Hockey session with Sport Waikato
This week Sam from Sport Waikato visited our school for follow up Hockey lessons. He started the junior children with simple drills learning focusing on hand/eye co-ordination. They had a lot of fun playing the Egg Nest game, filling up their own nests with the eggs, then stealing them from the other nests.
The senior class began their session going over some drills they had learnt previous years before doing some drills focussing on hand/eye co-ordination.
