PE Lessons (Term Three)
For the remainder of Term Three, Prep to Year Two will be participating in a striking unit where they learn how to perform a punt kick with an AFL ball, in-step kick with a soccer ball and a hand strike using a tennis ball. The students will then utilize these skills in modified games working in team situations. Prep to year one will also participate in six station activities each week focusing on throwing, catching, bouncing, balancing, locomotive skills, and movement activities.
