Picking a ball at the starting point, the children slide to the next point.

Developing their coordination as they slide (open, close, open, close ….).

Using the overhead throw, the children practice their aim as they throw the ball

through the hoops hanging in front of them.

Confidence training!

The Love children build their confidence as they attempt to jump from a height.

Warming up with a sprint towards the Teacher when their name is called and give Teacher a high 5!


Practising jumping for distance. This week, the distance between one jump to the next was increased!

The children were encouraged to step up the block instead of crawling up.

It was really great to see them trying!

Well done!


Walking to the end of the block, the Love children were challenged to jump off the block

and land with 2 feet.

The children were taught the technique of bending their knees when they land.

The Love 2 children’s courage was stretched further as they cross over 2 blocks with a gap in the middle!
