IMPLEMENTATION: Children will move along 3 stations that will allow them to practise individual skills that they can include in a game of their own..

IMPACT: That children will develop a range of skills and understand how pieces of equipment can be used in a game.

INTENT: For children to use an underarm throw in and a game and recognise what physical skills they are using.
