The Senior Netball Academy team from Mackay State High School recently embarked on an exciting sporting trip to New Zealand, where they competed in the International Netball Festival.
Accompanied by Miss Barons and Miss Robertson, the talented team participated in three competitive game days over the course of 11 days while exploring the scenic city of Christchurch and its surrounding areas.
The trip kicked off with a leisurely tour around Christchurch, allowing the team to soak in the local culture. At the festival's Welcome Dinner, they had the unique opportunity to meet other international teams and experience traditional Māori performances by local schoolchildren, providing a warm introduction to New Zealand's vibrant heritage.
In addition to their on-court action, the team visited Ferrymead Heritage Park, where they immersed themselves in history by dressing in period costumes. The group also explored the International Antarctic Centre, enjoying a thrilling Hagglund ride, a 4D theatre experience and even meeting adorable penguins and huskies.
After their initial game days, the team enjoyed some well-deserved relaxation, including a visit to hot pools and an adrenaline-filled bungy jump.
