Term 1 Sports Highlights

Term 1 Sports:

Seventeen teams represented Kaikorai Primary in Touch, Futsal, Flippa-Ball and Cricket this summer sports season. We also had children involved in T-Ball and Tennis this term.

It has been great to see many children continuing with their sports and a number of new faces joining teams.

As always, our sports teams would not be possible without the support from parents, grandparents and older siblings who give up their time to coach, manage and referee games as well as transport our children to and from games. We cannot thank you enough!

Otago Primary School Swimming Sports:

The Otago Primary School Championships were held on Sunday, the 29th of March, at Moana Pool. Kaikorai School was represented by eight determined swimmers who competed in a range of events throughout the day, including freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and a relay. All swimmers performed exceptionally well, with students gaining personal bests.

A big congratulations goes out to our 10-year-old freestyle relay team of Fynn, Zack, Layla and Poppy, who placed third in their age group.

In-Class Opportunities:

This term, each class had a 30-minute session with Will from Basketball Otago, which was fun and engaging and introduced children to the fundamental skills of basketball.
