What a fantastic day the 16th June was.
All of the children from Room 6 participated in the annual Fire Brigade Tournament. Year 5 and 6 entered a rippa rugby team and a hockey team. The Year 7 and Year 8s entered two soccer teams.
Our ripper team won all of their games and represented our school well with their high standard in play, sportsmanship and dedication. A special mihi to Matua Te Rangi for the hours of lunchtime training he has put into this team. What a success they are!
I also thank Gail Eruetit for her commitment and willingness to help out.
Hockey was awesome. We had full participation and everyone worked as a team. A few special standout students were Hunia Reihana - an amazing player, Kash Danford - dedicated and positive. This boy showed leadership and played his heart out. The team had 9 games and won six of them. Special thanks to Liz Cook for her support on the field and to whanau, Shana, Kiri and Zar for your tautoko. Lastly, a special acknowledgement to Elise (seven years old) who joined our team and was a valuable member.
Year 7 and 8 students played extremely well too. Soccer was very popular this year and they had strong competition. Well done Team A who won 3rd place in the tournament! A big thanks to David Prickett for organising the soccer tournament.
To our young sportspeople who participated, we are proud of you all. Whaaia te iti khurangi, ki te tuohu koe, me he maunga teitei.
