This comes after the acknowledgement that for kids, enjoyment is closely tied to how well they perform, something heavily influenced by parents and coaches.
What are your thoughts? Do you think this new approach will benefit our youngsters?

CHESTER is a fit and healthy, 9 year old Wheaten Terrier/Labradoodle X Boy. Chester has a lovely temperament, is gentle and loves people. He just wants to please and be with you, lean against you, sit on you and just be cuddled. He is a perfect companion for you or a family.
Unfortunately his current family is moving and are unable take him with them. We’re heartbroken about leaving him and desperately want to find a loving parent or family to adopt him.
Chester will form a very close bond with his new owner or family. Chester is very obedient and follows all basic commands and is easy to teach. He spends his days in our garden when not out for walks. He enjoys regular walks and behaves well on the lead, stopping at a café for coffee and travelling in the car are all activities he enjoys.
Chester spends his evenings inside with the family and sleeps in his own bed in the house.He is great with other dogs of all sizes and loves to play. He is not good with cats.
Chester is de-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped and registered and is up to date with flea/worm treatments.

Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. In the heart of the lodge is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large woodburner with wetback heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring year-round warmth.
Organically managed, the four-hectare property provides the ability to live from the land with honey, fruit trees, berry patches, vegetable gardens, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle and horses. The small Chardonnay vineyard with a careful selection of clones produces a succulent house wine thoroughly enjoyed by guests from all around the world.
A range of useful ancillary sheds and buildings offers space for projects, hobbies, storage and accommodation for staff. Other facilities on the property include a petanque court, croquet lawn and small gymnasium overlooking the swimming pool.
This extraordinarily diverse and unique lifestyle is ideally located on State Highway One, less than a five-minute drive from central Blenheim and 15 minutes from numerous winery cellar doors, restaurants and the airport.

He says that "te reo Māori and Māori culture is part of what makes Aotearoa such a special place and we can't get enough of it".
