Cricket Skills with Ethan...

We had a great session with Ethan who is the regional Cricket Development Officer. We had some great fun in our warm-up games and learnt an excellent game called Cricket Rounders...

PALS training in Greymouth...

A group of Te Kinga students had the day in Greymouth with Sport Canterbury, learning how to be Physical Activity Leaders (PALS). They learnt some new games to teach other children, how to make games fair for everyone and how to moderate games so everyone can play. Our PALS leaders can put their skills to use in the playground and at Ka Pai time!

Statistics and The Census

This term we have studied Statistics for our Maths topic. We have looked at chance and invented some games of chance for others to play. We have also been conducting surveys, learning how to display and interpret data, plus learning about the census. We had a special visit from Latham who explained why it is important for people to take part in the census and then we went for a visit to the Census Caravan!

Midland Line Athletics

We recently had the Midland Line Athletics Competition - and half of our class qualified for the Westland competition coming up next week - GO TE KINGA! It was a stunning day at ANZAC park in Greymouth...

BUSH WALKS

We love our natural environment so we try to get out and enjoy it as much as possible. We have traps to check in the bush but on this walk we didn't catch anything! We are planning to study aspects of the bush throughout the year in 2023.

A visit from the Canterbury Rams...

Our school just loves basketball and we have over half the school in the Monday night Greymouth Schools Competition. A visit from the Canterbury Rams players was a real treat for us...
