Last week S1 Amazon learnt to balance during our sport lesson.

First we walked outside to area 4 and set up the sports equipment. The first activity was to walk on a balancing beam. We had to put our arms out to steady ourselves!

The second activity was when we walked along a line, then had to balance on one foot, bend down and pick up a beanbag.

The last activity had us throw a ball to a buddy and catch it as we balanced on one foot.

Before each activity our teacher (Mrs Reed) put a timer on, so that everyone could swap activities and have a go at every station.

We had lots and lots of fun.
