St. John's college Sporting and Cultural awards evening - Vilagrad winery

Last Wednesday, we attended the prizegiving event at the Vilagrad winery near Hamilton. Kieran was being awarded his "blues" for services to the school musical scene.

It was an excellent evening, with a beautiful carvery meal and an excellent performance from the school guitar group to provide the music. An after dinner speaker had the audience in tears, both laughter and sadness, well worth a read of his story on his website... http://www.jasonbarrell.co.nz/jasonstory.html

Kieran and all the boys looked very smart in their school uniforms, they were a credit to the school and it is nice in this day and age to celebrate young people's achievements instead of hearing about their problems.
