Countdown is phasing out single use plastic carrier bags by the end of 2018. That means 350 million less plastic bags in our environment every year!

Just download the template, design your environmentally-friendly bag and upload it here for your chance to win your artwork design featured on bags in Countdown stores nationwide.
The winner will also win an awesome trip for their school class to learn about conservation and the New Zealand environment!

FUTSAL and Assemby

Thursday was our introduction to FUTSAL. Sam came along to Ilam school to teach us skills. We all enjoyed it. He will be back each Thursday for the next 4 weeks. 

Thursday was also Assembly day and it was taken by the ESOL team. Well done to the Junior ESOL students for the great singing. Also congratulations to our students, Jannah, Methuki and Vanshika for their great speaking and being in charge of the computers. 






BASKETBALL

On Monday there was a basketball tournament held at Bishopdale YMCA. 
What a fantastic display of sportsmanship shown by all of the Ilam Thunder team members. What was even better is that they won the competition. This means that they will represent the West Zone at the Centrals competition in June. 







Buddy Class

On Wednesday we were lucky enough to work with our buddy class on an art activity. We all worked really well with each other. 




ASK ME ABOUT

The first 2 weeks of this term have been full on, lots of things happening. 

Kate Lundy: Maggies mum came in and spoke to us about her time when she played for Southern Sting, (which is now known as Southern Steele) She told us about her challenges, her training and laying career. Thanks so much Kate, it was awesome to listen to you!




George and Michael showing us their flip skills.
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME:)



CRUSADERS VISIT

We had a couple of Crusaders come to visit us. They shared information about themselves and then we had a question session. Our students who were playing in the Rugby Fun Day had time to have a skills session with them.
