  • The children walk to the pool so will need comfortable walking shoes and will go wet or fine.
  • Please make sure the children come to school with named togs and towels the week their class is due to go to the pool. This is a valuable and expensive part of our school curriculum.  Please make sure tamariki have their togs every day for swimming.
  • Please feel free to walk with your child’s class to and from the pool if you wish.

Due to there being a lack of instructors at Stokes Valley Pool this year, Rooms 23 and 9 will be having swimming lessons in the school pool.  The Kaiako from these classes will send out information about this closer to the time.

PADDER TENNIS

PADDER TENNIS NETS

We have taken delivery of 3 padder tennis nets and 2 huge buckets of balls so we can continue playing this sport at school following the lessons.  We are grateful for the support of the Naomi Shaw from the Hutt City Council and Belinda and Jim Juno for their very generous support that has enabled us to get this equipment.  We look forward to some great padder tennis competitions on the top courts.

FUTSAL – 5 ASIDE INDOOR SOCCER

On Monday 19th September, 33 very keen and excited girls headed down to Walter Nash to participate in a girls only Futsal Festival. Koraunui entered 5 teams: – 3 in the Year 3/4 grade and 2 in the Year 5/6 grade. All the games were 10 minutes long and self-refereed. Every girl had a turn at being the goalie. Everyone had plenty of time on court and a good chance to hone their football skills. It was fun to watch and the responses from all the girls who took part were very positive. Maybe some will take up the sport!

JUNIOR CROSS COUNTRY

What a fantastic morning of running, cheering and having fun!  

Last Wednesday the junior students - Years 0 to 3 participated in their annual cross-country event. The emphasis was very much on having loads of fun. 

The weather was stunning - and the course looked amazing! A big thank you to all the enthusiastic supporters who turned up to watch the children run. It was great to have parents and whanau on site to support their children.  Your support was very much appreciated. 

A big thank you also to all the very vocal and supportive senior students who cheered the runners on and especially those who helped make sure the children stayed on the course!   

Once again, the hay bales especially brought in for the occasion, were a highlight!  

"I had lots of fun," said Oliver. 

"I loved the hay," said Indie. 

"I ran really fast, " said Ariya.
