Sixteen-year-old Nayte Ackerley – a Year 11 student at the College – is off to Germany in July to compete in the World Dwarf Games. Nayte has been playing basketball since he was eight – his story was featured in an article by Sue Bailey in the March 19 edition of the Sunday Tasmanian and has also been covered by ABC Hobart, Hobart Magazine, Glenorchy Gazette and Derwent Valley Gazette. It was great to note his comment that he has never been bullied and has a great group of friends. Enjoy the experience, Nayte.
