Already adept at balancing being a parent and studying, School for Young Parents students have shown they can cut it on the netball court too.
The Rotorua School for Young Parents hosted an annual netball tournament for Teen Parent units from throughout New Zealand at the Westbrook netball courts yesterday.Teacher-in-charge Wendy Mack said 16 of New Zealand's 24 Teen Parent units attended the tournament.
She said there were a lot of benefits.
"There's the team work leading up to today and for our girls especially there's a sense of pride that everyone's here in Rotorua.
"They've got tutus on, they're having fun, it's a really enjoyable day out of their lives. They also love netball," Mack said.
