Orienteering Team


Auckland Secondary School Individual Champs – Waiuku Forest (Thur 4 April)

A gorgeous day was spent at Waiuku forest with 11 students from King’s competing at junior, intermediate and senior grade, against 400 other students. We earned 1st position at junior level thanks to James McGuire’s consistent efforts. The courses on average took between 30mins-1hr to complete. One student however spent two hours roaming the forest, having gone off grid! Just as we were about to organize a search party he returned looking very hot and determined. It was very impressive how concerned and responsive the students were collectively in orchestrating the search party.
