31 May 2019 We are thrilled to announce that the Sweet Hearts Quartet won the Female Quartet section (out of 24 quartets) at the Regional Young Singers in Harmony Barbershop Competition yesterday. Comprising (L to R) Jessica Lawrence, Ngarangi Sadlier-Patmore, Anya Dunlop-Brown, and Terina Sadlier-Patmore, the girls really entertained with musical class and flair.
They gained great scores in all the categories of Music, Sound, Showmanship and Expression, 15 marks ahead of the next Quartet. This enables them to go to the National Finals in Christchurch held in September. The Sweet Notes quartet also sang really well. We are proud of all the girls for their hard work.

SHC Composting Initiative - Mana Whenua
30 April From today a composting system has been implemented to reduce the amount of food waste we send to landfills. To do this, the staff room and form classes each have a bucket that will be used as a composting bin.
This initiative relates back to our school values by:
- putting the right food scraps in the bins we individually show our school value of Mana Whenua - a heart for the land and environment that we live in; and
- having this system in SHC, we as a school also show Mana Whenua in doing our part to reduce the impact of waste in the environment.
Thank you to Ms Booker and the students who are working hard to get everyone committed to this initiative (though more volunteers are needed , so please see Ms Booker if you would like to be a team member).
