Our students enjoyed playing volleyball in their break time this week.

All welcome to join this free competition held on Tuesday nights at the Southern Trust Events Centre in Timaru.

10 of our Year 7/8's participated in South Canterburry Rugby's Rippa Day at Ashbury Park. It was a fun day out and they won 4 of their 7 matches. Well done!

In an effort to make cross-curricular links, we brought some Science into the workshop.

The Art Department are hoping to create a collective art work which would be created using 2 litre plastic milk bottle tops. We would gratefully accept donations of plastic milk bottle tops at the school office. Thank you!
