Here is Taylor Allan running. Mrs Sweney is cheering her on. Taylor is running her hardest to come in 1st place. She came 4th and is very proud of it. When Taylor was running she was saying to her self "Come on Taylor come on."
Ms McNeil trained her for cross-country and she has come very far.Taylor has trained for cross-country for weeks, on the school field and the river track, before the big race in Omarama [on the 16th September].Well done Taylor!

Guitar playing at Assembly

Briar and Georgia  played the Lazy Song at assembly. They changed some of the bad words around so it sounded better and more responsible. The new lyrics are great! They are also funny .
Also at assembly, some students shared their Acrostic poems about DROUGHT. There is a serious drought at the moment in the Horn of Africa.
