Happy Birthday Owairaka

Today was a very Special day at 9:00 Owairaka assembled. Today was Owairaka District School's Birthday, also the art exhibition opened and one of the Members from Rm:25 were honoured to help cut the cake. Someone famous that really liked art also. Her name was Sarah and her kids Niko and Luke also come to this School. 

Fun Fact: In 1929 Owairaka used to be named Richardson Rd School. Then in 1930 it was named Owairaka.Fun Fact: cake was cut by the Oldest and Youngest students here. which were Mushdah (from our class) and Jamie.Sheryl Fletcher also talked about the history of Owairaka and those who came to this School and who left. 

Also the Kapa Haka played a role in the Birthday we were the ones that lead the School Song

When it was getting to the end the whole School done the School Song and the Kapa Haka leaded that we were the ones who had to do the actions and everybody had to follow what we done.

Happy Birthday Owairaka.
