Ruru Team Year 3 students are loving Funky Fun Day! Funky Fun Day offers a fun, non-competitive day of sports for primary school children in Years 1–4. Held at Mercury Baypark Arena, students enjoy skill-based coaching and friendly games in sports like badminton, football, floorball, miniball and bowls!
