KEEPING ACTIVE @ ST PAUL'S
Recently the media reported on the importance of engaging children in physical activities to combat the growing obesity levels among children. Thankfully at St Paul's we are trying to give the students many opportunities to develop their skills and improve their fitness levels. During this term the Dance Fever Team has returned with the emphasis on skipping. Year Five love it as is seen by the blog below.
Throughout the year the students are also able to participate in many gala days. Our latest gala day focussed on netball.
So far year 5 have been learning lots of cool skipping. Our skipping teachers taught us new skills.Holly!
Hi guys, on monday we did skipping it was fun Claudia f.
On Monday we attended the skipping program. We learnt how to do speed skipping it was really fun and tiring. Alsa
WOW! Monday was so much fun I didn't want to leave the skipping program it is always a blast . we have challenges that are awesome and our tricks are really spectacular and fun! thanks so much Lieutenant and Tommy.Eliza.
Each week Year Five have a goal to learn a new strategy. Being our second week we focussed on speed. From far away it looks easy but close up it looks really hard. The instructors taught us techniques to go faster than usual. You keep your feet really low and only twist your wrists.
On Tuesday the 21/7/15 year 3 to 6 girls went to the Netball Gala Day they had a great day meanwhile the rest of year 5 and year 6 children listened to Mr Murray talking about his life and all types of bulling and solutions to stop bulling.We all enjoyed our very special day with Netball and Mr Murray's visit.At the netball gala day all the girls had an amazing day versing many different schools around the diocese.
Congrats to the girls who represented our school at the St Bernadette's netball gala day.
On Tuesday the netball Gala day went ahead. Girls from Years 3-6 went and everyone had fun. Even though some people lost their games we all had a good day. Special thanks to the volunteers and teachers who helped on the day and to Mr Lehmann for organising the day.
This week girls went to the gala day. Even though we did not win all of our games we had a lot of fun. A big thanks to all the parents who helped and came along to support us. great work to Year Six and Year 3 who won the whole day. We hope we get the opportunity to participate in it again next year.
Unfortunately we were going to have our athletics carnival on Thursday but due to rain t was postponed for the second time. Hopefully we will have better luck next time. It was a week of disappointment, a we also discovered our good friend Declan is leaving. We will miss you Declan and wish you all the best at your new school.
