At the Taieri Plains Netball prizegiving Ella was awarded the Year 8 Representative Coaches Cup.

40 Hour Famine Success

Congratulations all of the amazing students in Room 7 who took part in the 40 Hour Famine.  Together they raised $633.10, this is fantastic effort and is putting our school Mercy Values into action.

Here are 14 of the 15 students who took part.  Harry is missing from the photo because he is busy taking in the sights of the Gold Coast.

Pairs in Action

We are focused on our learning and enjoying working with our partners finding out about New Zealand's currency and making connections with our current topic "What Makes Us New Zealand".

Kakariki's Whanau Session

Kakariki enjoyed their whanau session which focus on our Mercy Value of "Service".  It was good to do our bit for the school by tidying up the school ground.  Our session finished with playing some games which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Whole School Fitness

Thank you to our dedicated Whanau Leaders and Deputy Leaders for running our school fitness.  For the past few weeks we have been completing Fitness Circuits.  Our groups really love the range of activities they get to take part in.
