We pulled back a bit on activities this term to give the taxi driver a break and regroup. It didn't stop the boys achieving well in everything they tried out for.
Russell was awarded the much coveted green belt in karate at the end of the term. He has worked hard and has fantastic style and skill in this martial art. Green belt is considered to be the first rung in the senior ladder and the climb to new colours becomes steeper, tougher and longer from here.
Term 1 is the swimming term at school and Russell was awarded runner up in the Year 5 boys for Mt Pleasant Primary. He went on to swim in the inter school meet where our school won. He won his backstroke race and placed in all other strokes. He went down to look at the local water polo club and is considering giving that a go next summer.
Adam completed another cricket season of "In 2 Cricket" skills clinic. He loved being part of the action and became quite proficient with a bat. He can now go on to play for a team at the end of this year.
Hugo had the term off from extra sport as the jump to preprimary and full time school was quite a big adjustment for him. He was exhausted at the end of a school day and often fell asleep in the afternoon.
All three boys got back into rugby at the end of this term and are preparing in earnest for the matches that start at the end of this month.
But for now, we are enjoying Easter break for three weeks before the next load of activities roll out!
