creative and critical abilities through performance and observation of a wider range of aesthetic experiences.
We aim to build on your child's current water skills. Students are given the opportunity to participate in a range of team games, and to demonstrate a depth of understanding of games principles and rules. Many aspects of track and field athletics are covered; students are able to develop personal talents.
