Healthy Habits
Throughout the year the children in Year Three have learnt about the importance of keeping healthy. During Term1 the 'Healthy Harold' van visited our school and the children learnt about the importance of healthy eating habits as well as the role medicines play in our lives. They also were kept active by participating in weekly gymnastic lessons, where they learnt how to complete somersaults and use the mini trampoline.  During term 3, 'Sports In Schools' came to our school and the children were involved in weekly skills development lessons. It is a fun way to high the importance of keeping active.
This term the children will participate in swimming lessons during week 6/7. 
At the moment the children have been developing their ball skills by participating in class activities based on the popular playground game of "Handball".

Lewis: We enjoy playing handball.
April: Mrs Tannous taught us the proper way to play handball.
Zac: Year Three have enjoyed playing handball since Kindy. Now we know how to play fairly.
Tahli: We have taken some pictures of handball. 
Handball is getting harder now we all know how to play.

It is an enjoyable way to add some exercise to our day.
