On Monday the 17th of March the Mangorei School students, years 4 to 8, went to Highlands Intermediate for their swimming sports. Everyone was excited about going to a new area to swim. The day was fine and sunny, everyone behaved well and were good team members, cheering their team mates on.
We have two new life guards, Lauren Giddy and Ben Curry, who carried out their duties excellently.
Everybody tried their best and it came out as a success. The swimmers that got placed first, second or third went to Bell Block to compete.
