TERM TWO SPORTS ARE NOW LIVE ON KINDO!
Coaching at West End School
If you are an enthusiastic sportsman or woman wanting to coach a winter sports team we want you! We are after sports coaches who will become the main point of contact for teams, run a team practice once a week and attend games. On offer for doing such a role your child's sports fees for the season will be fully funded.
Girls in Futsal
Next Thursday we will be sending two girls teams to the Manawatu Girls in Futsal Tournament. This is an exciting opportunity for girls to break down the barriers of females in sport. Information for this will be out on the app early next week.
Hurricanes in School: On Thursday we were joined by a number of Hurricanes players at school. The 20 students who attended the session with the players were thrilled to learn new skills and drills. We wish the boys luck this coming weekend as they play at the Arena.
From Marwa Imran - Student Council President
In Student Council during the last couple of weeks we have learnt to write an email to teachers. We have asked them for a meeting with their class to ask what ideas they have to make our school a better place. We met with Tipuranga classes this week and we are using their ideas and the ideas of every other class we have talked to and come up with projects to improve our school. We will be writing proposals to Mr West who will decide if these ideas will work. I enjoy being in Student Council because I love going into other classes and helping them. I am proud to be Student Council President because I am a great leader and am looking forward to working with students, teachers and Mr West.
