This group of Year 9 and 10 Boys were selected from our U15, U17B and U17A teams who played throughout the 2016 Counties Manukau Basketball competition. Competing in the Premier Grade was always going to be a tough challenge but it was also an incredible opportunity for the players and coaches to gain exposure to some of the best teams in the North Island.

AIMS Games swimming finished late Tuesday night at Baywave Aquatic Centre with over 300 swimmers from around the country competing and some great results with all three Sancta Maria swimmers making the finals last night.

An exhausting week comes to a close and the curtain is drawn on the season for our senior girls’ teams. Many thanks to our reporters, Kendra Williams (netball), Miss Bradley (hockey) and Miss Goulding (football) for their daily updates. How did the teams fare on the final day? See below to find out.

This busy August has finally ended and we scored another little victory yesterday:
The Junior Choir took part in the first full-size rehearsal for the Auckland Primary Principals’ Association Festival at Remuera Intermediate.

Day 4 saw two more wins for the football girls, a first win for the hockey team and a win and a loss for our netballers.

A day of mixed fortunes with the football girls recording their first win and our netballers finding themselves up against tough opposition once again.

Last Saturday night was a big one for pop bands at Sancta Maria College. Three of our Year 7 & 8 bands represented us at the Manukau heats of Bandquest, which is the pop band competition for New Zealand schools at intermediate level.
