The event was a perfect reflection of our school values in action: manaakitanga, kotahitanga, and whanaungatanga.

The Amazing Race took students across various locations in Blenheim, with challenges that tested their problem-solving skills, teamwork, and determination. Adding to the excitement, students embraced the spirit of the day by dressing up in creative costumes, from superheroes to Peaky Blinders. This extra effort brought a fun and festive atmosphere to the event and set the tone for a day. 

From brain teasers at the libraries to physical challenges at the Police Station, the day was filled with laughter, energy, and learning. Everyone brought their best, working together as teams to overcome obstacles and encouraging one another every step of the way.

The celebration wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support from our local community. A big ngā mihi goes to the organisations that joined us for the day, their involvement not only made the race exciting but also demonstrated the strength of our community bonds and a memorable way to finish the year.
