<strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary North Coast <strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-<br />
Primary North Coast<br />
successfully hosted<br />
their first Bike Rally.<br />
Eager children and<br />
parents arrived at<br />
the school ground in<br />
anticipation of a fun-filled morning, equipped with their<br />
bikes and riding gear. The parents clapped, cheered and<br />
were encouraged to assist the little ones as the children<br />
manoeuvred over ramps and navigated their bikes<br />
through obstacles to complete the required number of<br />
laps around the course. There were smiles all around as<br />
every child received a medal for their effort, perseverance<br />
and participation.<br />

Pretoria offers horse<br />
riding as an extramural<br />
activity. There<br />
are numerous benefits<br />
to riding – it helps with<br />
body awareness, coordination,<br />
core strength<br />
and flexibility. This<br />
activity is very popular<br />
amongst the pupils.<br />
With Grass Roots lessons,<br />
the <strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary<br />
Sandton pupils learn many<br />
different skills and develop<br />
them through loads of<br />
practise. One of the biggest<br />
qualities to becoming a<br />
sportsman/woman is to<br />
believe in yourself and<br />
practise, practise and practise<br />
some more! With the coaches<br />
putting together fun and<br />
interesting games to help us<br />
become stronger, we love the<br />
challenges they set us and we<br />
look forward to growing into<br />
some great sports stars to do<br />
<strong>Crawford</strong> Sandton proud!<br />
There’s nothing better than<br />
participating in a sport that you<br />
love. But when you receive a<br />
medal for your efforts, it really is<br />
the cherry on the top! <strong>Crawford</strong><br />
Pre-Primary Sandton pupil Zande is super proud to have<br />
achieved a medal in gymnastics and couldn’t wait to bring<br />
it to school and tell her friends about how cool it is to be<br />
a gymnast. She even showed us some of the moves she’s<br />
been practising. The school is extremely proud of you!<br />
<strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary North Coast Glide and Ride<br />
is a new extramural<br />
sport<br />
that has been<br />
introduced<br />
at <strong>Crawford</strong><br />
Pre-Primary<br />
North Coast.<br />
The pupils are<br />
taught the necessary skills required to ride a bicycle<br />
confidently and are also challenged by learning how<br />
to navigate across ramps and obstacles. The pupils<br />
are always beaming with pride after each successful<br />
attempt.<br />
<strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary Pretoria<br />
Soccer is a much-loved activity at our school. Saturday<br />
morning Soccer is an event that our pupils and<br />
parents look forward to. The <strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary<br />
children are doing very well learning the basic skills<br />
and have scored many goals already. Well done!<br />
<strong>Crawford</strong> Village<br />
The <strong>Crawford</strong><br />
Village Grade<br />
000 pupils were<br />
so enthralled<br />
in their recent<br />
Sports Day<br />
that they got<br />
to learn a little more about other sports during<br />
the following week of school. They were given a<br />
“touch and feel” experience of different sporting<br />
equipment. They were surprised to learn that playing<br />
sport can become a “dream job” one day!<br />
<strong>Crawford</strong> Village<br />
In the <strong>Crawford</strong><br />
Village Aftercare,<br />
we engage in<br />
many gross motor<br />
activities. This<br />
week our pupils<br />
participated in a<br />
relay race, where<br />
they collaborated<br />
as a team to build their Lego tower in the correct<br />
sequence. The activity allowed the pupils to practise<br />
skills such as teamwork, gross motor skills, colour<br />
recognition and sequencing.<br />
