Here are some actions shots from Athletics Day. We all tried our very best and had a fantastic time!

Powhiri for Pania and Room 16

Today at school there was a special powhiri to welcome Pania and Room 16 to Muritai School. At 10 o'clock we met Pania, her family and friends from Te Puna Kohanga Reo at the school gate. Then we were welcomed across the playground and into the hall by members of the Kapa Haka group. In the hall there were lots of songs, speeches and even a haka!
