In PE this week, Upper Primary and Secondary finished preparing for their Sports Day next week. This week year 8 continued to refine their relay technique, looking at the baton handover to lane positioning and ensuring smooth transitions in the handover. Here is a video of them performing this.
Grade 9’s began doing fitness assessments ahead of their Health Related Fitness Unit. They have now completed the Bleep test, stork stand, ruler drop, agility run, vertical jump and the grip hang test. All of these tests measure different components of fitness and we will be looking at these all in more detail as we go through the unit. We completed the grip strength test in the PYP playground and you can see a couple of photos of them in action here. You will also notice that they found a little time to also ‘test out’ the PYP playground equipment 🙂
