Two times per week our whole school participates in Jump Jam exercises for fitness. Photos can be viewed on our ‘Day in the Life’ page.

Once a week we play sports against other classes in our syndicate, which is well organised and a lot of fun. Positive sportsmanship is the most important aspect of our sporting activities which include: cricket, swimming, tapuwae, touch rugby, softball, soccer, hockey, netball, relays, gymnastics, athletics, cross country training.

Throughout the year we have teams representing New Lynn School in: Saturday netball, cross country, athletics, gymnastics, inter-school rugby, fun-run fundraiser, inter-school field days (netball, soccer, rugby, hockey).


We have two netball teams playing in the Waitakere netball Saturday competition. A big thank-you to all the parents who get their children to the games each week.

Fun Run
Our school participated in the West Auckland Schools Fun Run on Saturday 24^thJuly 2010. We all ran 3km and had alot of fun.

Push Play

Our whole school took part in our ‘Push Play Day’ organised by our Sports co-ordinator, Mrs Fruean.

 We participated in: sprint races, softball throwing, high jump, musical chairs, rob-the-nest, pass-the-water and bean–bag throwing activities. We all got given a refreshing ice-block at the end.

The sunshine helped to make our ‘Push Play Day’ such alot of fun...
