Vegetable Garden

 Today Room 7 and 5 children were able to eat some produce from their buddy garden. All students agreed that the lettuce leaves tasted delightful, especially when they added them to their vegemite sandwiches. A great buddy class project.

Year 5 & 6 Coastal Athletics Day

 The Year 5 & 6 team had an amazing time at Coastal Taranaki School recently when they took part in the annual athletics day. Everyone did their very best and came away with some good results. Not only that - many students made new friends from the other schools involved. A great day for everyone.

Oakura Students were very lucky to have a beautiful day for their annual swimming sports at the Okato pool. Tension was high as students lined up for the house relay. It was such a pleasure to see the high standard of swimming skills. Well done to everyone who took part.

Room 7 students were lucky enough to attend the art gallery today to learn about how to create a piece of art that shows the importance of water.
A big thank you to Chris and Elaine for making the trip a success.
