Juggling classes keep west Auckland primary students active in lockdown
Students at a west Auckland school are clowning around to remain active during lockdown.
New Lynn Primary has been offering online juggling classes to bring together students, families and teachers.
Principal Greg Roebuck said it has been a great way to keep everyone connected.
“We have been looking at ways to support our students and whānau,” he said.
“The focus for us is on connecting wellbeing and physical movement as a way that can positively impact during this stressful time.”
Teacher Neelesh Desai said it is a welcome change to regular lockdown zoom time.
“It was great to see so many of our students getting involved with their whānau and having the opportunity for teachers to take a break,” he said.
“This gave us an opportunity as teachers to have fun with our students, focusing not only on their wellbeing but also ours.”
The workshop was created with Circability, a community-focused circus programme, in collaboration with Sport Waitākere.
