10PASS Gearing Up for SportsFun!

Our Year 10 Physical Activity and Sports Studies elective students have been getting prepared for SportsFun next term. The SportsFun program allows St Joseph's students to coach local primary school students in a range of sports to increase skills and understanding. 

We have been preparing our PASS students to coach through modelled sessions and peer coaching. Our students especially liked the peer coaching lesson on warm up games which “took them back to their primary school days”. They excitedly participated (quite competitively) as they learned how to coach and play old favourites such as Duck, Duck Goose, Teepee’s and Indian’s, What’s the Time Mr Wolf?, Cat and Mouse, Chaos and Stuck in the Mud.

We look forward to teaching the students more coaching skills and are excited to see the creativity, collaboration and sense of community that SportsFun promotes. We will provide an update on how our students do next term!
