Fundraiser to compete in Manu Korero

This year two St Thomas' students, James Kerr and Te Aotahi Rice-Edwards, won regional Manu Korero speech competitions and St Thomas' once again won the top school award (for the Canterbury region).

This win provides the students and the school the opportunity to compete at the National Manu Korero speech competitions in Napier on the 23rd-25th of September.

However with great opportunities come great expenses.

Accordingly we are seek sponsors/funders anyone with a generous heart and some spare change to support us in getting 20 plus boys and teachers to Napier in four weeks time.

All up it comes to $14,500.00
