SPORTS SCIENCE<br />

As always our Sports<br />

Science courses were<br />

very popular with many<br />

highlights throughout the<br />

year.<br />

Level 1 Sports Science had a trip to<br />

the indoor climbing wall as part of<br />

their course to consider responsible<br />

behaviour during outdoor activities.<br />

They also organised a mini fun<br />

run for the year 9 students. Level 2<br />

Sports Science worked through a<br />

variety of achievement standards<br />

however the stand out part of the<br />

year was our 4 day camp at Kokako<br />

Lodge where we looked at risk<br />

assessment procedures and how<br />

best to manage them. Level 3 Sports<br />

Science considered how to devise<br />

strategies for fitness to be a lifelong<br />

commitment and ways to improve<br />

their own fitness.<br />

SPORTS LEADERSHIP<br />

The Level 2 Sports<br />

Leadership students<br />

organised the ‘Big Day Out’<br />

in February this year for<br />

the new Year 9 students.<br />

This was an excellent event with all<br />

Year 9 classes spending a fun day<br />

packed full of sports, challenges, and<br />

team building activities. The Sports<br />

Leaders organisation was superb<br />

and it was a great way for the Year<br />

9's to get to know each other.<br />

The Sports Leaders also organised<br />

an inter-form class competition<br />

during lunchtimes and intervals for<br />

our junior classes. This was a popular<br />

and competitive event with all junior<br />

classes putting forward teams to<br />

compete in turbo-touch. Well done<br />

to all our Sports Leaders.<br />
