Super 6 Sports

Tuesday 23rd August was yet another proud day for Whakarongo School. We were once again fortunate to be involved in the Super 6 sporting competition held in Paihiatua. 40 students from years 5 and 6 did the school proud with the way they conducted themselves on and off the field/court. We had some great results go our way, especially with the soccer. Although we didn’t win the competition outright we managed a very credible 4th equal. Thanks must go to the parents who came and supported us on the day, as well as those parents who helped in the preparation of the teams. Finally thank you to the students who made a day a great success.
