​Kathmandu Coast to Coast Outstanding Achievements

On Friday and Saturday Orewa College was represented at this iconic multisport race which traverses the South Island from Kumara to Christchurch. Competing in the gruelling 2 day event with 7 or 8 hours of racing each day which includes road cycling and mountain running on day 1 and whitewater kayaking and road cycling on day 2, totalling 243 epic kms.

Congratulations to our year 13 students who brought home school category honours:

Cameron Smith and Hamish Howarth, Year 13 - 1st place in the tandem category (racing together side by side and kayaking in a double kayak) total time 17:00:49.

Josef Andrews, Year 13 - 3rd place in the individual category. Total time 14:49:01 - an outstanding overall time!.

These results not only represent the hard work the boys have put in over the past few months but also the development that started in Year 7 at the AIMS Games.

You can view more details and photos on the Orewa College Sport or Multisport Facebook pages. So who will be racing next year?
