Dear Parents

During the September holiday break Newington College Preparatory Schools’ took a group of Wyvern and Lindfield boys on a Rugby and Soccer tour to New Zealand. The touring party included 36 students and three staff members. Staff attending were Mark Caulfield (Tour organiser and Soccer coach), Neil Brunton (Manager) and Joel Wilson (Rugby coach). The boys were from Year 5 and 6 with ages ranging from 11-13 years old..

The tour flew in to Christchurch travelling south to Queenstown. There boys played against opposing New Zealand school sides in Christchurch, Dunedin and Invercargill.

Mr Joel Wilson has done a fabulous job of writing up blogs of their tour journey.
