Keep safe you young guys!

Our Strep A nurses have not been at school since COVID. We know how serious Strep A is and how often children at KCS have been picked up as being positive for Strep A in the past.  It is very important to take sore throats seriously as it can lead to rheumatic fever.  Did you let your mum know you had a sore throat? Your aunty? You don't need to go to the doctors. You can get your throat checked in  Kaikohe.

Sports, Sports, Coding and up coming trips!








 This term is super busy. Technology is still on every Wednesday and we have already been involved in five sports tournaments. The girl’s volleyball team was extraordinary, winning 3 out 4 games! The boy’s team was just as amazing, also winning 3 out of 4 games. Huge thanks to Komene for giving his time to our skills development and to Matekino for taking the players and Mr. Cook for his support.   


We have also been involved in rippa (winning every game) and touch. Davalamayne and Kuini went to a Year 9-10 badminton tournament.

Our out of class activities are not all sports based. We have participated in a digital technologies curriculum too.  The class learned to program using code blocks and text-based programming on micro:bit. We are blessed to have this free experience. It is an introduction to computer science and engineering. Ms Toi, who has been running a successful Coding Club, came along too.
