FOOTBALL VICTORIA - PE
Football Victoria (soccer) came to CEPS during the week to run a clinic. Jon and Chelsea were fabulous coaches engaging all the students, we had such a wonderful day on Wednesday!
Chelsea and Jon were very generous with their time as originally we only had 3 sessions booked in. They were more than happy to stay the whole day and were enthusiastic with every class that came out. The students had so much fun, the ‘dress up/costume’ tops for the World Cup were a hit!! I think the students believed they were playing for the world cup for Italy, Spain, Germany and Australia 😊
We had nearly half of the school participate in the Football Victoria Clinic ranging from Foundation through to Grade 6. And the grade 5 girls loved the girls only session.
Please enjoy the montage of photos.
