Year 7 and 8 Sports Review

Eastern Zones Orienteering 2014

On Monday 14^th April our Year 7 and 8s students competed in the Eastern Zones Orienteering held at Auckland Domain.  We entered three teams; Year 7 mixed, year 8 mixed and Year 8 girls.  They had to be able to read maps and race against the timer around the terrain of Auckland Domain finding the controls.  Well done to you all for trying something new and better still enjoying it.

Every Tuesday this month of May a squad of 19 students trained and were coached up at Snow Planet by Lauren, Steph and Brad.  They improved greatly on their technique and speed and enjoyed their time on the snow.  

The team was selected last Tuesday 27th May after slalom time trials run by the Snow Planet team and we would like to congratulate the following students;  Tama Morris, Tane Tarlton Krauss, Lili Davis, Denash Haran, Alex Parr, Rachael Willison, Bridget Speed, Edwin Sun, Esther Swan, Zoe Parr and Cooper Hood and Mia Reid.  Now they will continue to train and prepare for the NISC held at Ruapehu from 25th-29th August.
