College Sport at Mount Carmel
This week, students in Years 7 - 10 participated in one period of structured sport and movement activities and one period of independent study. However, this week also marked the re-introduction of equipment which meant that many students engaged in games including soccer, touch football, basketball, volleyball netball and slider hockey. It was quite an incredible sight to once again see our fields, courts and Champagnat Centre filled with the excitement of students participating in some friendly sporting competitions under the direction of staff. Meanwhile, external instructions led Years 8 and 10 through a range of activities including fitness circuits, yoga and zumba. Please see below a few images of students participating in sport over the past two weeks:
A more detailed outline of what the students will be participating in is outlined below:
We have decided to continue with this adjusted approach for the following reasons:
- Utilisation of space: We will have less students utilising the College sporting facilities / ovals at the one time.
- Use of equipment with hygiene promotion: We have chosen to reintroduce sporting equipment with continued promotion of hygiene practices and the availability of hand sanitisation stations. Equipment will also be wiped before, after and in between sessions.
- Promote movement and physical activity: We understand that many students would have found it challenging to find opportunities to be physically active whilst remote learning so we want to ease them back into physical activity and movement.
This adjusted approach will continue to evolve and develop as does the guidance and advice from the CEO.
