At Tawa Intermediate School we look to introduce students to a number of different events from traditional athletics. They get taught the basics and have a chance to try out Discus, Shot Put, Vortex, High Jump, and Long Jump. We also look at some of the techniques of sprinting. Students who participate in Club Athletics have a chance to share their expertise with fellow students, and maybe learn something about their own technique in the process. All this builds to the Tawa Intermediate Athletics day, which in 2010 is scheduled for Tuesday 2 March with a postponement day of Friday 5 March.
