Oamaru Intermediate / James Hargest Junior High Sports Exchange August 10-11 August 2022

By Rebecca Meek | Posted: Wednesday August 3, 2022

We are super excited that this time next week we will have welcomed James Hargest onsite. Unfortunately, due to Health and Safety Policies, James Hargest will be staying at Camp Iona instead of being billeted. We are still going to be peering students from James Hargest with a class to allow students to mix with others.

We have included the time table of events below so please note that there will be no weekly basketball next Wednesday however, you are more than welcome to come along and support the students playing.

If your child is intending on watching the sport on Wednesday night we do ask that you come with them. We will need a hand at the end of night for a general clean up at the Recreation Centre.

The social on Thursday night is free and open to students who have participated in a team or event. If your child is coming to the social, we ask that they leave their cell phone at home. We will be selling water, lollies and glow sticks - all $1 each.

I would like to make a special mention of Sharon Wilson who does an outstanding job at organising this event.
