Thank you to the many special men in our lives who celebrated Father’s Day Mass with us on Wednesday at St Luke’s Parish. It was a beautiful and blessed reflection, reminding us to give thanks for our fathers, grandfathers, and all the special men in our lives.

New silverware alert!

Our Premier Boys have been crowned Basketball New Zealand Northern Regional Cup Champions!

Competing across three days in Pukekohe, our boys progressed through pool play undefeated, despite a tough battle against Te Haikura a Kiwa (James Cook High School) to clinch a Top 4 berth. Our team shut down Kaitaia College’s attack in the semi, securing a place in the grand final against Rutherford College.

Spurred on by a rapturous crowd of whānau and friends, our boys pulled ahead in the second half to triumph 97-61. This was a great way to cap off our eight Year 13s’ basketball journeys at Sancta Maria College.

Thank you to coaches Ray & Marco, and managers Gian & Shona, for making this season and tournament a success.

Additional Congratulations to our referee representative, Ethan Siao (class of ’22) who was appointed to officiate the Girls’ grand final at the tournament.
