Description

Grace FIT!

Thursday Morning Classes with Coach Maurece!

These Fun and Functional group training sessions are tailored to the development and positive growth of students in Grades 4-6 at Grace Lutheran Primary School.

Sessions will be coached by a qualified Personal Trainer, they are carefully structured and devised through fundamentals of movement to teach students how to ‘move’ their body, especially as they start to navigate those growth spurts!

Programming will be based on specific skills targeted for each session, developing a wide range of skills useful for development such as

  • Primal Movements (Crawl, Jump, Run, Skip etc)

  • Bodyweight control (Push ups, Pull ups)

  • Power Development (Explosive Jumps)

  • Hand-Eye Coordination (Throwing and Catching, Reflexes)

  • Foot-Eye coordination (Dribbling, Kicking)

‘Grace FIT!’ classes will be held over 6 consecutive Thursdays from 7:30 – 8:15am.  Students will need to wear their PE Uniform, and get changed into their formal uniform afterwards, if it is not a normal sports day for them. They will meet Coach Maurece at the entrance of The Hall where they will have their name marked off of the roll and then head to their training area for the morning. Coach Maurece may run sessions held on the Junior Playground, Dalton Oval or even the Library pending the focus of that session and weather conditions on the day.

To minimise injury, students are required to be on time to their training session as the warm up and stretching components are pivotal to safe training practices and developing their understanding of how to train effectively and safely.

T&Cs – Please note that due to the nature of a group class, no makeup lessons or credits will be offered for absenteeism. This is a drop off class and is closed to family members to observe, thus ensuring every student is focussed on their class and working towards their own personal best. Grace standards of behaviour are required at all times in this class and maintaining that high level of standards is central in the continued involvement of each child in the program.
