Adventure Race

Last week we entered two teams into the Year 7 & 8 adventure race.

This was a new event for our school. Adventure racing involves teams completing lots of challenges and tasks - some of them known and some of them surprises.

Hanna, Kura and Emma entered The "Tui Mato" team and enjoyed biking through lots of mud. They came 14th

Morgan, Gus and Guy entered as the Tinui "Coasties" came first.

We are really proud of both teams as they used team work, persistence and accuracy to compete in this event.

Well Done

Piano Concert

Today we held our piano concert!

Mr Caldwell our piano tutor works with 9 students every Monday and at the end of each term they perform to the whole school and any parents who come to watch.

This term Count Von Musica lead our performance.

We are very proud of our piano students. We also had Paige, Raiden and Miss Hutchings sang a Justin Bieber song.

Well done.

Cross Country

Last week Tinui School hosted the rural schools Cross Country.

Thankfully the weather was kind to us - if a little cold.

All the children ran really well - giving it everything they had.

This week 19 students are going to represent the school at the Interzone Cross Country at Rathkeale College.

We are very proud of our children and hope that they do well.

Our Cross Country was muddy and great and our hill climb claimed a few shoes!
Thank you so much to our parents who put on a great BBQ and a lovely afternoon tea.

Enviro Kids

Our Enviro team have been working on a marketing campaign for our Wormilizer fertilizer.

They have been designing labels and posters and have now recorded themselves doing a short ad.

Well done the Enviro team.
You can also check it out on Youtube just search for "Wormilizer"

ANZAC DAY

Anzac day is very special in our community as Tinui held the first ever ANZAC service in New Zealand.
Each year there is a special service held at the community hall and students from the school are chosen to speak. This is a huge honour and we are proud of them.

This year the classes have learned more about ANZAC day through books and artwork and discussions.

We have had a great start to the term.
