Thank you
 

Jan Gallop, Sports Coordinator —

A big thank you to our many Sports Coaches, Managers (and everybody else!) who have supported our rangatahi in their summer sports teams over the last few months.

We would really like to thank all the sports coaches, managers and parent helpers for the dedication and hard work you have put into our college sports teams and players' development over the summer season.

We value the importance that sport and physical activity plays in our the lives of our rangatahi and without your commitment this would not be possible.

Coaches and managers have an immeasurable impact on the lives and development of the people they work with. Not only have you taught our young women the physical skills of the sport but also lifelong skills such as team work, commitment, problem solving, self-management, perseverance and resilience.
