House System

The School re-introduced a House System in 2006. 

Form classes have been organised into four house groups – Tangaroa, Tawhirimatea, Tumatauenga and Tane Mahuta.  Each house has two staff member leaders and eight form classes.  Mr Murphy has overall responsibility for all House Competitions.

There is an organising Committee overseeing the running of house activities.  Mr Murphy is the House Co-ordinator.   The Committee formulated a three year plan and the focus this year is to run full school activities, looking for maximum impact by including the maximum number of boys.

House Summer Sports Tournament 2010

This event was held on Friday 7th May during Periods 3 & 4. The sports on offer were Cricket, Touch, Volleyball, Softball, Surfing, Skateboarding, and Long Ball.
It was great to have every student representing their House at the same time and tested the depth of talent in each House.
Points were awarded based on the number of boys playing the sport (eg. 12 Cricketers in a team = 12 Points for winning team, 2nd Team 9 Points, 3rd 6 Points, 4th 3 Points).

Overall points totals and final results    
1st   Tumatauenga (106)  400 Points
2nd Tawhirimatea (104) 350 Points
3rd  Tangaroa (103) 300 Points
4th  Tane Mahuta (74)  250 Points
