Physical Education

F-2 students in PE have been focused on key movement skills. We've focused on locomotor movements like running, hopping, jumping, and skipping to build agility and coordination. Students have also been developing crucial ball skills, including throwing, catching, and kicking. These skills are essential for their confidence and enjoyment in all physical activities.

Year 3 and 4 students have been incredibly fortunate to receive expert basketball coaching from a professional NBL1 player from the Casey Cavaliers! During these sessions, students have been actively developing fundamental basketball skills such as dribbling, passing and shooting. The opportunity to learn directly from a high-level athlete has been an inspiring experience, helping to refine their techniques and foster a deeper understanding of basketball in a fun and engaging environment.

Year 5 and 6 students have recently showcased their developing athletic abilities across a range of team sports. In T-ball, students focused on refining their hitting, fielding, and base-running strategies, demonstrating strong teamwork throughout their games. For Australian Rules Football, the emphasis was on mastering kicking, marking, and handballing skills, alongside understanding positional play and game tactics.
