TERM 2 PHYSICAL EDUCATION, INTERSCHOOL & DISTRICT SPORT

Term 2 at MPPS, saw a busy, but very productive sporting calendar.  In PE, students continued to learn, develop and refine their motor skills across varying sport units, while learning and sharing their 'Personal Strengths' after each lesson. By selecting a quality that they were good at from our "Super Student Strengths" wall, all students were able to identify their greatness within each session and working on different strengths every week.  Interschool Sport saw two classic Winter sports in Netball and AFL, with the addition of Hot Shots Tennis into the fold.  Grade 4/5/6 students participated weekly demonstrating their abilities in leadership, resilience, collaboration and positive sporting behaviours.  District Cross Country saw our largest team yet, compete at Bundoora Park in 2km and 3km events.  A special mention goes to Matilda and Kristen for their fantastic effort and  Top 10 results, that saw them progress to the Division level where they did Mernda Park very proud.  The Sporting Schools Program enabled all students from Prep-6 to participate in Tennis run by our local Yan Yean Tennis Club.  Wow!  An amazing term, completed, with more events to come next term!
