Kapiti College Term One – 24 February 2018
Sports Events:
Athletics Day The weather threatened to bring an early end to the 2018 Athletic Sports. However, the determination of the organisers and cooperation from students ensured that we had another magnificent day. Record entries in almost all events ensured that everyone was well occupied and there were some outstanding and close results in most events. In slightly controversial circumstances the staff ‘dream team’ steam rolled the year 13 students in the 16 x 100m relay. Unfortunately, the year 13s forgot to stay in their lane and apparently, but not confirmed, the staff finished with a different colour relay baton to the one they started with. On Friday Louis Northcott sent the discus past the 1993 record of Kieren Martin with a throw of 40.27m. In the High Jump, which was postponed until Tuesday, Holly Cane Jumped to a new record of 1.50m in the year 9 girls. Well done Louis and Hollie. The house inter competition was the closest for many years and the outcome came down to the form level relays. Nikau (803pts), with massive support from their students, confirmed their superiority closely followed by Mana (777) with Tararua (773) and Moana (763), 3rd and 4th respectively. From the results accumulated the college champions for 2018 are: Seniors - Ashleigh Hill and Louis Northcott Year 11 – Erin Mckevitt / Sammi Clarke (joint) and Ethan Calder-Cass Year 10 - Ana Sidwell and Max Hosking Year 9 – Tessa White and Francis Mettrick.
A large group have been selected to defend the Te Rauparaha Shield next Thursday against Paraparaumu and Otaki. Go Go Go KC.
