Camo Day
To celebrate the start of duck shooting, the children dressed in their best camouflage gear. They headed over to the Rugby Club, where they completed a series of challenges, including building a mai mai, bush first aid, and much more.

Zone Cross Country
In mid-May, all the children headed to Waianiwa School for our annual zone cross country. They were split into age groups and ran alongside children from Heddon Bush and Waianiwa School, competing for a place in the Central Cross Country.
We were very proud of their resilience and effort.

Community Afternoon
To finish off the term and celebrate Matariki, we held a community afternoon. Parents, family, and friends moved around different activities at the school and enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea together.
