Term 4 has been a busy but fantastic start to the final term of 2020. Our Y9 ADP students have been engaged in Identifying and Understanding: ‘The Role of a Coach’, ‘Coaching Styles’ and ‘The Main Roles of a Coach’.
During theory sessions, students have been working on the Australian Institute of Sport ‘General Coaching Principles’ e-learning online course, which will give them a coaching certificate on completion.
Over the next few weeks, the students will start designing fun, interactive, sport/physical activity lessons for our visit over to the Varsity College Junior Campus. In groups on the day, the students will be teaching Year 1, 2 & 3 classes, focusing on their roles as coach/mentor.
During practical sessions students have been enjoying the experience of Kayaking on Lake Orr every Wednesday afternoon with qualified kayaking coaches. As you can see from the photos, these sessions bring a lot of smiles, physical and technical work, as well as quite a few drenched students.
