Spotlight on Sport

Jolene Nelson —

Some very warm days started the after school tennis coaching sessions off last week. It is great to see the children really enjoying the variety of skills being taught in a such fun way by the coaches.

Flippaball for Years 5 and 6 has started now and sounds like they are off to a great start having played a much improved game this week. Rippa Rugby for years 1-4 starts this week.  

Pahoia School triathlon

If your child is interested in triathlons, the Pahoia School triathon is being held on Sunday 8th April. This is a great triathlon to take part in with a great reputation locally and to top it off there are some great prizes. Book the date in your diaries and once registration information is available, we will let you know.

Yummy stickers

Tauriko School is involved in the Yummy Sticker campaign again in 2018.

Collect the Yummy cut-out labels from bags and individual Yummy apple stickers for our school’s share of $200,000 in sports gear. Yummy apples are available from New World, Pak'n Save and participating Four Square stores.

Download the sheets below to place the labels and stickers on, and return to school once your sheet is fill. The final collection of stickers and labels for 2018, will be at the end of August.
