PE News 13.5.22

This week we have moved on to volleyball. It was too windy to continue our badminton skills so, fingers crossed, we can finish those next week!

Years 1 and 2 were hall bound for their PE due to the very wet weather that day. We opted for lovely yoga lesson with Cosmic Kids as our lesson this week. Year 1 followed the story of Disney's Frozen and year 2 followed Trollz. We did lots of yoga poses like Downward Dog, Butterfly, Gate and Cobra, to name a few. Some of us found the balances very tricky and had to practise focussing on a spot in front of us to help! We all worked hard and were glad of the relaxation section at the end of the lesson!

Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 looked at five of the main volleyball shots, spike, dig, set, block and the underarm serve. Then we worked in groups around five different stations, each with a focus on one particular shot. At the stations was a variety of equipment like cones, hoops and different size and weight balls. We also had an instruction sheet with diagrams of the shot and different drills for us to try to perfect the shot. Once we had rotated around every station, we used field lines or cones as a net and played short games, trying to use all of the shots we had learned.

We're hoping for calmer weather next week as we're super excited to try out our new nets!

Have a lovely weekend!
