Principal's Message

Kia ora Kevinians and supporters of the College

Crisp frosts and clear skies have characterised a very productive autumnal term at the College. During the term Kevinians have excelled in cultural, sporting and leadership endeavours as well as running social justice initiatives which demonstrates their commitment to our Catholic Special Character. Mid year reports have been published and it is gratifying to see that student academic achievement also reflects the high expectations being demanded of students by staff. It is this personal academic challenge that helps support students to become lifelong learners.

It was a pleasure to welcome parents and caregivers to our final assembly as we awarded our Hillary and Sheppard Awards. Congratulations to all of the students who were recognised for their engagement and progress in the classroom. We were also joined by two groups of past pupils, members of the 1st XV teams from both 1965 and 1985 who traveled to Oamaru to join us for the traditional 1st XV game against Waitaki Boys. The Kevinian connection to the College continues long after the transition to work or further study.

May the Lord's blessing be with our community over the holiday period as we take the time to reconnect with family and recharge out energy levels.

May God bless you all
Paul Olsen, Principal
