Sports Roundup

As Term 2 comes to a close, winter sport is well underway.  Returning to College in term 3 will see code semis and finals start in week 4 in the build-up to Winter Tournament Week at the beginning of September.  

Our year 7 and 8 students have been busy participating in several winter sports activities.

Swimming Inter-school

A strong team of swimmers attended our annual Ōtaki Inter-School Swimming Competition.  Ōtaki College A relay team combined with Waitohu School to win the mixed relay.  Fabolous swimming from Deryn Watkins saw her dominate in her races.  

Cross Country 

Congratulations to all of our cross-country runners who took part in the Ōtaki Cross Country.  A number of students then ran in the Kāpiti Interschool Cross Country with Te Akau Williams and Tumaka Martin making it through to the Regional Cross Country.  

Football 

Last week our football players took part in the Te Horo Annual School Football Tournament where they were runners up - a huge thank you to Sam Whitt who coached this team.  

Basketball 

Congratulations to our girl's basketball team who won the year 7 and 8 Levin competitions, remaining unbeaten.  

Football Referees

A huge thank you to Giorgio Bevan, Logan Boyer, Sean Davis and Nicky Te Wiata for their amazing refereeing skills at the Ōtaki Inter-school Football Competition.  Feedback from the organiser, parents and players was fantastic.  Well done.
