Playing sport with St Kents

Wow, we have been very fortunate to visit St Kents and do fun sport an team activities but also have them visit us at Ruapotaka and have more sport here!

Playing tag!

This was the human knot. Fakaola looks uncomfortable but she's just trying to get out of a team knot.

Here's another knot.

Watch out Solomone! Playing terminator tag.

Who's going to win it?

Weeks of training and building stamina has lead this group of hard workers to compete for the longest skipper. It was a very long skip off and to skip for that long only showed how much our winners had to practice. Awesome job to all students who participated.

First place: Limiteti

Second place: Fakaola

Third place: Meana

Well done!!!

Learning about the friendly island of Tonga

Malo lelei , we have just completed an awesome inquiry topic - Tonga! It has been very interesting investigating the unique Tongan culture. These are some of the traditional foods from the Kingdom of Tonga. A lot of us have tried it for the first time today and wow did we love it!

We had some visitors that have also studied this inquiry topic.

Kain looks like he's enjoying that lu sipi and talo.

It was definitely a new and different meal from what some of us normally have. I hope everyone enjoyed it!

Malia, Joanlisi and Mary-Ruth brought some beautiful colourful outfits to celebrate the occassion.

Farewell Dominic

On Wednesday the 31st of May 2017 Dominic left our class and our school. It was very sad to see him leave. We loved him so much. He was the coolest friend ever, if someone was sad he would help to cheer them up. He was the brightest person I have ever met. He was cool, amazing, funny and he absolutely loved the Lord.

We will miss you soo much Dominic!
I wish you luck at your new school and have fun.
Enjoy your life the way you want and take care! We will miss you.. a lot!
