Let's Get Physical - Year 7/8 Sports
After numerous weeks of Athletics, pre and post the break, our Year 7 and 8 Athletes competed with enthusiasm and fairness. Swimming has been and gone. It's now time to switch our attention to some ball sports. These will include, Cricket, Touch, Volleyball and Miss Green's specialty, Coney Island.
Over the next few weeks, our tamariki will be involved in training sessions, learn skills and touch on game simulation in the above mentioned sports. They really dig sport, so, we have arranged a 'Sports Tournament' during weeks 5-7. With a bit of luck, they will hit many sixes in their endeavours to catch the ball in cone-y island. See attached pictures of our super stars in action, or perhaps some staged photos!
Wheriko
Our learners have experienced all zones in Wheriko and have enjoyed many aspects that it has to offer. Some of us like the quietness, the acoustics, the brightness and openness and others simply have enjoyed mixing with their friends whilst learning. We have purposefully worked in all areas to see which will suit our students and where they work best. In the coming days we will settle on a zone for the rest of the year, with subtle changes if needed.
