Physical Education

Students have continued to learn and practise events for our Whole School Athletics Carnival. Over the last two weeks, students in Prep - 2 have continued to practise the shuttle relay, vortex and tunnel ball, as well as participate in hurdles and long jump. Students in 3 - 6 have been refining their technique in high jump, long jump and triple jump.
