Physical Activity Leaders at Tauriko School 2023
Congratulations to the 18 Physical Activity Leaders (formerly Dynamos) who have been selected to lead fun, interactive cooperative games during our lunch times this year.
Each lunchtime a group of P.A.L's are rostered onto to take a game or play activity for students to participate in.
Not only are the leaders rostered on at lunch time, we also meet together every Monday to discuss the positives, problem solve and plan for the upcoming week. We are looking forward to an exciting year of great leadership and student participation.
Please encourage your child to listen out for the P.A.L's announcements and to get involved in the lunch time activities. These are run ona Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
P.A.L Mentors: Brooke Nelson, Ben Merrit, James Carmichael, Jessie Taylor, Cole Beach & Misha Underwood.
P.A.L Leaders: Cooper Nelson, James McCullum, Mehkro Russell, Ishandeep Singh, Mae Beach, Sophie Hurley, Liam Fitch, Mateo Fakapulia, Leigha McCullum, Hannah Paprzik, Isaia Latimer & Charlie Cubley.
Isaia : I applied to be a P.A.L because I want to be good leader. I am looking forward to learning some new games to teach.
Cole: This is my 3rd year of being a leader - now I am a mentor which means I get to supervise the games and our team of leaders. I am looking forward to teaching new people the games.
Leigha : I wanted to be a P.A.L because I like playing games and thought it would be a good chance to learn new games and lead others.
Ben: I have been a leader since I was year 6 - I am now a mentor which is fun to be a leader of the other leaders. It is really fun to work with others and plan and lead games with junior kids.
