Student Activities

Students have a variety of extra-curricular activities

Netball 

Netball is a combination of basketball and ultimate Frisbee with zones.  The hoop does not have a backboard.  There is no dribbling allowed, only passing the ball.  Also, players much stay in zones.  The girls wear skirts when playing.  Netball is also played in New Zealand 


 

After the game the girls on both teams for for a 'group hug' . 



Rugby

Rugby is big for the boys.  They have a 7 and 15 man team. 

The Sevens tournament was played at the Sports Center

 15 man games are played at St. Joseph, a neighboring school

 The coach got a student to hold an umbrella for shade. 

School Dances

We had a school dance to kick off the new year.  

 No dance would be complete without a 'limbo contest' 

Touring groups visiting Samoa

Quite a few dance or music groups like to visit Samoa.  Sometimes they will play a free concert to the student or perform their dances.  

Culture Cruise Concert


The student do a clap routine to show their appreciation.


Student Assemblies 

The students periodically get together for assemblies.  All are held in an 'open air' gym.  


 Grooming standards.  Girls can only wear their hair in a braid while they have their uniforms on.   This year they expanded the rule and they can wear two 'pig tails'.
