Coaching with the Silver Ferns

Today 10 Glenbrae Girls were lucky enough to be selected to go to St Kentigern's College in Pakuranga to train with New Zealand's best. The Silver Ferns. Not only them, but the premier team from St Kentigerns' College, who placed second in the nationals this year. 

It was a stellar day and we all learned a lot of great netball (and dance) skills from our coaches. Watch out on their personal blogs for the full story.

Netball Tournament

On Wednesday the 12th of August Glenbrae School had the pleasure of competing in an inter-school Netball tournament. Three teams and 30 students from Years 5 to 8 competed. The day was a great triumph of fairplay and good sportsmanship with the three teams really working together.

In the year 5 team our most valuable player awards went to Danny and Mary, with Amelia getting most improved player.

In the year 6 team our most valuable player awards went to Luisa and Fineasi, with Angelica getting the most improved player award.

Well done to everyone who came along and made it a great successful day.
Thanks to the parents for coming to support and coaches Mrs Tofa (Year 5), Mrs Parker (Year 6), and Ms Atuahiva (Year 7/8). Also a big thank you to Ms Maruariki for coming along on the day to support the Year 5 team.
