PacificSport opportunities for physical literacy

There are programs, offered locally, to promote physical skills needed for healthy living and for later participation in sport.  My daughter has participated in several PacificSport programs and has enjoyed them a lot.  There is no pressure to compete and a focus is put on participation.  Jennifer Gibson coordinates these programs out of the Pomeroy Sport Centre.
