The Interhouse Gala

Friday 30 January was an exiting day filled with cheering and swimming, sunshine and water. The children were very well behaved and supported their teams enthusiastically.

The competition was VERY close with house positions being swapped right until the end. Mr Norel kept everyone very excited with his constant updates. Grade 2 up to Grade 7 swimmers dived and swam and smiled and grimaced their way to the finish until they were exhausted. Good sportsmanship and fantastic support were the order of the day. Samson  was awarded the Spirit Cup and David won the day with Caleb in second place.

Some enthusiastic teachers and parents competed as well. A relay was swum between teachers and parents which the teachers won! Congratulations to everyone involved and thank you to the teachers, especially Mr McNab, for helping everything run smoothly.

Doodle4Google Awards Ceremony

As a school with one of the highest entries into the Doodle4Google competion, 10 NWCS learners were invited to attend the Award Ceremony on 29 November at Arts on Main. One of the judges was  Sven Ruygrok, who plays the part of Rambo in the movie Spud. Another was Yvonne Chaka Chaka who gave us an impromptu performance.
There was so much to do...

and eat...


We all had a great time, eating from the donut wall, drawing, painting, building, watching the 3-d printer and making music with fruit and sweets. We're hoping there will be another competition this year!
