Sporting Schools Grant Yr 3-6 GOLF
This Friday and next the children in Years 3-6 will take part in a 30min golf session in the school paddock for sport. As part of the grant money we were also able to purchase appropriately sized clubs and soft balls for students to practise and apply their striking and hitting skills as part of the PE syllabus.
