Sam Hale was Mount Aspiring College’s<br />

highest performing Year 12 academic<br />

student in the national exams in 2005 but,<br />

for the Class Act award, he was particularly<br />

acknowledged for his expertise in music.<br />

Sam’s chosen musical instruments are<br />

the piano and saxophone. While he is<br />

most often seen at school playing the<br />

saxophone his greatest strength is as a<br />

pianist. Sam passed his Royal Schools of<br />

Music Grade 8 piano exam (with Merit)<br />

in October this year. In 2007 he will be<br />

attending the University of Otago to begin<br />

studying towards a degree in medicine.<br />

Louise Jull is a member of the NZ<br />

35th in the World Champs with a best<br />

placing of 5th in the competition in the<br />

Czech Republic. Louise is also a regional<br />

representative in Surf Lifesaving, although<br />

she has had to put that role on hold<br />

during this year in Wanaka. Louise heads<br />

to the University of Otago next year to<br />

begin a marketing course.<br />
