Sport Otago 🤝 Active Southland
We loved connecting with Active Southland's Healthy Active Learning team this week, sharing ideas and learning from each other to support more tamariki and rakatahi across the lower South Island to enjoy being active! 🤸♀️
Two days of learning, sharing and making connections 🌊
Our Healthy Active Learning team had a great couple of days catching up with the Sport Otago Healthy Active Learning team this week.
It was a chance to spend some time together, swap ideas, hear what each team has been working on and learn from each other.
We wrapped things up at Tai Tōrua – The Changing Tides, a one-day conference hosted by PENZ, Sport Otago and the University of Otago – School of Education.
There was plenty to get us thinking, from literacy in the outdoors and Maramataka, to supporting neurodiverse tamariki in movement-based classes and getting our heads around the new Health and PE Curriculum.
Lots of good conversations, plenty of ideas to take home, and even better, stronger connections with others who share our passion for helping tamariki have positive experiences through movement.
Ngā mihi nui to everyone who shared their knowledge, experiences and ideas with us 💙
