Special Assembly- Waitaki Week

Today we had an assembly to mark the end of Waitaki Week, and recognise other special achievements from throughout the term.

We also welcomed back the 1969 St Kevin's College rugby team for their 50 year reunion, which features our very own Mr Russell Dixon.





Captain Peter Reichwein spoke about life at the college in their time, and their match against Waitaki Boys in their interschool, which SKC won 9-0. Despite being 50 years ago, he could recall exactly how the match happened!



The captains of our sports teams also carried out the pounamu blessing, to bless all of our teams who have competed, or are yet to compete in Waitaki Week.



All the very best to our 1st XV in their match today at 1.30pm.

Thank you to Michelle Buckham for the photos.
