A group of senior students, along with Whaea Alicia and Mrs Anderson-McGhie, travelled to Manukau last week to take part in a special session at ASB Polyfest designed for primary and intermediate aged students.

The Schools’ Day experience was an opportunity for students to take part in a range of cultural activities, including games and dances, as well as spend some time watching the different cultural performances presented by the high school students competing in Polyfest.

A highlight of the day for our students was learning a dance from Niue and then participating in a mass dance-off with students from other primary and intermediate schools. We even had some of our wh​ānau volunteers joining in. They also enjoyed the cultural performances, including dances from Brazil, Mongolia, South Korea and the Philippines.

A big thank you to Whaea Alicia and the whānau volunteers for making attendance at this event possible for our tamariki.
