Sports - Week 4 Term 4 2026
Pride in Our Uniform
Representing St Ignatius at sports events means demonstrating our 4 C’s through how we present ourselves.
Wearing the correct school PE uniform, approved footwear, and official school outerwear shows pride and unity in our community. Non-school hoodies, slides, Crocs, and casual trackpants are not permitted at sports events.

Sport 2027 and Beyond Whānau Hui
This week, the Ignatian Rugby community gathered for a whānau meal to share food, connect, and discuss the vision for rugby at our school. We want to help other sporting codes create similar strong, connected communities.
We invite interested whānau to attend our Sport 2027 and Beyond Whānau Hui to discuss establishing committees for other sports. The Sports Department will present a framework and explain how we can support you in growing these code-specific communities.
Date: Thursday, 26 November
Time: 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm
Location: Manresa
