Batting and BSL

In PE last week children enjoyed practising their batting skills with a cricket bat. On Friday, children completed their BSL greetings unit! #LovePlover

For today’s P.E. we began by developing our bowling and batting skills in cricket. Unfortunately, rain stopped play so we headed inside to stretch and relax with some yoga. Great co-operation and involvement from all, well done!

Today year 6 had been learning ball skills for cricket. After observing how to bowl a ball, they practiced this by trying to hit the wicket and catch the ball. They then learnt how to use the bat and practiced swinging it to hit the ball to the bowler. At the end, year 6 played a mini game of cricket, batting the ball to the fielders. Well done year 6 for great practice today!
