We played a game where some of us were crocodiles and the others had to try to get past.

Rounders, dodgeball and benchball!

We've had a lot of fun playing team games in our ECA. Last week we went onto the field and played 'tail tag' and 'rounders.' Many of us had not played rounders before.

This week we played dodgeball and benchball in the gym. It was a very close game which we didn't finish....we'll see who wins next week!

We are practicing sit ups to make our core strong.
