Swimming
The whole school goes by bus to Hawksbury pool for swimming lessons. School swimming is a weekly activity during terms 1, 2 and 4.
School Camp
Every second year the entire school enjoys a three day adventure together. Every other year the seniors head to Wanaka for ski camp.
Bike Skills
Our bikes skills program has our tamariki learning and practicing skills fortnightly through games and experiences. The junior school gets to celebrate these skills biannually with a week of wheels. The week of wheels has seen tamariki ride karitāne streets with confidence and tackle a portion of the te ara moana cycle track as well as navigating down the big easy on signal hill.
Clubs
In term 3 of each year we take a break from swimming and have clubs on a Thursday afternoon instead. Wonderful parents, grandparents and champions of our school often take a club.
Community
Karitāne School has strong relationships within the wider community, particularly Kati Huirapa Runaka.
