On your marks...GO!

We had some 3-legged races during athletics practise today. It was so much fun as you can see on the faces of the girls in the photo!
Shana and Jadine quickly worked how to run with their legs moving at the same time - they can run very fast together.

Other people found it really difficult to co-ordinate their legs with out tripping themselves up. Some people tried to just walk at first to get into a rhythm. It was a great way to learn how to work together as a team. It's also a good idea to buddy up with someone who is a similar height to you and to put your arms around each others shoulders for support. This makes it easier to balance and steady yourself.


Here you can see Breeze and Chloe trying to hold each other up!
We visited the Tyre Shop last week and asked them for an old inner tube. Miss Robinson then cut up the rubber into strips so there were plenty for everyone to have a go with today.
We will keep practising and see if we can improve a bit more!
