Sports Camp 2021


A group of 35 Year 7 and 8 students travelled down to Tōtara Springs in Matamata on Monday for the annual Sports Camp. After a foggy drive down, students and staff had a beautiful clear day to begin their week of sports. Students completed athletics, swimming, and scramball on Day 1. Today is their first full day with 18 sports in action. More updates to come.
