SUMMARY:U15 Open Boys Rugby Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]U15 Open Boys Rugby team to represent BDSC at the\nHurricanes Rugby Tournament in Wellington \nCollege Sport Wellington will soon be hosting the 10th annual Hurricanes Rugby Tournament on behalf of the Hurricanes Youth Rugby Council. This is an invitation only tournament\, and the last time BDSC was invited to compete was 2017. \nAs a highly competitive tournament with some of New Zealand’s best teams representing their schools\, the tournament gives our U15 Open Team a great opportunity to test their skills and continue to build their strong team spirit. Twenty teams will be travelling to Wellington to compete\, and BDSC will play alongside 11 other teams in Division 1. Another eight teams will compete in Division 2. \nFundraising is now underway to help cover the cost of travel\, accommodation and meals over the four day tournament.  A successful BBQ\, cake sale and car wash were held a few weeks ago – despite a storm threatening to disrupt all our carefully laid plans. We’ll also be selling samosas\, and tickets are now on sale for our main event – a hilarious evening of hypnotic comedy with Haiming Jiang. \nEach of the players in the team has been tasked with selling 18 tickets to this event\, so see your Whanau team rep to buy your tickets and lend your support to the team.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”23423″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:School Production Audition
DESCRIPTION:Come and audition for this year’s school production \nThe Orphan of Zhao\n \nSometimes referred to as the Chinese Hamlet and tracing its origins to the 4th century BC\, The Orphan of Zhao was the first Chinese play to be translated in the West. \nThis adaptation of The Orphan of Zhao was written by James Fenton. \nThe courtier Tu’an Gu kills Zhao Dun\, who stands in his way\, and arranges for his whole clan to be put to death. \nBut Zhao Dun’s infant son survives under a different identity and is adopted by Tu’an Gu as his son. But the Orphan of Zhao will inevitably find out the truth about his identity and avenge his father’s death. \nAuditions will be held on Thursday 26 March at 3:40 pm\nCall backs will be held on Friday 27 March at 3:40 pm\n \nYou need to come prepared for the audition. This means you must learn the script extract which will be supplied in the PAC and ONLINE (see Cocurricular drama pages office365). If you want a part you need to prepare for that by learning the script for the audition. You must come in appropriate neutral clothing with your hair tied up and out of your face. You should also be prepared to try things out and you should know a song that can be sung unaccompanied. \nCast list will be out on Saturday 28 March \nOur first production meeting will be Monday 30 March at 3:40 pm to hand out scripts and read through the play.
