New ways to play keeping Favona School students active

Children at Favona School in Mangere have new ways to be active, develop skills and have fun through play thanks to a new Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa project funded through CLM Community Sport.

The new play equipment is not sport specific and allows students to let their imaginations lead them in how they can use it. Included are two Magic Play Boxes, a Sport Waitakere initiative to encourage unstructured and child-driven play, which are filled with upcycled loose materials such as rope, wood, tubing and containers.
