Athletics coming up!!:)

At the end of term three we started getting prepared for athletics day which is on the 24th of October. We have been training hard. So far this term we have been rotating at different events such as discus, sprints, long distance, etc. for practice. 

We are all looking forward to this day, it's better than work lol. 

We have been getting our sport coaches to teach us some techniques for athletics, today we did high jump and long jump with them which was really fun. :) For long jump we got told to use not only our legs but to use our arms to help us jump further. We all improved with their help. 

For high jump we use what everyone calls the scissor kick, which is throwing your legs over the bar in a scissor formation, this way is the best/easiest. 

Athletics is great.
