What's happening at Manurewa Central

Check out some of the events, activities and fund raisers we have throughout the school year.




Chess

This term our chess team has competed in two tournaments the South Auckland Primary School Chess Championship and the Papatoetoe Central School Chess Invitational.

In each of these tournaments our team has placed 2nd.

At the South Auckland Championship Toby won a prize for being the top board 1 player.

At the invitational Vivian received a prize for being the top girl player and Amin received a prize for being top board 4 player.

It is amazing to watch the skill and sportsmanship of these young players. We are looking forward to competing more in the next two terms.




Interschool Swimming

The MPSSA Swimming Carnival was held on Tuesday, the 27th of February.

We had a great day, despite the drizzly weather in the morning. Our team made Manurewa Central School proud with the effort they put into their races as well as the fantastic sportsmanship they displayed.

Our team was awarded 1st in sportsmanship for the support they showed their team as well as students from other schools.

We received the final overall times and placings, and the overall placegetters are as follows: Micah Scorringe gained 3 firsts, Lucy Head gained a third, Mackenzie Millett gained 2 firsts, Charlotte Messine gained a first, Phillip Vela-Tito came away with a third, Sadie Maletino-Peri gained a third, Akaiti Henry came away with 2 third places, and Lyla Munro gained a first.

The girls' relay team also placed 3rd overall, and the boys came 2nd equal. A great effort by all our students. A huge thank you to all our supporters on the day; you were a fantastic support for us all!
