Our Inquiry this term is “What does it mean to be a New Zealander?” All of our classes have been studying the many cultures that make up New Zealand today. As part of this, some teams have had visits from guest speakers. The Rua and Wha teams were both visited by Margaret Copeland, a storyteller who becomes a character from the first settlers, and tells the students what life was like for those who came to settle in a new country.

The Wha team also had a visit from Mike Cron, the All Black scrum doctor, who spoke about what it is like to be an All Black.

S6 and their buddies M10 combined to have a gumboot decorating competition. After the judging the classes went to Dudley Park for a gumboot throwing competition.
