Physical Education and Sport

Welcome back to a fun packed term in PE!

This term we are looking forward to moving into our Football codes, focusing on AFL, soccer and rugby. Students will participate in activities and games that will improve their understanding of the rules and basic skills to play the invasion games of AFL, soccer and rugby. The skills covered will be handballing, kicking, marking, passing and shooting for goal, or scoring a try, as well as running into space to receive the ball. At the end of term we will be having a fun filled day celebrating all things football codes!

In the first two weeks of this term, all students from Foundation to Year Six have been focusing on learning the rules, strategies and skills involved in playing Rugby.
