Prep – Grade 2
The early childhood children started the term working on their manipulative skills, starting with bean bags and then moving onto large balls. They used skills of throwing and catching, dribbling, working co-operatively with a partner and in small groups and then challenging these skills within a game situation.

Grade 3-4
The middle primary grades also worked on their large ball skills - bounce, chest, shoulder passes and dribbling being the main focus. Once working in partner, group or team activities and in a competitive situation, aiming to refine their delivery.

Grade 5-6
The upper primary children explored the sport of Speedball. This is a combination of soccer and handball. Players can choose to play aerial balls or drop the ball to the ground and play soccer rules. In the game situation, if the ball is thrown and bounces on the ground they have the option to continue as soccer or using their feet, lift the ball back up to their hands or a team mates hands. A game that certainly challenged their strategies to achieve success.
