One week of every month is
ROCK WALL WEEK
in P.E
for K - 8th GradeNew for 2010-2011 school year are special 'noodles' or obstacles for the children to climb under, over or through.A very exciting addition to our schools P.E program, the rock wall is taught by a certified Rock Wall Climbing teacher, during the one week of every month.
Students are reminded of these rules during Rock Wall Week:
- Bring sneakers to school. They must tie up securely.
- It is suggested that female students wear hairstyles low on the head with minimal clips etc. Each student wears a helmet whilst on the wall and high pony tails, clips etc must be taken out before wearing the helmet.
- Students may only start climbing on the wall once they have washed and dried the bottom of their shoes, put on a helmet, chalked their hands and a spotter is present.
- Not put their helmets back in the box after their turn as they must be sanitized between students.
To run efficiently, each class needs a minimum of 2 parent volunteers. One parent is a spotter and the other coordinates helmets and assigns turns on the wall.
If you would like to volunteer, please contact Mrs Henning at:
