Eden Albert Swim Champs

 Congratulations to our swim team who represented Owairaka at the Eden Albert Swim Champs last week.  Mrs Landall was very proud of the way they showed Manaakitanga for their team mates and she said they  all swam well considering it was a new environment for them.  

Thank you to the parents for their transport, time keeping and coming along to support the children.  Thank you also to Sam Lyons for coaching the team.

The team were (from left): Jasmine, Samantha, Rose, Navala, Dayelle & Lucy (absent).
