Kiwisport Fun!

This term, the year 8 students are having some fun on Tuesday afternoons learning how to play Foosball. We have two amazing coaches who teach us new games and techniques each week. This week, we learnt that foosball is often played indoors with a smaller ball than a normal soccer ball. Check out some of the fun we have had during our first week.

 

Term 4 KiwiSport: Volleyball!

Today we had our first Volleyball session with Coach Renee.  It was awesome to see our net hanging on our new hardcourt this morning ready for our session.  We had a blast today learning from Coach Renee and we are so excited to continue to learn from her for the rest of the term as we further develop our volleyball skills.

KiwiSport Tennis Week 1

This week, the students of Room 11 started learning how to play tennis!  We had so much fun learning how to use our rackets from our new coach, and we are so excited for the rest of the term with him.

Our First Field Hockey Session

Today, the lucky students in Room 11 Literacy were able to begin their day with a Kiwi Sport field hockey session! We were so excited because this would be the first time playing field hockey for most of the students.  We learnt many important things like holding out stick with our right hand on the colour, keeping our stick on the ground, and keeping our eyes forward, bum down and knees bent. We also learnt about dribbling (taking our ball for a walk), and heel-toe dribbling.  Our coach was so proud of us!  She said that we did a superb job!

Basketball Stars

This term the students at Pt. England are blessed to have amazing Basketball coaches come in and deliver special sessions each week. In Team 5, students are attending their sessions with their Maths classes. Mrs. Moala's Maths class had their first session today, and had a great time learning and laughing together!  We learnt how to "Go Fishing," ankle dribbling, and ball control.
