<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 />

<strong>Crawford</strong> Pre-Primary<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 />
