FANTAILS Programme

Ferrymead Bays is hosting a MILO Fantails programme in Term 1 2025.

This is a Girls Only Football Hub, for girls 4-12 years old.

It is designed to develop positive values and skills that can be used in everyday life.

Physical activity and football can be great teachers in helping young people to develop positive behaviours such as making new friends, respecting others, speaking, and listening, working well individually and within a team, having a positive attitude and overcoming challenges. All skills we want our young wahine to acquire.

The girls will learn about and discuss different values and life skills in every session and reflect on how they can be applied in different areas of life.

When: 5 x Thursdays 4-5 pm - 13th March, 20th March, 27th March, 3rd April, 10th April

Where: Ferrymead Park
