Yesterday, Tahuna Intermediate had the privilege of hosting the annual Oamaru Exchange, welcoming students and staff from Oamaru Intermediate School for a fantastic day of sport, competition and connection.

Students competed across rugby, football, hockey, netball, basketball and chess, showcasing skill, determination and sportsmanship throughout the day. It was wonderful to see so many students embracing the opportunity to represent their school, challenge themselves and support their teammates.

A huge thank you to all of our staff, coaches, managers, officials and volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the day ran smoothly. From venue preparation and transport coordination to coaching and supervision, your efforts were greatly appreciated.

We would also like to extend a massive thank you to King's High School for their outstanding support of the exchange. King's High School provided the majority of the umpires and referees across our sporting fixtures, and their contribution played a significant role in the success of the day. The professionalism, enthusiasm and commitment shown by their students ensured games were played in a positive and enjoyable environment, and we are incredibly grateful for their support.

Thank you also to Oamaru Intermediate School for making the trip south and contributing to another memorable exchange. The spirit in which all teams competed was a credit to both schools and highlighted everything that is great about school sport.

These exchanges provide so much more than results, they create opportunities for students to build friendships, develop resilience, show leadership and make lasting memories.

Congratulations to all students who represented Tahuna yesterday. You were outstanding ambassadors for our school.

The draw for tomorrow's Oamaru Exchange is attached below.

A reminder that the official welcome and afternoon tea are for students only. However, we would love to see parents, whānau, and supporters on the sidelines throughout the day supporting all of our teams and helping create a great atmosphere for this special event.

We look forward to welcoming our visitors from Oamaru and wish all students the very best for a fantastic day of sport and connection.

Year 7 & 8 Rugby Day Update

A small update to this week's Rugby Day at King's High School. Fabian is unfortunately no longer available to attend, with former All Black and Highlander Ben Smith now involved in the session.

This is a great opportunity for our Year 7 and 8 students to develop their skills, enjoy the game, and learn from experienced coaches and players.

We thank King's High School for including our students in the day and look forward to seeing everyone make the most of the opportunity.

Another day, another sporting opportunity at Tahuna!

Today we welcomed Oscar from Otago Rugby League, who introduced students to the game and taught the fundamental skills of rugby league.

Despite the cold conditions, the group showed great enthusiasm, got stuck in, and had plenty of fun while learning something new.

A big thank you to Oscar for sharing his knowledge and helping provide another fantastic sporting experience for our students.
