Junior Mini Aths 2024
Students in Year F-2 participated enthusiastically on a warm and steamy Wednesday in the Junior Athletics Day, displaying their locomotor, manipulative and teamwork skills learnt in PE throughout the year. The focus was on using correct technique, being safe and demonstrating Team Spirit. Activities included Tic Tac Toss, Sack Races, Adapted Shot Put/Discus/Javelin, Soccer Dribbling and Goal-kicking, Relays Galore, Sprinting, Throwing and Catching, Hoops and Skipping, Dance Routines and Gymnastics.
It was exciting to see students wearing their House colours with pride and cheering each other on. It was also lovely to have members of the St Patrick’s community onsite to watch students display our school values in a positive and active manner.
Thank you to the Year 6 students who helped to run the events applying organisational skills learnt during their PE lessons, helping staff and supporting students throughout the day.
Thank you to the amazingly supportive St Patrick’s Staff who adjusted their daily routines to allow learning of a different kind to occur.
Stay active!
