St Raphael's School
Foundation
Over the last few weeks the Foundation students have been practicing a number of different movements including leaping, hopping and dodging. They have been doing this over obstacle courses that have got gradually harder during each lesson. Towards the end of the lesson the students have celebrated their learning with a relay across the obstacle course.
The Two Handed Strike
In Year 1 - 6 the main focus in PE has been the two handed strike which the students have been practicing in a variety of ways. The younger students have been practicing hit off a tee to a target, while the older students have played different games including a version of tee ball. The Year 5/6 students have also learnt and practiced some basic hockey skills.
AFL Clinics
Through a connection to the school, we are fortunate enough have former Adelaide Crows champion Ben Hart coming out to run a football clinic with our Year 5/6 students on Thursday June 9. The following two weeks will see AFL Victoria run clinics during PE for students from Foundation to Year 6.
