An Exciting Day of Hockey with Southgate Hockey Club at Vita et Pax Prep School
We are delighted to share the exciting experience our Year 3, 4, 5, and 6 students at Vita et Pax Prep, an independent school in Enfield, North London, had today.
Southgate Hockey Club generously provided a special coaching session, which gave our pupils an afternoon full of fun, fitness, and skill development. It was an unforgettable experience that truly brought out the best in our students, combining physical activity, teamwork, and the joy of learning a new sport.
During the session, our students focused on developing key hockey skills such as dribbling, passing, and shooting. The Southgate Hockey Club coach, who brought a wealth of experience and knowledge, was incredibly supportive and engaging. He ensured that every child was actively involved, giving them the confidence to practice their techniques and explore new abilities. It was inspiring to watch our pupils work together, supporting each other and refining their skills with each passing minute. The energy on the field was palpable, and the students’ enthusiasm was infectious.
In addition to honing their technical skills, the session highlighted the importance of teamwork, coordination, and sportsmanship. The children learned how to communicate effectively on the field, support one another during drills, and celebrate each other’s successes, all while having a great time. This emphasis on collaboration is something we strongly encourage at Vita et Pax, where we place great importance on fostering physical activity and nurturing positive relationships among students.
The session was a perfect example of the values we hold dear within our North London school community. The children’s eagerness to learn, improve, and work together showcased the importance of promoting an active, healthy lifestyle while building important character traits such as resilience and teamwork. Many of our pupils left the field feeling inspired, not only by the skills they had learned but also by the joy of participating in a team sport. Some even expressed a renewed interest in pursuing hockey and other sports with greater enthusiasm.
We extend our sincere thanks to Southgate Hockey Club for their continued support in making this day so memorable for our students. Their commitment to nurturing young athletes and providing high-quality coaching is invaluable, and we look forward to more opportunities for our students to work with them in the future.
