Last term, students in Year 1 participated in the Australian Cricket’s Mascot Challenge. This cricket based challenge was developed to assist infants students develop fundamental movement skills and physical literacy. Each day, students participated in activities designed to challenge them at their own pace in a fun and inclusive environment. Each activity had a target that needed to be achieved before the students could move onto the next target. Activities included throwing, catching and bouncing. Activities were performed individually and in groups. The students had a great time getting outside and working on these skills.
