On Tuesday 1 August our Year 5-6 rugby team competed in the zones competition at Rāwhiti Domain to see who would represent our zone at regionals.

Haeata was well represented at the recent Canterbury Primary Schools rugby zones competition held at Rāwhiti Domain. This was a busy tournament with fast turn arounds between games giving the team little or no time to eat, but all the boys played their hearts out for each other. After a rusty start against the eventual winners we started to get our combinations going and played some excellent rugby. We went through unbeaten but a second game drawn against Parkview School meant that we had to settle for second. We can be all very proud of the team!
