Congratulations to our students and staff on their outstanding achievements at this weekend’s SCGNZ Shakespeare Festival, hosted in the Charles Luney Auditorium at St Margaret’s College. After a morning of exceptional performances, our productions earned recognition across multiple award categories, with one group now heading to the national stage.
Our performers were recognised for the following:
A Winter’s Tale (Year 11–13) | Directed by Anna Turner
Scene Award – Best Use of Music
Lena Abdinor – Best Supporting Actor Award
Jess Erasmus – Best Performer Award
Winner of Best 15 Minute Scene and selected for the national competition.

A particular highlight was the success of A Winter’s Tale, which has now been selected to represent the region at the National Competition, to be held at the end of May in Wellington.
