But not only the girls had fun, the boys enjoyed themselves as they played mini-rugby.

There were 18 Tau rugby players and 24 older children who played in the first games of the season. The Tau rugby players will be participating in their festivals at Trinityhouse Randpark Ridge Pre-primary School between 29 and 31 May, and on 5 June. The children will be playing under floodlights, one of the highlight of the season.

“Non-competitive sport in a early-learning environment is an integral developmental skill for children. They learn more about themselves, and about cooperation and collaboration. We, as Maragon Avianto, believe it integrates our vital global competencies as part of our unique curriculum,” Monica de Beer, principal of Maragon said.
