During term 3, 2010 grade 5/6 students at Wang West are participating in a Fully Fit Fully Sic fitness program. This is where students participate in 3 half hour fitness sessions per week and one gymnastics session. They are also learning about healthy bodies and lifestyles. Our Barr Reserve Fitness sessions have been a wonderful eye opener for students, seeing that fitness and exercise is not just about playing and training for an organised sport or going for a run or a walk. There are so many other ways to get fit. In this session students thought they were going to have a tug of war... eagerly every one ran to get their position on the rope. Next Brandon our instructor asked everyone to lift the rope above their head and start running to the other end of the oval. The students were asked to do lots of different tasks with the rope and at no stage was the rope alowed to touch the ground. The look on the kids faces was priceless and the enthusiasm was inspiring! Lots of fun getting fit, indeed!
