One young Tane asked “ When do we give them back, Miss?” To our friends in the far, Far North at Te Kao, where they seemed to be bemused about a delivery of balls just for them, we say, ‘they are yours to keep, go and have fun, play and enjoy!”
In Hokianga, the Dragons football team got some fire going. In Purerua Peninsula at Bay of Islands Academy, Ti Tii, they all jumped into super coordinated activity. Tamariki at Waima, Broadwood and Opua were also delighted to have balls so everyone could get out and play. It’s such a treat to see their faces and know they’ll be laughing, getting fit and having fun.
Thank you to every one of you who has helped by donating balls, bikes and money- you are making a difference-in happy, healthy ways.
Huge thanks to our friends at Tania Dalton Foundation and Rebel Sports Play it Forward campaign for helping us get kids active.
A reminder: Christmas is coming (hahaha-you didn’t expect that yet!) and we love active sporty stuff, so grab a ball and anything active-y if you spot them in a sale!
