Senior Prize Giving Results

Over 1,000 friends, family and senior students packed The Regent for an entertaining Senior Prize giving. Awards were interspersed by performances from Freyberg's gold medal winning Concert Band, Stage Band and Arts Academy Dancers. As Principal Michael McMenamin put it, Prize Giving was a good occasion to celebrate the hard work and achievements of Freyberg's outstanding students.

House Cup Results

Tararua house leaders Alice Ashwell and Matt Rennie were ecstatic to have won the house cup and were seen proudly parading it around the after function. It is the first time in over ten years Tararua has won, holding off tough competition from Kapiti who are the "bridesmaid" again.

Academic Dux

The prestigious academic award of Dux Litterarum went to Max Annear-Henderson who needed a tray to carry the 12 Trophies and prizes he won on the night. Going on to study Mechatronics next year at Massey, Max just wanted to "thank my teachers and parents".

The night was fittingly finished with a duet by Year 13 students Rongomai and Mara. As the audience reflected on the time and effort spent at Freyberg High School, Rongomai and Mara sang "In knowing you, I am made better."
