Students at Work

A glimpse of the classroom.

'Top of the Rock'

This year Kaiwaka School was involved in running a gala type function around the 'Top of the Rock'. We had lots of fun especially the students who came and helped with the fun races.

Camp 2011

We had an awesome time at camp this year. Lots of challenging activities that encouraged team work. We were also really successful in forming guidelines to keep everyone safe. Enjoy our photos - especially the ones of the water fight. The teachers got really wet!

Christchurch Earthquake

On Thursday we dressed up in black and red to support the people of Christchurch. We raise over $200 to be sent down. Lots of the children did jobs at home to earn the money they gave.

Cricket

Today we had Bert visit and teach Room 5 some cricket skills. It was lots of fun and the students became very competitive.
