AFL (Aussie Rules)

This term for P.E the school we are doing our swimming lessons as well as AFL which stands for Aussie Rules Football. This is a very good sport for learning ball skills, team work, coordination, communication and is full of enjoyment.

Room 15 had the second week of lessons today and were learning how to Handball to each other. This was broken down into simple steps. With the students holding the ball in one hand (like it was on a plate), then swing our arms through like a pirate dance and hit the ball with the other like we had an empty ice cream cone. This followed up from last weeks lesson on the Drop punt.

It was great to get outside and enjoy the weather this afternoon after a very frosty start to the day.
