Our wonderful teacher Ms Boucher has applied for many sporting school grants and has been successful on many occasions. Our school has been granted $2400 for this term and we have enjoyed playing tennis throughout PE lessons with a fabulous coach from Excel Tennis. The students have loved learning and practicing to perform striking skills such as a forehand shot, backhand shot and a volley. It has been a lot of fun.
Please take a look at some of the photos from the tennis clinic.
Grade 6 students and some grade 5 students this year, make up our Interschool Sport teams. They play against other schools in the Cheltenham District. There is a girls team and a mixed team for each sport. The teams include Hot Shots (tennis), cricket, volleyball and teeball.
Last Friday we played an ‘away’ game at Stella Maris PS. The students all participated very well and enjoyed playing against other students.
