A Picture Tells 1000 Words


This picture of Eva tells the Story of our Try-Challenge today. Her smile, give it a go attitude, sense of accomplishment, parental support and the fun she is having was shared by all our children. 

Aged 5 - 12 all of our students take part in our annual Try-Challenge event. They begin with a swim in our pool, followed by a ride around a 'fun' course designed by our past principal Bob Moffitt, and finish off with a run around the perimeter of our school. We even had a team entry this year by our teachers.

Some families bring a picnic or grab a Sausage sizzle, juicy or baking by our PTA which adds to the festive, family feel.

If you were able to come today, thank you, we loved seeing you supporting your children and joining in our fun. If you were unable to attend click on this link to see some photos of the day.

Wish you a safe and happy weekend.

  1. This is a lovely photo, it really captures how Eva felt as she crossed the finish line. Thank you for an awesome family afternoon. Having the older children helping the younger children really made it a fun event for the younger ones, Eva's helper was amazing! :)

  2. Yes Ange, that's just what I thought! Our older children love being helpers on our sports days, it definitely is a unique part of our culture here at Puketaha School. We are so glad Eva enjoyed her first Try-Challenge!!
