The Halberg Manaakitanga Leadership Programme

Mya Kingi, Sylvie Taylor, India Flavell and Sophie Farrell took part in a 3 week Manaakitanga Leadership course alongside 4 students from other schools including Westlake Girls’, Northcote College and Glenfield College.  This course was run by the Halberg Foundation where we learnt many things about their organisation.  They taught us what it is like to have a visual or physical impairment and how to treat these people. We learnt many skills that we could use in our PE lessons like how to modify games so that people with an impairment can still be just as involved, making it fun for everyone. At the end of this 3 week course we helped to run the Manaakitanga sports day where we helped lead kids over several different activities including gymnastics, archery, wheelchair basketball, Crossfit and petanque.
