N, part two,
7:02
you will hear the assistant principal of a primary school talking to a group of parents who have offered to help with sports activities.
7:13
First, you have some time to Look at questions 11 to 14.
7:47
N Now listen carefully and answer questions. 11 to 14.
7:54
Good evening, parents and thank you for offering your help. I'm here to talk about the sports programs that the children are taking part in this term. Although we do do sport during class time, children often have extra activities before or after school or at weekends, and that's when we need you.
8:12
First up, we're looking for parents who would like to become team coaches or managers. We had some excellent people last year, but some of those parents now have other commitments. It's the year four netball team, the year five and six rugby teams and the year three hockey team that need new people now.
Coaching — I know some parents might not be completely familiar with, say, rugby or netball rules, but don't let that put you off. Obviously, knowledge of the game helps, but if you're keen, there are some coaching courses you can take before the training sessions for players begin, and these also get held throughout the whole season. What's really required is the right attitude. Are you the kind of person that can motivate kids and make the game seem exciting?
8:59
All the rugby training and matches are organized by North Shore Rugby Club. If you do volunteer to become a rugby coach, you'll need to go along to an important day that's coming up. That's on Saturday the 23rd.
9:11
It takes place on the rugby grounds, and it's when all the kids put their names down for a team, and the organizers are on hand to give parents a bit more information. Matches are on Saturday morning and training sessions on a Wednesday after school.
9:26
Moving on to netball matches and uniforms, matches are on Monday at 4pm and take place at the North Harbor netball grounds. And for uniforms, we've just ordered a new set from the sports store in town and parents must hire one from the school secretary for $15, which gets refunded at the end of the season.
9:50
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.
10:27
N now listen and answer questions 15 to 20.
10:34
OK, some of you are kindly helping with the cross-country running event. Children in years three to six will be running from school at the bottom of your map there. The route isn't marked on your map, I'm afraid, but I'm going to point out some different places that need parent supervision.
The drink station is one. If you're handing out water, head to the north car park, and the station will be set up on the other side of the road from it, right by the flagpost.
11:04
Two or three parents will be needed to help out at the major crossing point, just to make sure everybody's going the right way. So on the map, there's that little footpath going up past the school. Then it splits into three directions — the crossing point is at the end of the left-hand path heading west, just before you cross Summer Street.
11:27
Now we'll need a couple of parents at the halfway point to send the children in the right direction. So there are four buildings on the far left-hand side. The halfway point is just to the right of these buildings. Just cheer the kids on. And if anyone has given up running, that's fine.
11:47
OK, the teacher at our first aid post might need help sticking plasters on. The quickest way to get to first aid is to head up the footpath next to school. And when you get to the second turning on the right, head down there, and it's sort of opposite the satellite dish.
12:06
What else? The rest area is for children needing a break, and that's the place nearest the south car park near the road. And if any parent here is handy with a video camera, we'd really appreciate some help with filming the event.
12:23
This means heading up the footpath by the school, then keep going up with the flagpost on your left and the satellite dish on your right, and the filming spot is just there in front of the trees. Well, I think that covers everything. But if you have any questions, please—
12:44
That is the end of part two. You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part two.
