Hey Guys,
Next week on the 1st of November, the Girls High sports awards are on. They go from 6pm till 8pm and I expect the junior team to be there to support the girls. The cost is $4.00 a ticket, and that money needs to be paid to the Girls high office. We will be going in costume, so think up some good ideas for dress ups.
This blog has been created to keep the students and parents of Whangarei Girls and Boys High School informed about up and coming events, photos, gear lists, results and general information. I hope that you find it useful.

Training Dates
Hey Guys and Gals,
The time has come to announce the final 10 squad members that will be training for the Get2Go finals in December. Like I said at the start, because of the type of training that we have to do to get ready, I can only have those 10 coming to thursday night trainings. However, this does not mean that you can not come to the events that are taking place over the next few months. So keep an eye on the blog for dates and events, and contact me if you are keen.
Get2Go Final Squad will also be starting Nav training on Monday nights from 3.45 to 6pm. This is an optional training for the squad, however, it is not only for the best Navs, so anyone can come.
This Thursday training will be for juniors only.
Here are some dates:
