Health & P.E. 

This week in P.E, the Foundation -  Year 2 students learnt a new team game called chains. This game focuses on aiming and throwing. If the students successfully throw the beanbag in the 1st hoop, they are able to steel a link from another team and attach it to their chain. The team that has the longest chain at the end are the winners. This was such a fun game, the students have already requested to play it again!

 

An additional new game we learnt is called 'Protect the Castle'. Again, the focus being throwing and aiming for the castle cones. Four knights are selected to protect the castle from being knocked down. What a fun team game this is involving, throwing, aiming, defending, protecting and attacking!

The students have been looking forward to this all week and were so grateful for this session. They had a blast!
