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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
