Outstanding Sports Items

We have a large number of Awatapu sports uniforms that have not been returned and are now well overdue. Please remind your son/daughter to return their uniform asap. Missing items will be invoiced to their account. Thanks in advance.

Scholarship Success

Congratulations to Annelies Orme and Bobby Pritchard who were awarded full sponsorships to attend an Outward Bounds course during the October holidays. Annelies and Bobby joined 12 other students from around the Manawatu and embarked on a 21 day outdoor experience in Anakiwa. During the course, students went rock climbing, kayaking, tramping, had daily swims in the ocean and spent two nights alone in the bush. The experience taught the students many lessons, most importantly "you can do anything you set your mind to". 

Congratulations also to Lucy Scrivener who has been awarded a scholarship from Rongotea Lions Club to attend an Outdoor Pursuits Challenge in December.

Judo Champ

Congratulations to Briar Beals on her outstanding judo achievements this year. In August Briar competed in the North Wellington Judo Champs in Palmerston North, winning two golds, one silver and one bronze. She then competed in the North Island Judo Champs in Auckland, winning a silver and bronze. Well done!
