Run Jump Throw
|
Run Jump Throw will be restarting in October 2025, and will be held every Wednesday from 5:30pm till 6:30pm with Have a Go Evenings on Friday Nights. This programme is offered to 6 - 10 year olds of all abilities, and uses modified equipment and games to help maximise participation and enjoyment. The programme uses a bottom-up approach to teach skills and adaptations needed for athletics movements – so participants can learn the necessary fundamental skills and basic movement patterns in an inclusive, positive and supportive environment, and continue to refine their skills through our athletics club following on after they leave the programme. Participants will learn, grow their confidence and be challenged at their own pace. * Venue: TGHS, Martins Field, Timaru * Cost: TBC * Time: 5:30pm - 6:30pm * Dates: October - December |
