Junior Pelicans FUNdamentals Program Soars at Kehoe-France Southshore!
It was an exciting day at Kehoe-France Southshore last week as our Kindergarten and 1st grade champions met Pierre the Pelican! Thanks to our new partnership with the New Orleans Saints and Pelicans organization, our young learners participated in the remarkable Junior Pelicans FUNdamentals program.
Merging Basketball with Core Values
Five Fundamentals in Focus
Under the guidance of the Pelicans’ skilled staff, our students embraced basketball’s core: dribbling, passing, shooting, defense, and teamwork. Each lesson seamlessly transitioned from court dynamics to valuable life skills, emphasizing attributes like collaboration and determination.
More than a Game
Beyond the thrill of meeting Pierre and mastering basketball basics, each student left with a personalized certificate from Pierre the Pelican. This memento symbolizes a day filled with joy, learning, and unforgettable experiences.
Here at Kehoe-France Southshore, we’re steadfast in offering transformative experiences for our students. This collaboration with the Saints organization is just the beginning of many more engaging events to come. Stay tuned!
