What sporting activities do you participate in?

Wally is leaning at lot about sports at Gladstone Central. Everyday each class goes out for 30mins to take part in Smart Moves - physical activity which involves huff and puff and skill learning. As we are now coming into winter in Australia our sports have changed a little. We play netball (like basketball but you can't bounce the ball), rugby league, basketball, Australian rules football and soccer. June is a big Track and Field month with our Sports Day being held very soon. In the summer months (November - January), our sports includes lots of swimming activities, cricket, basketball and volleyball. We also love to skip at Gladstone Central and have a pretty cool skipping demonstration team - video on the way!

What sports do you all play? Do you play different sports in different times of the year?

  6. Here in PA, we play a lot of sports. We play soccer, basketball, swimming and many more but it would take a lot of paper to write them all down. My favorite sport to play is basketball. Since I really enjoy playing basketball, I thought it was very interesting that your version of basketball you don't bounce the ball, and our version of basketball you have to bounce the ball or it would be called a travel.

    I have a question for you:
    What is your favorite sport?
