Our Olympic Visitor

Today we had an awesome surprise as Storm Uru the Olympic bronze medalist in rowing came to visit us.  He showed us some photos and shared his story of 'Perseverance' with us. We are learning about Perseverance as one of our school values.

 We asked him many questions.

Welcome Back

It is always exciting to hear what the children and their families have been up to in the holidays.  Mrs Vernon

had an exciting time cycling the Otago Rail Trail (150 kms) with a friend.

We have begun our term with our first Outdoor Education activity - a walk around Tawa to Willow Bank Park.  Tomorrow we are planning to walk the Redwood Bush track.   Weather permitting we will then catch the train to Cambourne to walk around the bay and sketch the boat sheds.  

I hope you enjoy looking at our photos.
