Nikau and Kauri Athletics

Today Nikau and Kauri participated in the school athletics. The students came to school in their house colours, ready to compete in a range of sports, each one ready to strive for their own personal excellence.  A big thank you to the parent supporters and KNS staff who helped out on the day. Mr Foskett is calculating the results for which house wins the trophy for Athletics.

The points are being collated and final results will announced this Friday at Assembly.

What an experience

We were the only school participating in this tournament by that didn't stop us trying hard against the rep teams. The team showed 150% in all of our games. We also did a lot of fun activities such as bowling, going to the poolsm going on the steam train, and spending money at the shops.

The  soccer coaches

 

During the last 5 weeks of term 2 students in Wheki syndicate have had the opportunity to develop their soccer skills. The students were coached by some amazing Year 7/8 children who taught skills like tackling, dribbling, passing, goal kicking and some of the positions on the field.
