Athletics Day Practice

Emma Hill —

Tīrama and Pīata have been practicing for Athletics day being held on Tuesday 31 October.

The sun is out, the lines have been painted on the field and our ākonga are rearing to go for Athletics day being held at Te Puna Wai on Tuesday 31 October. Tīrama and Pīata have been practicing long jump and sprints. The children have been learning correct techniques, jumping with one foot and landing on two feet for long jump. In sprints, we have been learning how to "get set, ready, go" and to run in a straight line towards the finish line. 

Our sprint heats are being held on Wednesday 25 October at Merrin School, finals will be at Te Puna Wai.

We are all looking forward to an action packed day at Te Puna Wai. Please feel free to come along and watch your ākonga on the day.
