The Commonwealth Games 2022

Written by: Kirsty

Saint Kentigern is proud of the achievements of its former students and often they are seen representing their country in many different ways in sporting and cultural arenas and through The Arts. The recent Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England saw Old Collegians representing New Zealand in various sports, who knows perhaps we may have a future representative in our midst.

The Commonwealth Games provided an opportunity for our children across Preschool to learn more about these specials games, their collaborative and individual learning opening up discussions about the Commonwealth and in particular what countries are in or are not in the Commonwealth. The children were engaged in making medals from paper and clay and also creating their own flags. What was so lovely to see was the medals being worn throughout the day.
