ST ANDREW’S College<br />

suffered two defeats in the<br />

space of five days in the<br />

UC Championship.<br />

However, there may be a<br />

silver lining to come from<br />

the latest round of play.<br />

St Andrew’s got off to a<br />

bright start in Saturday’s<br />

UC Championship match<br />

against Shirley Boys’ High<br />

School.<br />

The competition’s top<br />

point scorer Sam Gilbert<br />

crossed the line for STAC<br />

10 minutes into the game.<br />

He then converted his<br />

own try to make it an early<br />

7-0 lead.<br />

Shirley Boys’ got themselves<br />

on the board five<br />

minutes late when first-five<br />

SPORTS<br />

SILVER LINING: St Andrew’s in action earlier this year against Roncalli.<br />

St Andrew’s tough week<br />

Jackson Taylor converted a<br />

penalty right out in front.<br />

St Andrew’s extended<br />

their lead 20 minutes<br />

through the first half.<br />

Winger Alipate Gonerogo<br />

did well to elude a<br />

last-ditch tackle before<br />

running in for the try to<br />

make it 14-3.<br />

That would be the last<br />

point St Andrew’s would<br />

manage.<br />

Tries either side of halftime<br />

swung the match in<br />

Shirley Boys’ favour and<br />

they didn’t look back, running<br />

in two further tries to<br />

win the game 27-12.<br />

Although the loss ended<br />

what had been a frustrating<br />

week for St Andrew’s,<br />

Saturday wasn’t all bad<br />

news.<br />

STAC lost the Moascar<br />

Cup, (secondary school<br />

version of the Ranfurly<br />

Shield) on Tuesday but<br />

will have a chance to reclaim<br />

it this weekend.<br />

Timaru Boys High<br />

School claimed the cup<br />

with a 14-11 win against St<br />

Andrew’s last week.<br />

However, they were<br />

unsuccessful in their first<br />

defence of the silverware<br />

on Saturday. Timaru lost<br />

the Moascar Cup to Nelson<br />

College 3-18.<br />

The result means that St<br />

Andrew’s will now have<br />

a challenge for the cup<br />

less than a fortnight after<br />

losing it.<br />

St Andrew’s travel north<br />

this weekend to face Nelson<br />

College.<br />

Gym champions<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Stay warm with<br />

EnviroMaster<br />

Are you struggling with the heat of<br />

Summer or wanting to get organised for<br />

Winter? With the ever changing weather<br />

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility<br />

of being able to heat and cool which is an<br />

advantage no other appliance can offer. This<br />

represents great value for your investment<br />

as you can use it all year round. The team<br />

at enviro Master Ltd can help keep you cool<br />

this Summer either at home or work. enviro<br />

Master supplies, installs and services all the<br />

leading brands including Panasonic, Fujitsu,<br />

Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means our team<br />

can show you which system and brand will<br />

best suit your needs.<br />

We currently have savings up to $600 off<br />

the recommended retail price on<br />

selected models.<br />

Would you like to maximise the number<br />

of days you can use your swimming pool?<br />

Heating your pool can do this and one of the<br />

most cost effective ways is with a water heat<br />

pump. enviro Master Ltd can supply, install<br />

and service you swimming pool heat pump<br />

providing you with a comfortable, extended<br />

swimming season.<br />

Servicing your heat pump is extremely<br />

important to ensure that it is working<br />

as effectively and efficiently as possible<br />

resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump,<br />

lower power bills and greater comfort. But<br />

beware, not all cleaning companies are<br />

equal. We are constantly hearing of people<br />

being charged huge amounts for servicing<br />

and all they are getting is a heat pump clean.<br />

We at enviro Master, are qualified engineers<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />

and therefore are able to fully test and<br />

diagnose any problems you may or may not<br />

be aware of with your heat pump. Also, as<br />

we are associated with all major brands, we<br />

are able to repair these under warranty if<br />

they are still within the warranty period.<br />

It is important to remember, when<br />

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s<br />

warranty does not cover the installation<br />

and consumers could be responsible for<br />

any repair or damage caused to the system<br />

due to poor installation. enviro Master’s<br />

five-star installation guarantee ensures<br />

correct installation, and a demonstration so<br />

customers have an understanding on how it<br />

will best meet their needs.<br />

GYMNASTICS AND<br />

trampolining pupils from<br />

Marshland School mixed<br />

it up with the best in<br />

their age group at a recent<br />

national competition.<br />

Seven Marshland pupils<br />

attended the <strong>2016</strong> Otago<br />

artistic qualifying competition,<br />

a trampoline tournament,<br />

and the Dunedin<br />

Gymnastic Academy 1st<br />

junior competitions.<br />

Seven-year-old Marshland<br />

gymnast, Libby<br />

McDonald, won first place<br />

overall, second in the floor<br />

section, and second in the<br />

vault.<br />

Her gym team also finished<br />

second overall.<br />

Principal Jacqui Pascoe<br />

said it had been an “exciting<br />

weekend” for the<br />

pupils.<br />

“(It was) a very exciting<br />

weekend for a number of<br />

our Marshland children.<br />

In another competition,<br />

the Marshland School<br />

Tramp Team did incredibly<br />

well,” she said.<br />

In the trampoline competition,<br />

Jacob McGraw,<br />

9, won the men’s B grade;<br />

Ethan Field, 9, gained<br />

silver in the men’s A grade;<br />

Isla Maclean, 9, also gained<br />

silver in the women’s A<br />

grade; Riley Field, 7, placed<br />

third in the men’s C grade;<br />

Brooke Robertson, 6, was<br />

sixth in the women’s C<br />

grade; and Milly Robertson<br />

competed for the first<br />

time in women’s C grade.<br />

Mrs Pascoe said the<br />

scores gave Marshland a<br />

podium finish over the<br />

weekend.<br />

“With the top four scores<br />

combined, the Marshland<br />

School team came in<br />

second overall as well –<br />

outstanding,” she said.<br />
