After two days of volleyball, Avarua Primary School students had the biggest smiles.
That’s because the school took out all three categories in the girls competition and the A and C grades in the boys competition.
The school’s biggest rival was once again Avatea school who hosted this year’s inter-primary school volleyball competition.
Avatea ‘ just managed to take out the B grade in the boy’s competition and second place in the girls A grade competition.
