Fast Track

Year 7, 8 & 9 Fast Track- Term 3

During this term, Fast Track students have done a number of both theory and practical exercises. This term for theory we have been learning about bones and muscles. We watched two videos, one on bones and one on muscles. Then we completed a number of revisions and activities to prepare for a test, containing questions and labelling tasks.

Fast Track also had two representatives from Collingwood Football Club join us, and their names where Declan and Joel. During their seven-week program with us, they taught us how to correctly kick the ball, to correctly handball and how to set up on a field. They also played games with us, such as a touch football, hit the backboard, handball and end zone.

During this Term the Year 7, 8 and 9 students had an early start. We began at 7:30 am, and we trained for group fitness, on own personal fitness program or an individual sport.

The Fast Track Year 8 boys’ and girls’ basketball teams competed in a competition representing our school. The boys came 3rd and the also girls came 3rd place. It was an amazing effort from both teams, considering they boys only had 6 players.

This has been a great term, and we have done and experienced so much. We are looking forward to the Vital Bodies excursion next term, where we will continue our investigation on bones and muscles.
