What an awesome day at our Taniwha Challenge Cross Country! Tamariki from schools across our rohe came together for a day of running, mud, determination and whanaungatanga. Ngā mihi to all our schools, whānau, volunteers and supporters who helped make the day such a success!

Our Te Horo whānau recently climbed Manukorihi Maunga, one of our three school maunga. It was awesome to see our tamariki encouraging one another and showing teamwork and perseverance to reach the summit together. Ngā mihi to Papa Mike for sharing the history of the maunga and its connection to our tūpuna, and to Matua Chris for organising this unforgettable experience. Ka mau te wehi!

Our tamariki proudly represented Te Horo School at the Hika-Riki Matariki Celebration in Hikurangi. It was a wonderful day of culture, performance and whanaungatanga with schools from across the rohe. We were especially proud to see all of our tamariki perform with confidence and pride. What a special way to celebrate Matariki together.

Our tamariki had a fantastic time celebrating Wear Yellow for Harold Day and we were lucky enough to have Harold the Giraffe himself join us! Thanks to the generosity of our school community, we raised over $200 to support the amazing work of Life Education and the positive messages they share with young people. It was awesome to see our tamariki dressed in their brightest yellow outfits as they got behind this wonderful kaupapa.

Congratulations to Kraig Ormsby, who took out the Year 7–8 category in this year's Rotary Photo Competition! The judges praised Kraig’s keen photographic eye and his ability to capture the simplicity of the theme, "Bolts," in a way that evoked a range of emotions and interpretations. We are incredibly proud of Kraig and this outstanding achievement.

This term, our school has entered a Year 4–6 basketball team in the Whangārei Schools competition. Travelling into town each Wednesday afternoon, our tamariki have played some awesome games and represented our kura with pride. We look forward to watching them continue to grow and compete throughout the rest of the season.
