CJCA Cricket Tournaments 2020

March 16, 2020

It was an absolute pleasure to be involved with our four Heaton cricket teams that competed in the 2020 CJCA Christchurch Cricket Championships. There was a brilliant atmosphere at Hagley Park, with Heaton entering two competitive teams, and two development teams. The improvements from all of our players involved was fantastic to witness! All of our Heaton teams played an attacking and entertaining style of cricket, supported one another, and developed more confidence. We also had some amazing individual achievements with some students recording half centuries, an unbeaten century and two hat tricks!

Our Heaton Boys development team finished the tournament with an impressive 2 wins from 4 matches, and our Heaton Girls development team finished with a perfect 5 wins from 5 matches. Our Boys 1st XI team lost a nail biter to St Thomas school, and won the remaining 3 fixtures to finish fifth out of twelve teams. Our Heaton Girls 1st XI continued their spectacular recent form with three comprehensive wins against Cobham, ChCh South and STAC, to win the tournament and progress as Christchurch Champions.

I would like to thank coach Barry V.B and Miss Caygill for the continued and amazing support, guidance and encouragement they have provided our teams for the duration of this term. I would also like to recognise all of those caregivers who could make it down to Hagley to provide their support over the four tournament days.

Heaton Swimming Sports 2020

March 15, 2020

The 2020 Heaton Swimming Championships provided an opportunity for our competitive and experienced swimmers to battle it out for school selection at the Canterbury AIMS Championships, and for our recreational swimmers to earn house points and improve their confidence.

We were very fortunate to have the support of our Heaton Learning Support Team, Mrs Earl, Ms Green and a number of parents/caregivers who gave up their time to help coordinate this opportunity for our Heaton students. Thank you for your dedication and selflessness!

A huge congratulations must go out to all of our competitors for the positive and supportive way in which they competed. We had a number of amazing individual performances, and are very much looking forward to seeing some of you compete at next months Inter-schools event.

The 2019 Anchor AIMS Games was an event of epic proportions. There were over 11,500 competitors who were representing 365 schools from throughout New Zealand, Asia and the Pacific. These staggering participation numbers place it ahead of the number of athletes that competed in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio!

Heaton were superbly represented by two sports teams (Girls’ 11-a-side Hockey & Boys’ Basketball) and 9 individuals who competed in BMX, Squash, Cross Country, Swimming, Gym-sports, Golf and Multisport. Our Heaton athletes have worked tirelessly over the past six months to prepare for this tournament, and have been wonderfully supported by their coaches, parents, family and teachers. I would  personally like to take this opportunity to thank Miss Seales, Mrs Dore and Mrs Newton for all of their efforts, energy and expertise. Without you, this opportunity would not be possible for our athletes.

I would like to congratulate all of our students for their individual and team success. We are extremely impressed with both the personal and sporting development that occurred during your week in Tauranga. You have all made yourselves, our school and your families very proud! We are so pleased that all of your hard work, sacrifice and efforts have been rewarded.

Our Heaton Hockey Team (affectionally dubbed the frogs) have been crowned Aims Games Champions, bringing home the 11-a-side Hockey cup with a perfect 8 wins from 8 games. Lauren S (Room 8) has also added to her impressive national tournament successes with a bronze medal win ( only .3 points behind the gold medal). With other personal best performances, many top 10 finishes and amazing improvements, this years Aims Games was a spectacular success.

Being on 2020!

If you are involved in Miss Caygill’s team you will not require cricket whites (unless you already have them and could like to wear these), as students can wear their Heaton PE kit throughout the  Incrediball tournament

Students will need to be collected directly from Hagley Park, and they must check in with Ms Caygill prior to departure so she knows that they are leaving with a trusted adult.

As there is only one game on Friday for the hard-ball team, students will be finished at approx. 12:45pm. At the conclusion of the last match, we would like the Heaton A team to support the development team for their final match, which takes place from 1:00pm – 2:30pm. 

Parents/caregivers can collect their daughter on Friday at 2:30pm from the polo grounds. Please ensure the girls sign out with Mr Evers before departing.

Incrediball 12/12 Competition (3 x games per day): The first game will commence at 9:15am, and there will be three games per day.  This is to provide maximum opportunities for each girl to improve their batting and bowling skills.

DRAWS & RULES:
PARTICIPATION EVENT
A reminder that the Participation Tournament will be played with Incrediballs so Protective gear is optional. THE CJCA WILL PROVIDE THE PITCH SET UP AND THE BALLS FOR THE PARTICIPATION EVENT.
The participation event as outlined will play THREE 12 over each games each day these are programmed for starting at 9.15am, 11am and at 1pm. As we have 7 teams there is a bye and 2 teams will have a bye in the middle of each day. The rules for the event can be found above and the umpires will do the scoring on the pitch.
PARTICIPATION TEAMS SHOULD MUSTER AT 8.45AM FOR A BRIEFING AT THE BIG TREE IN THE POLO GROUNDS SO WE CAN GO OVER THE RULES BEFORE WE START PLAY
COMPETITIVE EVENT
As we only have 4 teams there will be a 3-game Round Robin to decide the winner and the runner up for the next phase of the Tournament in Term 4. THIS WILL MEAN THERE WILL BE NO FINAL ON THE 23RD OF MARCH.
The CJCA will provide umpires but schools need to do the SCORING. Finishing orders will be based on points and the  Net Run Rate. The 3rd round will play Friday morning so the Tournament should be completed by approximately 12.15pm Friday.
