Starting the day inspired! ⚡️

Thanks to the 30 teachers and principals who joined us at No.7 Balmac in Dunedin this morning for our School Leaders’ Breakfast.

So good to hear from Sport New Zealand’s Gregor Fountain, who shared insights from the Active Bodies, Active Minds report and explored how schools can help tamariki move, play and thrive! 🤸‍♂️

Embracing the geothermal sights (and smells!) of Rotorua at the National Māori Sport & Recreation Conference last week.

Grateful to connect, share whakaaro and bring all the learnings back to Ōtākou to strengthen outcomes for our whānau and hapori through sport and active recreation and ensure our mokopuna inherit systems that celebrate their identity, activate their culture and support their success.

Making new PALs! 🤝

In Term 1, our Healthy Active Learning team – with Halberg Foundation and ParaFed Otago – were busy training up new Physical Activity Leaders across the region.

Now it’s over to our tamariki as they step into their roles as PALs – and we love seeing them leading the kaupapa in their own schools and creating fun, inclusive games where everyone belongs. 🧡
