Uniform Sub Committee

The Board of Trustees has received several requests from parents within our school community to consider a compulsory uniform for the school. 

In regards to this request, a sub-committee will be established to manage the process, ensuring a wide consultation with the school community. The information will be gathered by this committee, shared with the school community followed by a presentation of findings to the Board.

If you would like to be part of this sub-committee please register your interest at the school office by 28 September 2012.

Sports Tournament

Year 5-6 Winter Sports 2012 Tournament
On the 18th of September 65 Woodstock School children were involved in the Year 5-6 Winter Sports Tournament at Southwell School. We entered a hockey team, two netball teams, two rippa-rugby teams and two soccer teams.

 The games were played in a pool play competition. The winner of each pool played off in the semi-finals. The two winning teams of each semi-final went on to meet in the final. Our Yr5-6 hockey team played extremely well and made the finals, coming runners up to Southwell.

All children played with lots of enthusiasm and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. A big congratulations to Kate Monkley, Ben Rowe, Ratu Kuruduadua, and Lela Ieremia who received Fair Play Awards.

Thank you to the following coaches/managers: Natalie Campbell, Lisa Steed, Ann Monahan, Darren Namua, David Cashmore and Suzanne Brown. Without you we wouldn’t have been able to compete at the Winter Sports Tournament. Also thank you to David Wolfe for taking all the fantastic photographs for us.
