Feet First - Walk To School

 With 'i save the world' being such a strong part of our school,  Walk to School Wednesday has been an extension of that. All classes are keeping a record of the children who walk, bus, bike, scooter or skateboard to school.  As you can see there are quite a few ways to get to school that do not involve driving the car!

 Sanitarium Breakfast                       

Papamoa School won  a special prize in the 2008 nation-wide Feet First Competition, and all our students were treated to a nice big healthy breakfast, compliments of Sanitarium.   We were joined by our "mystery" sports celebrity,  Steven Ferguson.  Steven  represented NZ in kayaking at the  Olympic Games in Beijing.

Steven joined all the students at the Gordon Spratt Reserve and walked back to school with them.  The children really enjoyed listening to his speech and watching him give out awards to some of our 'i save the world' marshalls. He also  signed autographs.
