Sports
At Oruaiti School all students participate in a variety of sports according to the season of the year
In summer the students have a daily swimming lesson including one lesson each week with a sports specialist. Our students participate in inter-school sports whenever possible. These events include:
Swimming
Rippa Rugby
Hockey
Soccer
Rugby
Netball
Cross country Running
Athletics
Oruaiti school supports our students participation in Saturday sports events. Owing to our relatively small numbers we are unable to field Saturday soccer or rugby teams as there are insufficient numbers of students of any one size or age so we encourage the children to participate by joining an Eastern club team. However, we endeavour to have several netball teams.
We have some wonderfully supportive parents who are willing to give their time to assist in coaching sports teams.
