‘Motupipi’ Tackle 7’s Champions
Our Tackle 7’s rugby team took out the Golden Bay Tackle 7’s Championship on Tuesday after beating Takaka Blue in
the final 10 -5 in a really hard and tense match. Both teams were determined and focussed on not letting the other gain
victory, but we managed to sneak a win with tries to Alex and Joey.
With the win we qualified for the Nelson / Tasman regional finals to be held in Richmond on 23 September.
The team was Caleb (captain) Oscar, Joey, Cameron, Kegan, Chris, Alex, Riley, Xavier and Tane.
We really lifted out
game in the final
and got more ball
and passed it
more. I was happy
we won and proud
to get into the
Regional Finals in
Nelson.
Kegan
I was nervous at the start then Motupipi kicked so I just
thought about rugby. We started blowing over the top and
got more ball. It was the first time we had won it in 5 years.

Daffodil Day Gala
What an Effort! $1629 Raised
What a great day we had on Daffodil Day last Friday with $1,629 being raised for the Cancer Society.
It was all action and excitement from 9.00am as children started preparing their stalls and made items
for sale and this energy carried on through the day.
Just before the worst part of the day ‘Clean Up” we had a game of soccer: Kids V Staff & Parents, with
neither side wishing to concede. Thankfully the staff & parents
came through 2-1 or else we may have still been playing .
It was exciting in
the morning.
I was excited
because it was
Daffodil Day.
I went on the
obstacle course. I
got sprayed in the
face by Holley.
Daffodil Day is
fun.
Brody
When I woke up I was excited
because it was Daffodil Day.
I spent all my coupons on
food, I had lots of food to
eat. I bought pikelets. They
were yummy because of the
whipped cream. I bought a
sausage because I like
sausages. I look forward to
Daffodil Day next year.
Taylor
I felt happy on Daffodil Day. I
went on the obstacle course. I
also went buying some things
and doing the Bin In Toss and
the Dart Throw. I told mum I
get to sit on the principals
chair. “Cool” she said. Luca

Maths Ideas for Home
Cooking with children using measuring
terms such as 1/2 teaspoon, 250ml of milk
etc…
Shopping - looking for bargains - is it cheaper, by how
much?
How much is in the packet? How heavy is the packet?
Play - Guess the number
Child - I’m thinking of a number between 1 & 100
Parent - Is it more than 50?
Is it an even number?
Is it more than 20 but less than 30?
