For Year 9 it is a trip to Hanmer Springs, with jet boating and a visit to the hot pools. Year 9 and 10 boarders all go whitewater rafting on the Rangitata River; Year 11 students take part in a Challenge Day, where they compete against each other in a wide range of activities; all seniors go on a paintball expedition, and take part in other bonding activities. “If we have a key theme to this, it is that we want them to mingle between the Houses at weekends, to expand their social circle, to do fun things together, and to be exposed to a wide range of activities.”
