Today we had a fantastic session with Daniel from Little Athletics. He taught us how to do the high jump and many of the warm up activities that lead to each of us being able to jump safely onto the mat. We did lots of running and stretching to warm up our leg muscles. Then Daniel explained how to run up to the mat and then jump over the elastic rope used in high jump. We gave us lots of turns at jumping over the rope and we loved every minute of it. We were lucky enough to receive a wristband, a certificate and and information pamphlet explaining times that Little athletics starts in Term 4.

Last week John from Little Athletics came to our school to run a quick session to teach us how to do the high jump.
We had lots of fun and laughs learning which side to jump from and how to land safely on the mats.
Here’s some photos of our session.
