LACROSSE
Our lacrosse team has learnt a lot from last season and this year we have improved so much as we drew our third game against St Mary's and having our first win of the season against Pinehurst.
Our captain Lucy Hackett has been selected as a travelling reserve for the New Zealand Women's team, who will travel to the US to play college teams in July before heading over to the World Cup in Guilford.
We have also got lots of parent support this year which is fantastic.Thank you to our coach Ellen Hackett (ex-student) and to our amazing officials who umpire all our games - Bronwyn Hackett (mother of the coach and captain) but also to our manager - Katie Wickes (mother of Harriet Hannah-Wickes) for organising and co-ordinating things with the other amazing parents who come out to support and help out with transport and other duties!!!
We wish the team all the best - #UPTHEEELS!!!
ORIENTEERING - AUCKLAND SECONDARY SCHOOLS CHAMPIONSHIP
The North West Orienteering Club hosted this event, which took place at Woodhill Forest.
Springs had three female students enter this year.
Intermediate Girls Championship
Anna Cory-Wright finished 5th overall
Sylvie Frater finished 8th overall
There were 18 competitors in this grade.
Intermediate Girls Standard
Lili Cave - finished 15th overall
There were 25 competitors in this grade.
The Championship courses are set as difficult as possible within the guidelines to test
the most able orienteers in each age group. The standard grade courses still provide
a good level of technical and physical challenge.
Well done to all three of our Intermediate competitors. A big thank you to Guy Cory-Wright and Mary Wadsworth for their organisation and especially to Bronwyn Rosie for transporting and supervising the girls on the day.
