What an excellent day was had by all!

I was impressed the positive attitude and willingness to give something a go. Congratulations to all of the Kākano students!

This event would not have been possible without the support of the parents who helped marshall the course run out of school. A particular mention goes to Amanda Lomas, Hilary Ferguson, Rod and Melanie Brown, Ben Allott, Sarah Stacey, Elsie Sicat, Ian Montague-Ebbs, and Chall Hunter.

The first three place getters will receive a certificate at next Monday's Kākano Assembly on June 24th. Each place getter has earned PoZi's for their respective house.

Here are some sound bites - 

Angie - She says that she really enjoyed doing both runs she said that the fun run was the best though. Her favourite part of the fun run was everything and she had lot's of fun getting to run with her friends and she also loved the support of her big buddies especially Zara.Ella - She really enjoyed doing the fun run but she didn't really like doing the competitive run she says her favourite part of the fun run was the parachute she also enjoyed jumping over the bucket things. She hopes that she can do the fun run again in the future and she also enjoyed having her big buddies supporting her. Brieana - She enjoyed running in both of the activities her favourite thing in the fun run was going under the parachute. She also enjoyed running in the competitive run and she was proud that she got 10th place. She also liked it because she had people supporting her like her Mum, Grandma, Nany, Aysha, Dania and also Miss P.
