Auroa Primary School NZAIMS Results 2014

Auroa Primary Schools NZAIMS Teams returned to Auroa on Friday.    In the Basketball Auroa's Girls finished 13th claiming wins against Diocesan School from Auckland, Dunedin North Intermediate, Mount Manganui Intermediate and Mokoia Intermediate.

The team also had close games against Otumoetai Intermediate, Northcross Intermediate and Highlands Intermediate.  We also had the privilege of playing against the tournament runners up - Kura O Te Koutu.  

We were really pleased how the entire team went during the week, our first time competing in Basketball and it was fantastic to be part of a competition with twenty four teams from all around New Zealand.

The Auroa Primary School Golf team also returned from competition, playing on four courses over four days of competition - Auroa were able to claim Bronze in the team competition and Brylee - who also featured in our Basketball team, was able to claim Bronze in the stableford competition.
