AGGS Girls competing in National Secondary School Waka Ama Competitions

Last week our Waka Ama teams competed in the National Secondary School Waka Ama Competition held in Rotorua. Our Under 19 W6 came third in the 250 metre championship final and our Under 16 girls were just pipped at the post by half a second in the 250 metre plate final. Best of all the girls had a great time and were wonderful representatives of our school.

AGGS Girls win Bronze in Volleyball

Our Senior Volleyball team competed in the North Island Secondary School Championships held at Eventfinda Stadium last week. Congratulations to the girls and to their coach Ms Faleleua for a great finish - Bronze Medal winners out of 16 schools who competed. A fantastic achievement.

Successful Lockdown Exercise

We have completed our lockdown and evacuation exercise and all students, staff and persons on-site are safely accounted for.  Everyone did extremely well and responded to instructions.  A notice will be going out to parents/caregivers tonight to provide some more information about our emergency lockdown procedures.

We will be sending a notice/email out tonight providing information on what has occurred today.  I would like to personally thank you for your support while we conduct these practices.

Celebration Assembly

Just before going into lockdown in early March, we celebrated our students NCEA 2020 successes at a special assembly.

Recognition badges were awarded to all of our successful students and our Scholarship recipients returned to school to join the ceremony for their achievements to be recognised as well. 

We are very pleased with our results which met the goals we set ourselves at the beginning of the year and exceeded the national NCEA results, this despite the disruption caused by the COVID lockdowns last year, .
