Track and Field has always been a popular CCA in Nan Chiau Primary School. There are always about 70 to 80 students who signed up for the CCA. At every training session, attendance rate is always above 95%. During the training sessions, students are put through a 5-minute endurance run followed by stretching exercises and strengthening exercises. The students are divided into groups to do drills to develop their athletics skills. They are also trained to do high jump, long jump, shot put and baton passing. Those with potential will be selected to represent the school in the National Primary Schools Track and Field Championship to give them the exposure. Through the CCA, students will be able to develop social skills, team building, perseverance, hard work and character building. With the knowledge acquired, the athletics skills and values learnt. Students will develop the passion for the sport, take it up as a healthy hobby in future and hopefully develop as sportsmen of integrity.
