Register by March 1st for the spring season!

www.kindergartensoccer.org

  • Pre-K League: for Newton children who are entering kindergarten in the fall of 2023
  • Kindergarten League: for current Newton kindergartners

Since 1993, Kindergarten Soccer has been introducing children to soccer in a fun and non-competitive environment where girls and boys develop friendships, learn teamwork and gain confidence.

We play on Saturday mornings at the Oak Hill Middle School fields, starting April 29th and will run for six (6) weeks.

Join us and meet other families in your neighborhood!

Game times are based on school assignment and will be communicated after teams are created (in early April).

Kindergarten Soccer is a program created and hosted by the Zervas Elementary School PTO since 1993.

Pickleball for Kids Starting in February

Newton Community Education is pleased to announce two new classes starting in February: Pickleball for Kids! While pickleball has elements of tennis, racquetball, and ping pong, it is a unique game with its own set of quirky rules. Students will learn how to keep score, the mystery behind the “kitchen” player positioning, and the many different types of shots. Instruction will include both drills and game playing. Students should wear sneakers and comfortable clothing. Bring your own paddle!
Classes will be held at Mason Rice Elementary School on Thursday evenings. We expect these classes to enroll quickly, so sign up and don’t miss out. For more information and to register, visi: https://www2.newtoncommunityed.org/pickleball-for-kids/
