What's happening in Physical Education?

The students have settled back into the specialist program well. The Prep-2 students have been practising the one and two handed strike, as well as the bounce. These skills are fundamental for them to master in becoming competent at sports like tennis, t-ball, softball, cricket, rounders and basketball. The grade 3/4 students have been learning the basics to cricket. They have rotated positions in learning what the bowler, batter, fielder and wicket keepers roles are throughout the match. The grade 5/6 students have been playing cricket and have building on their game strategies.  This is so they become a more stronger and successful team within this game.
