UNICEF fair play event 2014

UNICEF NZ and Capital Football invited students to attend a Fair Play event at Memorial Park, Petone, on Tuesday September 9th.  It was also supported by the Wellington Phoenix. 

This event was an opportunity for a group of students (Lea Pummer, Evie Wilson, Roan O'Sullivan and Joshy Apaapa-Preston) to meet professional sports players and learn from their experiences. Wellington Phoenix Players shared their experiences of sport in a Q & A session followed by a football skills and games session lead by Capital Football.

YEAR 5/6 CENTRAL ZONE 

HOCKEY TOURNAMENT

On Tuesday members of the year 5/6 syndicate took part in the Central Zones Hockey Tournament at Fraser Park. 

The boy’s squad played exceptionally well winning 5 out of their 6 games, scoring an average of 4 goals per game. The boys finished second in their grade. 

The girl’s squad also played remarkably well, their structured game play and skill set allowed them to out-play their opponents to finish first in their grade. 

The combined efforts of both teams meant that Muritai School finished first overall retaining the Central Zone Cup for the third year in a row. Thank you to all the parents that supported the students on the day. 

Year 7&8 Netball Inter-Zone

Netball Inter-Zone On Tuesday the Year 7 & 8 Netball teams went to the Hutt Valley Netball Tournament. Both teams played 6 games in a row and by the end we needed a rest. The Year 8 team won one of their games and drew another and lost four. The Year 7 team won two games drew one and lost three. Overall it was a very fun experience and all the girls had a ton of fun! We hope we get to do it again next year. By Ella and Neve :D

Term 1 Cross Country 2014

CROSS COUNTRY 2014

 









The second of our big school events, the cross country, was held in the last week of Term 1. We had a change this year with children running a new course, beginning at the Eastbourne Recreation Ground to enable students to run along a flat track and provide a better viewing platform for spectators. 

We also had two grades, an open grade and a championship grade.  The Championship grade was for our fastest runners wishing to qualify for the zone events.  It was a FANTASTIC day, with the weather 'coming to party' too.  Well done to everyone for their efforts on the day.
