2 December - 8 December

We are learning to be summer active.

Students will plan and experience what it is like to be "summer active" in their immediate environment. This is Auckland. Students will investigate the difference between doing summer sports and doing summer activities. Students often loose most of their fitness and gain weight during the summer break as they have a misconception of summer sports/activities especially if they spend all of summer at home in Auckland.

Summer Activities:

Class Discussion and student research

Student do research and plan a 3 week itinerary for an exchange student visiting Auckland from overseas. Students will plan 1 x tourist activity, 1 x physical activity and 1 x sports activity per week for three weeks. Students will plan based on personal experience, research and what is available within 2 hours drive from Auckland.

Students plan and quote 3 activities per week for three weeks and record ideas on their google slide. 

Student create a poster to advertise their itinerary with their international guest and present it to the class. 

Activities:

Relay games to promote fun with athletics

With a focus on all year sports, students play bench ball.

Concentrate on strategy and team collaboration. It is important to include all your team mates.
