“To come second out of all the schools entering from throughout New Zealand is a great achievement.
“Congratulations to the students and teachers who worked so hard on this performance. They have done the local community very proud.

“The judges described the performance Framed as “brilliant story telling” and that it was “impossible to go past the beauty of this piece.”
“Congratulations also to Year 12 student Caleb Jago-Ward who directed the performance. Caleb was my Youth MP in this year’s Youth Parliament and is clearly a talented name for the future.”
