In Secondary a lot of time was spent this week on refining our lay-ups. I am pleased to say that most students in secondary are now relatively fluent and confident when doing a lay-up and some students are even making progress on their left handed lay-up. I think they were more surprised than I when their attempts started to go in. In Primary we concentrated on passing and spent a lot of time on passing games to help the students with the idea of passing and getting into space which is an important concept for most team sports.
In swimming all students spent time working on their frontcrawl and breastroke techniques with Secondary students taking their first times of the year.
This year we have some great new equipment for the younger or beginner swimmers that is designed to promote confidence in the water and facilitate their kicking techniques. It also provides the opportunity for a lot of fun.
