It was so lovely to be able to use the field to kick off our Athletics for the term. We began with a great warm up being able to use the space and run. We discussed managing sprinting mixed with fast walking to manage pace. Everyone was able to feel their heart beating. We stopped to talk about how we can encourage each other and also discussed finding your own pace. It is not just about overtaking.
We moved on to a circuit of jumping, slalom and hurdles, working together to share space and equipment which is always a challenge.
We finished our session with a relay race. These have become more complex over time and the Pioneers always enjoy the challenge and the competition
The wind blew and the parachute gave us a nice little upper body workout!
Happy Learning
