On the last Friday of Term 3, Homegroup 2 students participated in a Football and Soccer Clinic as part of ‘Footy Day’. Students had the opportunity to practice their skills whilst rotating through different activity stations. Skills developed included the handball, bounce and soccer kick.
Homegroup 1 and Homegroup 2 students worked hard on developing their catching skills during the last two lessons of on-site learning in Term 3. Objects such as bean bags and soft balls (gator balls) were used to assist students catching. Students can practice many of the activities that were used during class time and if a tennis ball is a bit difficult, get a pair of rolled up socks which is a great replica. There are many sports where catching is an important skill and improving competency of this skill will encourage students to participate in these types of sports (e.g., cricket, softball, netball, football and basketball).
