Camps
Every year, Y4-6 students go on camp in Term 4. We currently alternate camps between three venues over a three year cycle - Mt Cook, Living Springs (Christchurch), and Wellington. Senior students from Albury School also join us on these camps.
While the seniors are on camp, the juniors also focus on outdoor experiences and adventures at school and in the surrounding area, making full use of our wonderful location in the Mackenzie.

Music
We are lucky to be able to offer specialist music lessons by an experienced local music teacher. Piano, ukelele, and guitar are instruments often heard on site during class time.

Jump Jam
We enter a team into this annual event in Timaru. It is always very popular with our students and we are lucky enough to draw on the expertise of local parents who manage and organise the team over the Term 2 period.

Kapa Haka
We have developed a close relationship with the Kapa Haka group at Mackenzie College and are offering more opportunities for students to develop their haka and waiata skills at school.

Student Leadership
Our senior students' leadership skills are a focus in their last year. They are leaders of the school and they organise and involve a number of school events. They also attend the National Young Leaders Day in Christchurch each year.
