East Zones Athletics Championship

On the 15 of November 2011 16 schools gathered to compete in the South East Zones Athletics Championship. About 1000 people competing in the events. The events were high jump, long jump, shot put, discus, sprints, relay and distance.

We Competed at Hansen park in Opawa. During the sprints lots of people were cheering for their friends! While we were cheering the people doing the sprints, the school beside us started to copy us. There were lots of schools

There were lots of other schools such as Redcliff’s , Sumner , Woolston , Bromley and many more schools taking part.

The people who were cheering mostly cheered for people taking  part in the 1000 metre run. People from our school occasionally cheered for

The person who was currently last place because they felt sorry for the person! Lots of people were asking Mr Mc Innes questions about what time they would do their next event! Heaps of people had to wait for their turn to do an event. It was a very long day away from school. A few people from our school made it to centrals! At the end of the day everyone felt happy and proud of their scores! J Thank you for reading!

Planting Flowers

On Tuesday the 25^th of October St Anne’s School walked down to the old nugget factory which was damaged in the February Earthquake and was later pulled down.

When we got down there we met a man called Andrew who told us what we would be doing. He gave each person a spice shaker with sawdust and wild flower seeds in it and we found our own area and sprinkled the seeds.

We then went and got into pairs and got an old sack and filled it with mushroom compost and sprinkled this over the seeds.

We hope it grows into a beautiful place where people can go and enjoy.
