After a healthy and well deserved mid semester break selwynites came back happy and refreshed. Personally i spent the week in Nelson and enjoyed the 21 degree days-amazing! The beginning of the last term brought the start of the remainder of our battle with knox for Cameron Shield and Neville Cup. The first of these this term was instrumental. I was part of the quartet and instrumentally it consisted of a saxophone, one clarinet and two flutes. We played two pieces-one composed by Handel and the other by Vivaldi. So it was kept very classical. Knox played quite a similar style style of music. It was very close (6 marks apart out of 100)  however unfortunately for us Knox came out on top. Special thanks go to Cassy a returning resident for sourcing and coaching the group-trooper!! Currently we are preparing for Dance and Choir for the Neville Cup. Wish us luck! I will post the results when they are done.
