Badge Winners Share Their Success

At school for 4 days and after having a go at the legendary Tahuna  2.4 km Block run, these Room 8 students are holding aloft their Bronze Badges. Not easy to achieve on your first attempt, the hard work was clearly worth it and the smiles say it all. Success well earned!                                                            (Left To Right: Henare Te Morenga-Wakelin, Corey Pope, Archie Sieroczuck, Thomas Newman, Blake Kellas, Amber Kingham, Devon Crosland, Cassie Bloem)

2.4 Km Run! Easy!

Mike JenkinsonFebruary 7, 2017

Well that's what you might think based on these Room 8 students' smiles as they hold aloft their Bronze Badges.

     Around the Tahuna Block twice and covering a full distance of 2400m the view soon disappears and you have to focus on keeping up a good pace. Not too fast and not too slow. After a while, around the 1500m mark, you realise you're on your own and you just have to push yourself and keep on going.....but it's worth it.....and it was a great way to end these students first week at Tahuna.
