Thank you to the awesome Room 6 students who spent the day with us.

You are amazing leaders. The Room 4 students learnt some great discus and shot put skills.

You were definitely using the manaakitanga, awhi, ako, rangatiratanga hoe.

Cross Country Training

On Tuesday 16th June we started our Cross Country training.

We will be training every Tuesday and Thursday after morning tea.

We marked our hand with tally marks to count how many times we ran around the field.

We have to run 4 times around the field.

Some students ran 5 times, some ran 6 times, Hikurangi and Rio ran 7 times around the field.

We have made a table to record the number of times we run around each practice time.

We will post these tables on our blogs at the end of the term.

Daily PE lessons.

It is very important to get out in the fresh air every day.

We are learning

to improve our eye - hand co-ordination, ball skills, movement and improving fitness.
