On Thursdays we have Coach Mattie come from Gametime come. https://itsgametime.co.nz/ Families that are interested sign up for this and on Thursdays Coach Mattie comes to run this sports programme for the children that teaches them ball skills and develops their physical fitness. Groups of up to 15 children play games, and learn pre-requisite skills for group sports they might play when they're older such as Netball, Soccer, Rugby, Softball and Basketball. Every Thursday the playground rings out in excitement "It's Coach Mattie day!" as the children wait in delight for their session to start. Coach Mattie comes in all weathers - he can provide this amazing programme with children inside or out. There is a player of the day trophy that the children can win and twice a year Coach Mattie will provide a written report to parents detailing the skills their child has learned and what they need to work on. Children not only learn ball skills, but they learn sportsmanship, listening and following instructions, repect for their coach and team mates, and how to have fun whilst keeping fit. We are very lucky to have Coach Mattie with us as he works with our children developing their fitness, confidence, and ball skills.
