Rippa Rugby

Recently, most of Room 10 have been involved with playing in the Hastings Rippa Rugby competitions. Some of us were in the Year 7-8 competition winning C team. Our B team were 2nd and our A team were 5th. Here is footage of some of us playing. 

Camp Waitomo

Day 3 at Camp Waitomo arrived and we got ready and had breakfast. Then we went to the Woodlyn Park show. That was interesting because the man was talking about the farmland and his mother. The part I liked about it most was when he showed us how to get up tall trees in the old days. The funniest part was when he chucked a foam axe and I thought he chucked a real one at us. It was cool. When he pulled a yellow string an animal came. It was cool how the animals knew to come and where to go. My favourite animal was when the dogs came in and when they got some sheep. He said his dream was going to the USA. Then we went back to camp.

Year 7 Camp at Waitomo Caves

Last week the Year 7’s visited the Waitomo Caves for their camp. The students have been preparing all year for this and have put in a lot of hard work to get there. Here are some of our video diaries from Day 2. We travelled to Stubbs Farm where we did abseiling, caving and team building activities.

Camp Day 2
