Clay Target Shooting This season of Clay Target has seen a 100% increase in the number of boys competing for the school. The team now consists of 10 keen shooting enthusiasts. The team acquired the knowledge and experiences of a nationally representative in the form of Rob Carruthers. Rob is an old boy of NPBHS and has been a pivotal part of the boys improvement over the season. The boys have shot regularly at the New Plymouth club to hone their skills before competing at the Waikato championship, Super 8, North Island championship and New Zealand nationals. Highlights from the season: Dylan Rowe and Blake Walker shooting 100% during a training. The boys welcoming Mr Veric to a UP afternoon. The boys trying a team event called a ‘Flurry’. Many thanks to Rob for his advice, Heath Priest for his transport and support while at nationals, and the Prof t’s for providing an alternative shooting venue. I look forward to being part of the continued learning and improvement in everyone's skills. Mr Jamie Farquhar - Teacher in charge
