Year 8 Girls Netball Report!

On the 22^nd of July 2009, 8 teams from our school travelled down to the Morrin Road Netball Courts to compete in the Netball Tournament. There were 4 year 7 teams and 4 year 8 teams that went.

The first team we played against was Howick. That was a challenging game and we lost 10-11.

The next team we challenged was Farmcove. We tried our best to stay in the lead but unfortunately we lost 18-20.

We were all tired but we had another game. This time we versed Baradene. In the beginning we were winning but most of our team players gave up and we drew 8-8.

We had a 10 minute break and then it was time for our next game. It was against Remuera. They were an easy team and we won 17-15.

Wow! That was a very close game

Our last game was against Mission Heights. They were not that hard to beat and in the end we won 11-3.

We had finished playing our games so we went to watch the boys. They played very well. Congratulations to them! We all had a fun but tiring day.

We would like to thank the girls for trying their best and our umpires Rebecca and Mary for coaching us that day.

Amazing Holiday Highlights!!

... A Day At Sylvia Park ...

During the holidays I spent a exciting day at the movies. My family and I watched a new movie called Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince and also Hannah Montana. The movies were really exciting. After that we went to the food courts and had something to eat. The food was delicious. It was getting late so we walked to the car and drove home. We were tired when we got there so we had a little nap...

Swimming Carnival

Aquatics Carnival
On the 27th February 2009 a group of 60 students from Tamaki Intermediate School took part in the Aquatics Carnival at the Panmure Lagoon Centre. We had pulsating races. “Ready, Set, GO! “Yelled Mrs Curran. Then off we went. The boys raced first. It was a hard race but they managed to get to the end. It was finally the girls’ turn. We raced between each other and it was really challenging. We had raced in freestyle, backstroke and breastroke. Finally that was over. At the end we got to do swimming relays. The boys’ joined in. We had to swim with a ball to the end of the pool, and then pass the ball to the next person. It was really fun. We really wanted to stay longer but the time was up and we had to get going. It was a fun day. We all can’t wait until the next Aquatics Carnival.
