Thalheimer Feb 24-28

All classes this week we had a combination of Combatives Games, Pickleball/Tennis, Handball in PE. The Pickleball/Tennis was an extension of our previous Tennis Classes when we had the instructor from the Alberta Tennis Center. The Combatives Games were a mix of different type of Wrestling Games on our Mat in the Aux Gym. All classes were great in the Combatives and they really enjoyed the games and battles.

Next Week:
