Physical Education & Sport 

Welcome back everyone, I hope you all had a happy and active break. It was great to see all the students happy and ready to get back into their learning. 

Curriculum in Term 2

Our Prep and 1/2s students will dive into various throwing and catching games and sports as Term 2 begins. These fundamental movement activities foster crucial life skills, promoting healthy muscle development and enhancing hand-eye coordination. 

Meanwhile, the 3/4s will embark on a journey through target games during the initial four weeks of the term. Through engaging activities, they'll refine their kicking and throwing accuracy while enjoying lively, active games. Following this, they'll transition into a track and field unit, honing their skills for athletics.

As for the 5/6s, building upon the foundation laid in the 3/4s are looking at target sports like lawn bowls, 10 pin bowling, golf and various mini games. They will move into track and field next as they try their best to make the athletics team in Term 3. 

Interschool Sport

This terms Winter Gala Day will see the years 5/6 participate in matches of Soccer, AFL and Netball on Friday in Week 7 (31st of May). Due to the unpredictable weather in Term 2, we will only run a single gala day rather than weekly matches. Our teams were hard at training last term as we go through the selection process this term. We wish all our students the best and know they will do us proud. 

Cross Country 

This years cross country will be held at Brimbank Park on Friday Week 3 (3rd of May) . Students have been training hard to give themselves the best chance come race day. The race is a 3km track up and down the hills of Brimbank Park. A handful of students in years 4, 5 and 6 will try their best at progressing to the district level. We with them luck and hope the rain stays away. 

Any questions please come and see me,

Miss Joannidis
