ACADEMIC AWARDS Gold Awards 2016

Executive Principal Garth Wynne presented Gold Badges, Ties and Buttons to the large number of boys who achieved top academic awards in NZQA Scholarships and NCEA examinations.

To gain a Gold Badge from Level 1 (sat in Year 11) boys must either gain 90 credits at Excellence during the year, or 100 Excellence credits by the end of Year 11 (for those boys who are accelerated and gain some credits the year before).

To gain a Gold Badge from Level 2 (sat in Year 12) boys must either gain 70 credits at Excellence during the year, or 80 Excellence credits by the end of Year 12 (again, for those boys who are accelerated and gain some credits the year before).

Gold Ties are awarded to the top five boys in Years 11 and 12.
