SELF BELIEVERS!

Last Sunday children from all over Canterbury participated in the annual Weetbix Tryathlon at Jellie Park.

They could choose to do the three events by themselves or buddy up to complete the swim/bike and then complete the run.

Here are some of the highlights from our AMAZING SELF BELIEVERS...

Alice, liked doing the long bike ride

Lulu liked doing the Tryathlon  by herself and it was her first time

Molly liked doing everything because she did it all by herself

Aydan liked the bike ride because he was passing quite lot of people

Louis liked the swimming and the running and it was his first time!!

Thomas enjoyed the swimming because he does swimming lessons and he found the swim easy peasy

Sasakia enjoyed completing the tryathlon by herself and thought the bike ride was awesome because it a fun ride and passing people

Gray was super awesome because it was his first time and he did all of it and he is so proud of himself for completing it.

Maia liked the run because it was a long way and she was training with Hazel


Lulu was one number away from winning a bike

Zero Waste

Kay Marsh visited us from the City Council to help us explore how we can reduce our rubbish. 


An old pair of jeans turned into a bag! Imagine a library book bag made out of your old jeans!


A tin can phone? How could this work?



Kay told us that for all the rubbish created by all us New Zealanders for 1 month it could fill one rugby field wide

and 30 stories high! That is a lot of rubbish!!

How do you reduce rubbish at your home? Comment below to go in the draw for 2 KC coupons, 1 team player and 1 thinker!
