Swimming sports

What a great day we had. Thank you to all the teachers for their organisation and to Papakaio School who co-ordinated the event. We had a splashing good time!!! Names of qualifiers for North Otago will be sent home soon.

Fruity Friday

Thanks to North End New World for sponsoring our school and providing our kids with delicious fruit each week. Today was pineapple and it was a real hit with everyone.

A journey through time

Over the last 2 days the senior classes and the junior classes have been having their 'Jump In' experience to give them a taster of what life would have been like for the Early Settlers. We have had experience of a cruel Victorian classroom, dressed up in our finery for family photographs and had fun with our traditional dances.
Over the term we will be exploring family trees and what life was like for those Early Settlers in more depth. Hopefully the children will have more fun than the poor Victorian children did at their schools.
