...this is one of the best Foundation level sports education courses in New Zealand...." Michael Jones
The Village Sports Academy, initiated by Michael Jones and fellow trustees of the Village Community Services Trust, is part of a wider education initiative with Te Wananga o Aotearoa, N.Z’s second largest Tertiary Institute and supported by the Tindall Foundation. The Village Sports Academy provides foundation-level education and training (Level 2-4) within the Auckland region. Based in West and Central Auckland, the Academy aims to transition students with low or nil qualifications into employment or further vocational or tertiary training. The programme combines practical sports skills and training with an academic component (certificate level) with a specific focus on life skills, leadership and aspiration building. The objective of the academy is ultimately to maximise the academic, sporting and life potential of every student on the programme.
