Today, our dedicated readers participated in the annual Book Battle competition. A massive congratulations to all of our students from Years 5–8 who took part and represented our school with such immense pride.

A special shout-out and congratulations to our fantastic Year 8 team, who took out first place in the Year 7/8 division! Given the mountain of reading you've done, you all definitely deserve a couple of days off after that epic effort. Way to go, team!

Today, we welcomed Maungatapere School to our grounds for an action-packed interschool sports competition. On the menu for our Year 5/6 and Year 7/8 students were high-energy rounds of Hungerball and Dodgeball.
We kicked off the day by welcoming our visitors with three beautiful waiata performed by our Year 7/8 Kapa Haka students, before jumping straight into the sporting action. It was a fantastic afternoon, and our students truly exemplified our school values through their excellent sportsmanship and hospitality.
A massive thank you to Maungatapere for making the trip over! Full results and highlights will be posted in our upcoming newsletter.

🎈 Flying High at Matarau School 🎈

Matarau School recently welcomed the Flying High Project, bringing the excitement of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics) to our students.

Thirty lucky students experienced a tethered hot air balloon flight, followed by an inspiring presentation from Andrew Parker, who shared stories from his travels around the world.

The visit encouraged students to think differently, embrace new experiences, and explore the many opportunities the world has to offer. 🌍✨

A huge thank you to Andrew from the Flying High Project for his time and effort in traveling north to visit our school. We really appreciated the opportunity.

Hey Whānau, Here is our Sport Schedule for this week. A great week of sport ahead. Good luck everyone.
