On Tuesday May 21st, 70 year 5-8 children travelled to the Christchurch Town Hall to take part in Showquest. Our theme this year was to introduce and explain our school values. We did this through a modern version of the Wizard of Oz, taking a spin towards social media.
The children competed against 6 High Schools and 1 other primary school. Although Burnside High School took away most of the awards on the evening, our children did an outstanding job and looked absolutely amazing! KNS could not have been more proud of the way performed! Well done to all involved and thank you to the parents who helped out along the way and on the day!
The mighty Tōtara tree stands tall and proud. It protects those smaller than itself. In ancient times it was used to build waka that carried hundreds of warriors and build whare to protect people from the earths elements. As the team gifted with the name tōtara, we take on much of it’s meaning. We protect those who are younger than us and we support others by encouraging them, and being active role models in our kura. We are the leaders of KNS.
