Ruby's Rainbow Day

The whole school dressed in bright colours to remember a much loved student, Ruby. We all brought a donation to school which will be passed on to the Starship Children's hospital in Auckland. Over $1000 was raised. 

Enviro Centre Fun

 Room 7 students love building shelters in the enviro centre. A great outdoor classroom.

2021 School Cross Country

 

Sound proud of all the students who tried their best during our school cross country event. You all did very well. 

Cycle Skills 2021

 Room 7 students were very lucky to take part in the Let's Go cycle training programme today. Important skills covered include safe braking, the life saver look, the importance of fitting your helmet correctly and maintaining your bike. 

Year 5/6 Interschool Final Competition

Our Year 5/6 Interschool rugby and netball teams proudly represented Oakura School at the recent finals competitions.  They both had tough games - rugby played against Inglewood and netball played against Waitara East. Proud of you all.
 

Be Seen Day

Oakura School students understand the importance of wearing bright colours when out and about, getting themselves actively to school and other places. They realise that wearing bright colours makes them much more visible to people driving their cars, thereby increasing their chance of not being injured while out and about. 
 

SMAK Testing

 Tane visited Oakura School yesterday to take our students through how to use the SMAK (stream monitoring and assessment kit) to see how healthy our streams are.
