Feedback from Parents

“Just wanted to take the opportunity to say thanks…it is not said enough and you guys do an amazing job at our school. The kids are completely involved in the activities and it is awesome to see their skills improve and their eagerness to be part of the Kelly Sports Team. My wee boy loves it and I’m sure his week wouldn’t be the same without a good does of your Kelly Sports games. Thanks, the work you do is really appreciated by us busy parents and I know that my 4 year old can’t wait to get to school to do Kelly Sports too!”

“My son started Kelly Sports with you this afternoon. He is only 5 years old but very keen. He had a fabulous time, my normally quite reserved boy was interacting with kids, chatting and so excited to be part of it. I want to pass on my thanks to your team who looked after him and gave him the confidence to get out there and have fun. He even went to bed with the medal!”

In-School Programmes

We also run Kelly Sport in-school programmes, click on the links below to check out what we have to offer:

The in-school currciclum programmes we run have been hugely successful.  The Fundamental Skills programme teaches children the basics of kicking, throwing, catching, striking, running and jumping in a fun and structured environment.  Teacher and student self-assessment sheets are available for this programme.  These can be included in children’s work or report folders.

The Keep Fit programme is a fantastic fun.  The whole school aims to improve their fitness over a term through fitness testing and a variety of relay type activities.  Children are assessed at the beginning, the middle and the end of the term by Kelly Sports Coaches.  We then provide the teachers with fun relay activities to help improve their fitness throughout the term.  This is great programme for children aged from Year 3 or 4 through to Year 8 with the whole school encouraging each other to improve their results by the end of the term.

If you’re thinking about holding an end of term or end of year sports day at your school, then contact us as we have the experience, the coaches and the equipment to make this an awesome day for both students and teachers.  These sports days can be for your whole school, class or syndicate.  We can provide all the coaches, or organise the day so your teachers are involved as well.  Let us know if you’d like further info or click on the Mini-Olympics or Sports Days brochures above.

For further information on any of the above please contact Jo Murray at any time on jo@kellysports.co.nz or 04 232 9409.

Feedback

“We have had a very successful day today.  Your staff were great – encouraging and enthusiastic.  The activities were relevant and everyone had fun (overwhelming favourite activity was Run the Gauntlet) and now staff and students are somewhat subdued and tired!”
