Physical Education News
Dear students, parents, and families,
Over the past two weeks we have been completing our end of year Fundamental Movement Skills testing and it has been amazing to see the growth across the board! A healthy reminder, now that we are in Term 4, hats must be worn at lunch times and also during Physical Education!
State Athletics:
Congratulations to Marita (5D) and Sierra (4I) who represented Tarneit Rise Primary School at the state athletics competition! Marita took part in the 100m sprint, whilst Sierra competed in Shot put! This is the first time our students and school has ever made it this far and it is a phenomenal achievement. At state level, Marita and Sierra competed against the best students from all over Victoria! Well done Sierra and Marita!

Sierra - Shot put - 3rd in shot put 11 year old girl in VICTORIA!
Curriculum:
Preps, Grade 1 and Grade 2:
The Prep to One students have been working extremely hard on their Kicking skills as they have been practising their kicking towards and at a target. We will continue our kicking unit for two more weeks, before moving on to Single-handed striking. In grade two, we have been developing our two handed striking abilities through a variety of different striking and fielding techniques for cricket and baseball.
Grades 3-6:
The Grade Three to Six students have completed their end of year Fundamental Movement Skills test where they need to navigate their way through an obstacle course, with precision and accuracy in a short time. We will now be moving on to Cricket and Danish longball.
