🌻Appreciation Post 🌻
Special thank you to all the whanau that contributed to a successful Rugby and Netball Day.
The donated baking was delicious and our stall was busy all day. Thank you Whaea Rocky and Elias for your mahi, the shop was a huge success.

Thank you to our parent managers and coaches, without you we wouldn’t be able to participate in days like this where every student from Year 1-8 gets to participate. Big mihi Whaea Ashlee for organising our teams.

Special mention to the wonderful students who came out to referee at Rugby! Whakatāne High School - Te Kura Tuarua ō Te Mānuka Tūtahi

Lastly thank you to Vikki-Ann for organising the use of the Matata Rugby Fields and making sure our games ran to time.

Check out our kids enjoying their day 🌸
