Scholarships

Recently, we Room 12 kids have been going for scholarships far and wide. From the cold shores of Evans Bay to the wild hills of Karori. Five of our students attempted the St Patrick's College Academic Scholarship Award a few weeks ago. Kate generously took our high achievers (no comment) to Kilbirnie for the three tests on their R.E, English and Mathematics skills. Our young boys (Hugh, David, Daniel, Zac and Finn) competed against 17 other pupils from various schools around Wellington. After the three tests had finished, they went to get McDonalds before returning to Nairnville for our Gym session. This week, Finn received the news that he had won the scholarship.

Lottie attempted the Samuel Marsden academic award, and after vigorous tests and an interview, she won the scholarship. However in the end she turned down the opportunity as she chose Wellington Girls College instead.

Congratulations Lottie Twyford and Finn Lowndes on their Scholarship achievements.
