Sport News for 2022

Curling - On Thursday, 1 September, the Massey High School Mixed Curling team had an incredible win in their final game at the North Island Secondary Schools Curling Cup, against Long Bay College. 

It has been a tough week for the team however, they learned from their previous games and changed the player line up to absolutely dominate the game. 

We are incredibly proud of the first Massey High Curling team, in TEN years, and the way they performed this week.  Well done to all that took part!

Massey High School - Mixed Team: Yujung Heo (Yr 13), Samuel Wagner (Yr 13), Sophie Norman (Yr 10), Leon Willy (Yr 9), Marcos Giron (Yr 10). Teacher in Charge: Ms. Eleanor Adviento.
