A Word from Mr West
So far this year in Physical Education we have had a very busy schedule. We have had a focus on Tennis with Coach Nick Martin running some extremely exciting sessions with all grades and we look forward to having some students represent our school in a tennis tournament later in the year. We have also had lots of fun playing games with the Early Childhood grades which focus on developing students’ fundamental movement skills and coordination.
After the success of last year’s Ride2School day Glen Huon Primary School will be running another Ride2School day this Thursday, March 12th at the Glen Huon Oval. We will be meeting Bicycle Network’s Shane at the Oval and he will be coordinating the ride to school as well as sessions of bicycle and road safety for all students so it would be fantastic to get as many people there as possible to ride, scoot or walk to school as one big group! Last year we had over 70 people involved in the morning so it would be great to see as many if not more of our students getting active on their way to school! Parents are more than welcome to ride or walk to school with us!
Unfortunately our Swimming Carnival did not go ahead due to poor weather, however we are looking forward to running the carnival later in March to ensure students are able to gain confidence and skills in the water so watch this space for details about that!
Important dates coming up this term:
Ride2School and Bicycle Safety Sessions – March 12
Huon & Channel Swimming Carnival – Monday March 16
School Swimming Carnival – Wednesday March 25 (TBC)
