What's happening at CHPS

Sports News

Well the term is already flying and we are up to week 6!!  There have been lots of activities happening in. PE and Sport.  The Middles and Seniors have just completed a unit on Hockey and have had a great time learning the skills of dribbling, passing and shooting. We completed the unit with a great game where the students learnt their different positions and played with a fast moving ball.  The games of hockey were very impressive to watch how the students had improved their skills over the 4 weeks. 

The Juniors have been learning about Cricket with Mrs Yorke and Teeball with me.  Again, the students progressed from doing skills of hitting the ball to a modified game. 

Platoon is now up and running again for the term, where all the classes come outside for their different skills each week and are rotating through the different sports:  in the Middle school with Cricket, Basketball, Sofcrosse, Teeball and Volleyball.  The Juniors are all rotating through the same sports, but they are doing Soccer instead of Sofcrosse.  The Seniors are doing their unit of SEPEP ( Sports Education in Physical Education Program) with many different sports being played.
