Dear students, parents and families,  

First of all, welcome back to 2024! Secondly, this year we are excited to announce the 2 newest members of staff in PE in Mr Tivendale and Mr Raffaele after Mr Elorza and Mr Firman moved on to pursue new opportunities. We genuinely wish them all the best and thank them for their efforts whilst at Tarneit Rise and look forward to what 2024 can bring.

Preps 

We welcome the preps as our littlest students this year. Term 1 for preps at Tarneit Rise is all about learning the routines of PE at Tarneit, learning to take off and putting on our shoes and socks and most importantly learn the Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) of PE; Running, Hopping, Side-steps, Two-footed jump, Skipping and Moving Backwards.       

Grade 1 & 2

Grade 1 & 2's are starting 2024 with a refresher on routine, reviewing the FMS and develop our locomotor and running skills. 

Vocab words:

Grade 3 to 6 - Game Sense

Our Grade 3-6 cohort are beginning a game-sense unit of Striking and Fielding Games, the emphasis of the unit is to develop striking technique, awareness of fielder positions when on the offence and understand how to restrict scoring and increase the number of batter you get out when on defence. The skills and movements are similar across all the striking and fielding games and we look to identify those students who can apply cross-game skills effectively.
