P.E. with Leigh

The focus for 5/6 children this term has been striking sports in particular cricket. The particular skills are bowling, batting and fielding skills. Some of the children participated in T20 Blast cricket and competed against schools across the district. The Inter school sports program has started but unfortunately some games have been postponed at present with a view to playing them later in the year. The school basketball program has started at lunch and is an option for children at lunch times. It has a rookie’s and an A and B team component.

The junior grades have been focusing on ball skills with an emphasis on hand eye coordination through small games. The children in foundation are now settled into the routines of being at school and have been working on group cooperation and development of their skill base.
