Ki-o-Rahi Primary and Intermediate School Tournament

Kotuku G.E.M.S (Going The Extra Mile) Girls Ambassadors Project

There is a need for change, so while traditional sport continues to have barriers because of COVID-19, an ongoing commitment to growing sport for girls is a no-brainer. Fun, enjoyment and the social aspects motivate females, so changes to traditional structures are essential to developing new participation and leadership opportunities.

Winter Sports

After a forced interruption in sport caused by the Covid-19 lockdown, our students are happy to know that the school winter sports season is back in full swing with a huge number enjoying the competition. Given the green light, the gym doors have been sprung open, padlocks removed, playing fields opened and the hearing of whistles being blown seems to have reignited the students desire to engage in sports. Our senior students will certainly be loving being back with their teammates, as this will be one last shot for many to wear the Kotuku on their chest. Although this period…

Junior Sports Council Leadership Day

On Tuesday, 30 June the Junior Sports council attended a Leadership day at Adventure specialities trust. On the way, I was thinking about what fun stuff we were going to do.
