A special shout-out to Nia, who played a vital role behind the scenes, helping with set-up and acting as ball person throughout. ⭐

Da iawn all! ❤️💚🤍

On Sunday, we farewell rugby exchange students Zac Bowes and Jac Jones, who arrived from Cardiff, Wales, in mid-June.

During their time in New Zealand, the pair have seen a good portion of the country, competing in rugby matches on both sides of the Cook Strait.

Playing for the Nelson College 2nd XV as well as club rugby on Saturdays, Zac and Jac have gained a genuine taste of New Zealand schoolboy rugby.

When asked what they had enjoyed most about their time here, both found it difficult to narrow it down to just one thing.

"The whole experience has been brilliant. I've loved seeing the culture here and the beautiful scenery," said Jac.

For Zac, one of the standout differences was the pace of life.

"Everyone's in such a hurry back home, whereas here people are much more chilled out. It's got everything you need here. I've loved it."

Another highlight was the weather. Despite arriving in the middle of winter, the boys experienced only a handful of rainy days.

"I can't believe this is winter," said Zac.

When asked whether they would recommend Nelson to students back home, their answer was immediate.

"One hundred percent."

Safe travels home boys, it's been wonderful to have you here and we're so glad you had a great experience! Thanks to Whitchurch High School Cardiff for sending us these fine young men! Whitchurch High School, Cardiff
