“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny, but in ourselves.” – William Shakespeare.

This is certainly the case for two of our amazing students. These girls have created their own destiny by entering the Shakespeare Globe Centre New Zealand competitions.

Amanda Yu

Arielle Friedlander

From a huge number of entries across New Zealand Amanda Yu in Year 10 is a finalist in the prestigious Dawn Sanders Shakespeare Costume Competition and Arielle Friedlander in Year 13 is a finalist in the Ida Gaskin Shakespeare Essay Competition.

Both girls will be joining our winning actors at the National Festival in Wellington for the results.
