Tag Rugby Fun with Hayle U9’s Coach Peter Old’s

This week, our Year 4 students had an exciting opportunity to showcase their tag rugby skills under the expert guidance of Peter Olds, Hayle’s Under 9’s rugby coach.

As part of their PE lessons this half term, the children have been learning the fundamentals of tag rugby, including teamwork, agility, and strategy. Their hard work and enthusiasm were on full display during the session with Coach Peter Olds, who provided valuable tips, encouragement, and insights into the game.

The students relished the chance to learn from a professional coach and to put their newfound skills to the test. Highlights of the session included some thrilling tag matches and plenty of laughter as everyone worked together to refine their techniques.

A huge thank you to Peter Olds for taking the time to inspire our young athletes and for making the session both educational and fun. We’re incredibly proud of the determination and sportsmanship shown by all our Year 4 students, and we can’t wait to see them continue to develop their rugby skills.
