As students have now experienced and recapped all the athletics events, they have begun refining and developing their skills in the areas where they feel further progress or practice is needed ahead of the upcoming sports day. We have also taken time to explore the more technical components of each discipline, helping students deepen their understanding of how technique influences performance. This week’s particular focus was the relay, where we looked closely at the strategies required to execute the event effectively and efficiently.
Students examined key elements such as the baton handover, lane positioning, and the importance of precise teamwork. We also discussed how communication, timing, and trust within a relay team can significantly impact overall performance. Throughout the sessions, students have shown growing confidence as they apply these concepts and work together to improve their transitions and speed. Here are some photos of the Grade 8’s in action
