Hockey Tournament

A frosty morning greeted all of the brave students who were participating in the annual hockey tournament on 6 July. It was held on the second last day of term two. St Mary’s, Tokoiti, Waihola and Clutha Valley came over to challenge Milton Primary School.  It was really cold and slippery at the start but that didn’t stop us. M.P.S had six teams entered but only one team made it into the semis. Some children got hurt in the games (mostly from slipping on the ice), but they kept playing and we all had to work together to get goals and try to stop the other team from scoring. In the end St Mary’s Gold and M.P.S Green were in the final for first and second place. M.P.S Green were the champions and St Mary’s Gold came second. We loved having the students from the high school reffing us. It was a long and hard day but we all thought it was definitely a lot of fun!
