Grootbos Foundation Helps Gansbaai Children Stay Active and Healthy
This week’s update from Grootbos Foundation starts at the very beginning (like A B C) with sports, games and physical activities with pre-schoolers at an Early Childhood Centre in the Blompark community of Gansbaai. Cool, dynamic Grootbos coaches teach these children how to grow and stay healthy by being active (and eating healthily). Each week, the coaches deliver fun games and physical activities at 3 different Pre-primary schools (ECDs) and 5 different Primary Schools where children often miss out on physical education and movement during their school day. Grootbos coaches support teachers by delivering these lessons and make sure that children get maximum benefit from movement as they grow.
The children at Takalani ECD received their own toothbrushes and toothpaste after their games session with the coaches this week...
...and so did the children at Masakhane ECD.
This week, this group of tiny people practiced their balancing, racing around at top speed, and how to brush their teeth.
