Three St Cuthbert’s College students and one staff member succeeded at the NZ Poetry Society’s 2011 international poetry competition.

Year 12 student Maria Ji became first in the open junior section of the competition.
Maria won $200 for her poem My Friend Nick, which will be published in the NZPS 2011 anthology.

Year 13 students Lucy Diver and Taylor Annabell received merit awards in the junior section, and Stephanie Mayne, St Cuthbert’s librarian, received a merit award in the senior section.

More than 500 entries were submitted in the junior open section, which made for fierce competition among the students.
