Kia ora e te whānau;
It’s been a fantastic week of action, with our boys’ volleyball, boys’ and girls’ futsal teams, and the boys’ 3x3 basketball team all competing in Summer Tournament Week. I’m incredibly proud of the dedication and hard work our teams, coaches, and supporters have put into these competitions, and I look forward to sharing their results next week!
Back at school, our Fast 5 netball tournament has been a lunchtime highlight, drawing a huge number of students - both as players and spectators. This school tournament was organised by our Sport Council and has been a great success. I’ve been really impressed with the outstanding leadership and organisational skills from our Sport Council members. Well done to everyone involved!
A special shoutout to our amazing Relay for Life team - their passion for raising awareness and funds for the Cancer Society is truly inspiring. They’ve already surpassed their $10K goal through bake sales, sausage sizzles, and personal fundraising, but they’re determined to go even further. If you’d like to support them, check out the link in their story.
Finally, Eid Mubarak to all our whānau celebrating Eid. Wishing you joy, peace, and wonderful celebrations with your loved ones.
Have a great weekend.
