The game at Littlebourne had all the traditional trappings of the long-standing interschool First XV rugby match that was first held in the 19th century.
Both teams attempted to intimidate their opponents with their hakas before the game.
Otago Boys had the advantage because it was able to bring in the heavy cavalry of boys to do the school haka during the game.
The match attracted some greats of the past.
Former All Black prop Jack Hazlett watched his grandson play for his old school of Christs College and former international cricket and rugby commentator Iain Gallaway was also supporting the visiting team.
Stewart was accurate with his tactical kicking, which kept Christs College pinned in its own half for most of the second spell.
The best Otago Boys player was loosehead prop Craig Millar, with his strong scrummaging and driving play.
Lock Joe Latta was skilled in the line-out and dangerous with the ball in hand.
Midfield back Lewis Tili was strong on the burst, covered efficiently and gained ground with his long punts.
Fullback Ryan Shanks was safe at the back and counter-attacked strongly.
The best Christs College players were lively hooker Garth Fechney and strong attacking flanker Toby Martin, who also gained two-handed ball at the back of the line-out.
Otago Boys 13 (Henry Parker try; Lewis Tili conversion, penalty goal, Jack Stewart dropped goal), Christs College 5 (Jason Procter try).
Half-time: OBHS 10-5.
