Monday's Scholars Assembly was a celebration of excellence as we recognised students who achieved top results nationally in Cambridge International exams last year, and those who achieved NZ Scholarships - placing them in the top 3% of New Zealand secondary scholars.


An extra round of applause goes to Yi Feng (Feng Feng) Chen who received a national Outstanding Scholar Award in recognition of his achievements in the NZ Scholarship exams. Feng Feng achieved six NZ Scholarships, two at Outstanding level, placing him amongst the top overall scholars in New Zealand. He will be presented with this award at a special ceremony in Wellington later in the year.

Of the 57 scholarships, 24 were achieved by Year 11 or Year 12 students; an incredible achievement.


Including Feng Feng, ten students achieved more than one scholarship.


Congratulations to:

  • Alan Wang (5 including 1 Outstanding)

  • Shrihan Bobbala (5)

  • Farjad Habib (4 including 1 Outstanding)

  • Rudra Patel (3) (Year 12 student)

  • Finley Hooper (3)

  • Charmaine Bhavnani (4, including 1 Outstanding)

  • Sabrina Wang (2)

  • Noor Al-A'raj (2) (Year 12 student)

  • Oscar Cao (2) (Year 11 student)


A point of celebration for the school is that the scholarships were achieved across 19 different subject areas. These included English (10); Media Studies (2); Calculus (7); Physics (5); Statistics (6); Chemistry (4); Drama (3); Biology (3); Painting (2); Japanese (2); Digital Technology (2): Design (2); History (2); Psychology (2); Religious Studies (1); Music (1); Geography (1); Classics (1); Technology (1).


In addition to recognising the top Cambridge scholars and NZ Scholarship recipients, Monday's assembly also recognised teachers who had taught these students last year. Other teachers received an Excellence in Teaching Award, which recognised those who had enabled the achievement of demonstrably outstanding results for a student, class or across classes in the previous academic year.


Congratulations to all who were acknowledged at this Scholars' Assembly!
