Term 2 Sports
Class 8
This term in Class 8, in preparation for the Netball Carnival they attended, the students completed a 5-week unit on Netball at Mundaring Arena. They explored the skills of footwork, passing, attacking skills, defensive skills, and shooting. The students spent time learning the positional roles and court allowances of each position and the games we played showed great growth in all students. It was an enjoyable unit for all, and it was great to see the students apply their skills at the carnival.
Class 9
In Term 2 the Class 9 students have been working on their Rock-Climbing skills. Quite a few of the students in this class have already had some climbing experience so I have been in awe of some of the skills they have put on display in the last few weeks.
We have done a mix of bouldering and Rock Climbing with every single student putting any fears aside each week and actively participating in the sessions, great work Class 9’s!
