Tēnā Koutou Kātoa - Sporting competition and Talent Days make for a nice break in routine.

by Sharon Keen

Casebrook has had over 120 students venture out over three days to various venues around the city and in Ashburton, to take part in a wide range of sporting codes. There have been teams at Hockey, Netball, Football, Table Tennis, Basketball, Badminton and Rugby 7's. I would like to congratulate all the students for playing hard and showing great sportsmanship. Thank you to the teachers for their support and training, along with a big thank you to Mr Tom Straker who had the overall responsibility for Casebrook's engagement in the tournament.
