tournament. The tournament was played in

Muritai 1 only lost 1 of 5 games and Muritai 2 also played well.
We had some
really positive feedback from one of the parents that attended:
“I also wanted to
let you know what a pleasure it was to attend this event with the girls. It was awesome to see how they supported each
other, had some fantastic chants on the sideline and represented Muritai to the
standards you would expect. The school
can be very proud of them.”
Well done girls!

Muritai School Values
*Last week our
goal was to show courtesy. This week we are focusing on RESPECT. There have been a number of incidents
recently that have shown a lack of respect for others and their property. One most important values we have as citizens
is respect. Respect encompasses our 4Cs,
it means to show consideration for; treat courteously or kindly. We need to be appreciating and
respecting others differences and uniqueness- protecting others- especially if
they are new and you notice someone giving them a hard time.
