On Saturday 2nd April two Lakes High students took part in the NZ Secondary Schools Open water Champs at Mount Maunganui. Samuel Trass Yr 12 and Hannah Kiernan Yr 10 swam in the 1.25km open water swim around Leisure Island. Hannah competing in the Female 14-15 yr placed 4th and Samuel in the Male 16-19 yr was 9th.

Great results in a highly competitive field for both these students. Very well done.

WATERPOLO

Friday night was the season finale of the Rotorua Intermediate and Secondary schools water polo competition. Lakes High has two teams in the competition; Senior mixed and junior mixed. Both teams have played well all season despite the hiccups created by COVID. In the finale the junior team was down 2 players, but still managed a great battle in the pool losing narrowly to WHHS. The senior team was pitted against JPC Senior Boys who are ranked very highly. Although this team also lost, the score was very close with our players managing to score 9 goals. Huge thanks to our player coaches and joint captains of the senior team Madyson-Manaia Martin and Samuel Trass. These two have done an amazing job as players and coaches of not only our school teams but also the Mokoia Intermediate team. Very well done.
