Trip To The Cloud| The Olympics Fan Zone

Today the senior school visited the NZHQ the olympics fan zone at the cloud in the city. It was a fabulous start to our week. We got to meet Alexis Pritchard who is a highly successful retired boxer. She talked to us about how she became a boxer and an olympian. She talked to us about the olympic values which are excellence, friendship and respect. She shared how her never giving up attitude helped her achieve her dreams she thought could never come true and being an olympian was one of them. 
It was such a great trip. Thank you to Mr Herlihy (our principal) and Mrs Tupou Fonua for organising this trip for us.
