The second heat for this took place here at Kenakena School last Tuesday May 10th. After an amazing performance during the competition (and one perfect round!) our Junior (and Senior) teams both made it through to the finals.
Unfortunately we didn't place in the finals held last Friday in Waikanae...but we are very proud of their amazing efforts.

BOOK QUIZ
Over the past six weeks Kenakena’s two Book Quiz groups have been preparing for a competition which schools around Kapti have entered in one or two teams each. In Kenakena’s year five and six group are Lily Edwards, Tara Keene, Isaac Linston, Vienna Jermyn, and Ella Kirby. The year seven and eight group is, Jordan Coventry, Finn Fox, Jamie Eaton, Krystal Wright, and Grace Lindsay. Each of these two teams have been had to read 15 books (fiction, non-fiction and picture books.) We have been working very hard studying each of the books. Both of the teams got into the finals which are taking place this Friday, the 13th of May. I think we will do well! Thanks to the teachers that have helped us prepare for this quiz. I’m so excited that we’re in the finals!
