What a wonderful, action-packed, exhausting day! All year 5, 6, 7 and 8 students participated in this sporting event held at the beautiful grounds in Pesega.
We are very proud of all our students who showed great skill and handled the long day with a positive attitude.
A special mention and thank you to three parents who gave up a lot of their own time to prepare the students for this tournament with training in the weeks leading up to the tournament.

Firstly to Tasi Schuster who guided our girls with netball coaching and training them. Her words of encouragement and advice really made a huge difference to the girls level of skill. For a small school we did very well to have three out of four netball teams placed third in the tournament. Thank you Tasi for giving up time from work and being such a great role-model for our girls. We certainly hope you are up for the challenge next year!
Secondly to Liza Hodson who coached the year 7 boys touch team and Ben Nicol who coached the year 5 boys. Again you both gave up your own time and were such a great help with coaching these teams. The year 5 team were awarded a trophy for showing great sportsmanship.
We appreciate the support and help these parents gave and thank you to all the other parents, grandparents and friends of the school who came down on the day and supported our teams. Fa'afetai lava.
It is wonderful to play along other schools and to enjoy the challenge of a sporting competition.
