Rugby - Champs of BOP/PB Gisborne Intermediate can claim to be the top school at the annual BOP/PB Rugby Champs. Our girls team swept all before them in an unbeaten run which resulted in them comfortably winning their division. The boys were the real surprise package and after a string of great peformances throughout the day made the final, only to fall at the last hurdle. Our thanks go to Mr Barclay, Mr Lord and Mr Hart for their dedication in coaching the teams. Yet more reasons to be extremely proud of our students!

Buzz the People Ok everyone - especially Brothers, Uncles, Dads and Grandads.
So far SEVEN people have registerd with Buzz the People and are filling out the occasional online survey. To date those seven people have meant we received a cheque for $43.00. Not much you may think - and you are right, but if 70 people registered and took the time to fill out the occasional online survey - that would be $430.00! Lets be optomistic 700 people could return $4300!!!
There is a shortage of males taking the surveys - it costs nothing but time. Soooooo, basically the more people involved the more money the school makes. We would like to use this money to sponsor students to take part in school based activites where there is a cost attached.
A great fundraising venture that costs nothing other than a little time. The link is at the bottom of Student of the Week column.

Yummy Stickers for P.E. Gear
|
|
Sports equipment 2010 If you are eating apples over summer and they have yummy stickers on them could you please print off the attachment and stick them on. Your class can hand them in at the beginning of the term.
We raised $257 towards gear averaging only 4 apples per student for the entire year in 2008. Sixteen apples average would give us $1000 to spend!!!
