Our Sports Day
Today we hosted our sports day at Allenby Park. Throughout the day we engaged in activities such as Bean Bag toss, Egg and Spoon Race, T-Ball, Sack racing and tug-a-war. Through these activities, we developed our self-confidence as well as sportsmanship and gross motor skills, locomotor skills, strength, co-ordination, balance and perseverance.
It was lovely to see our tamariki all getting involved and feeling happy and encouraged to try something new. As each friend took their turn at the games, we began praising and encouraging their efforts and high-fiving for their success as they reached their target, hit the ball or returned to the starting line after their big races.
We then enjoyed some down time at the park- trying out the swings, monkey bars, playground and big slide. To conclude our event we sat down together for a shared kai to recoup our energy for our trip back to the centre.
Tino Pai tamariki and congratulations on your Sports Day success!!
