What a fantastic afternoon of rugby at West Gore School! 🏉

A huge thank you to Craig and Jamie from the MLT Rugby Ambassador Programme for delivering an engaging and energetic session with our students. Opportunities like these help our tamariki build skills, confidence, teamwork, and a love of sport.

We are incredibly grateful to MLT for sponsoring this programme and making experiences like this possible for our students!

SUPER proud of Issy & Laya for working hard to audition and gain roles in Gore Musical Theatre's Bad Jelly the Witch! Very well deserved! Plenty of ex-Westies in the cast too, which is fantastic to see. This book was a firm favourite of a few WGS staff members. We can't wait to see you girls shine on stage!

Meet the cast of Bad Jelly the Witch!
