the NZSS U19 Triathlon race in Christchurch. This is a great achievement from an outstanding athlete.
