CCYD Tackle Project – Session 1
The new Tackle cohort has ‘kicked off’ in CCYD today. 14 year 10 pupils have been invited to join the Ospreys Tackle Group which will run over the next 12/18 months until complete. Due to following Covid 19 restrictions we have started the courses without the Ospreys Community Officers, but they have kindly provided our tasks for the coming weeks.
Our first lesson involved getting to know each other, an introduction to the course and the creative task of inventing a kicking tee designed and made by the individual pupils out of recycled materials ( see photo below).
There was good discussion around design and creativity and ideas were quick to develop. All models were tested with a rugby ball for their strength and practicality. Learner feedback was that they enjoyed the task and we look forward to the next session, which will run every Tuesday.
Well done to all who took part, we are looking forward to seeing you next week, for the next session!
