What have we been up to this week?
The football season might be coming to a close but, in Ambleside reception, the football has just kicked off! The PE sessions for Class 1, 2 and 3 have focused on an introduction to ball skills. This paves the way for a confident approach to our most popular sport, football. The children learn to dribble and successfully stop the ball. We also work on removing the temptation to pick the ball up with our hands. It is a multi-faceted practice that helps confidence in other ball games such as basketball and rugby. Brilliantly, when scoring a goal, the reception children have added their own finesse by using their creative dance for the celebrations!
