Dancing With Mythology

27 October 2020 · by Miss Skipper

What a wonderful day Arohanui had at the Vodafone Event Centre in Manukau. We danced and twirled. We swayed and jumped. We crept and crawled. It was a very busy day creating our own dances.

Year 7&8 Scripture Cup

20 September 2020 · by Miss Sharma

Congratulations to Monique Chandra for winning our Year 7&8 Scripture cup for 2020 and to Contance Ah- Kuoi for placing 2nd and Julia Jinu 3rd. A huge thank you to Fr Soane for being our special guest judge.

Well done to all 6 of our intermediate Scripture cup finalists.

Holy Cross Week Dance Display

20 September 2020 · by Miss Skipper

Room 2 practised hard to get their dance just right and students put in their best effort and overcome their stage fright to put on a show.

It took a lot of practice and here it is. Enjoy!!

Room 2 Scripture Cup

20 September 2020 · by Miss Skipper

This year there were two readings to choose from a reading from St Paul’s letters to the Philippians and a reading from the Book of Numbers. Each student worked hard to prepare their readings.

The reading needed to be clear, confident and reverent.

Our Arohanui winners were 1st Eden (R1A), 2nd Tateama (R3) and 3rd Angelin (R3). Well done to these three and to all who participated. Ka pai koutou.

Crazy Hair Day

13 September 2020 · by Miss Skipper

In celebration of Book Week, Arohanui presented their poem “Saw My Teacher on a Saturday” by Dave Crawley at our Crazy Hair Day Assembly. What a fun week we’ve had focusing on poetry.

Many of us brushed, styled, coloured, dyed, plaited, wigged our hair to create some crazy styles.
