Seal

Today Ryder was a little late to school as he had been watching the seal that was on the Wanganui River. He took some photos and brought them in to show us. Thanks Ryder.

USA Rugby Team

Yesterday the American Rugby team were welcomed to Wanganui. They went down the river in a Waka. There was a great crowd to welcome them. Nikora was lucky to meet them at the Putiki Marae and his brother and grandfather got to help paddle the waka.

Take a look at the Wangnaui Chronicle website to read more about the American rugby team. http://www.wanganuichronicle.co.nz/
