Year 6 had their first Netball lesson today. We learned how to pass the ball using the chest pass and bounce pass. We finished off by playing a game of Time Bomb. 

Year 6 enjoyed their first cricket coaching session today. They learned how to bowl - we found it was quite tricky to keep your arm straight! We finished off with a couple of cricket games. 

In Year 4 PE this week we started our cricket unit. We focused on our over arm throwing technique to help us with bowling. We also tested our reaction times and team work skills during our cricket drills.
