What's happening in P.E?

At Mackellar Primary School students attend P.E. with a willingness to participate and learn new skills. They are confident, motivated and work in teams with drive and focus to succeed. 

This term, it has been fantastic to get students back into the gym and see them being physically active and see their skills progress.  

The grade prep – 2 cohort are learning new Fundamental motor skills and revising ones previously learnt. The students have enjoyed applying these skills to athletic events such as long jump, high jump and running in preparation for our whole school Athletics Carnival in Term 2. 

The grade 3-6 cohort have been focusing on using Fundamental motor skills in the correct sequence to complete a movement. The students have been given voice and agency into their learning by setting their own goals for The Athletics Carnival coming up in Term 2. Students are using their knowledge and creating videos to help younger students with Fundamental motor skills and prepare them for The Athletics Carnival.
