Well Done Rodney Schools!!

A big congratulations go today to Mahurangi and Orewa College Kids Lit teams who both came third in their respective heats for the Auckland region on Friday.

Orewa College were up first in the afternoon heat and came in third behind Bucklands Beach Intermediate and Glen Eden Intermediate. In the evening it was Mahurangi's turn, doing the Rodney region proud by repeating the third placing behind Belmot and Kowhai Intermediates respectively.

That's a huge achievement when you consider how many schools there are in the Auckland Region and that each school can enter two teams. So well done to everyone involved.

The finals of the national Kids Lit competition will be held this Sunday as part of the Storylines Festival at the Aoteo Centre (more on that later in the week). If you want to find out more about the competition, hit the link to the Kids Lit website, find out all about and try the sample questions to see how you go.
