Rolleston pupil bowls<br />
the opposition over<br />
Rolleston School pupil Millie (middle) won the Canterbury Boccia<br />
Championship tournament last week. Three pupils from the school took<br />
part in the tournament at the Bishopdale YMCA. The other pupils are<br />
Lochlan (left), who was fifth, and Emma (right), fourth. Boccia is a game<br />
adapted from bowls and petanque. <br />
Planting for a greener future<br />
West Melton School pupils, including Sarah and Millie (above), got<br />
out their shovels to plant native trees at Kowhai Sanctuary. The event<br />
was held as part of the Kids Discovery Plantout programme. They<br />
planted Totara, Tī Kōuka and Kanuka trees. They also engaged in insect<br />
monitoring and were challenged to create something out of the natural<br />
resources that resembled the Māori legend Rūaumoko. <br />
