Ki o Rahi

Awhina Love —

The Senior Ki o Rahi CSW weekly competition starts next week on Thursday. Mana College is hosting this competition here at school. There are 3 grades, Mixed, Girls and Boys. We are hoping to have at least 1 team in each grade this term so if you haven't already registered make sure you do.

The top 2 teams in each of those grades will play the top 2 teams of each grade from the Hutt Valley competition in a cross over to decide the overall winner.
