Country Schools hold swimming sports

The Country Schools — Ngamatea, Orautoha and Rangataua — held their annual swimming sports at the Burns Pool in Waiouru on Wednesday 28 March. Because these country schools have such small rolls | (Ngamatea 11, Orautoha 16 and Rangataua 43) they conduct their own sports events instead of trying to compete against the 452strong Waiouru, 293-strong Ohakune and 331-strong Raetihi primary schools. The Country School's swimming events are designe,d to Cater for all ages hence one called 'walking'. This, we were assured, was walking thrcugh water and not on water and was for the very young non-swimmers. Results 5 year walking: I . Jason Enright (O), 2. Natasha Billington (R), 3.
