On Wednesday 4 September, 5K had a Soccer Carnival held by the ‘A’ team (a group of Year 10 Sport Science students). 5K were spilt into four groups, these groups then rotated through a circuit with games that cover basic soccer skills. These games were: Coach Serves - a ball is passed into the middle and then a one on one game commences; Protect and Pounce – players protect their ball while trying to knock other players balls out; Ten Pin Bowling: players try to knock down ten cones; and Through the Gate: players try to pass a soccer ball through a set of cones. After learning these skills, 5K students put them into practise with a 12 versus 12 soccer game. Although neither team won the game, the focus was on having fun.

We would like to thank the sponsors of the Carnival, ACT Health and the Cancer Council who provided goods for the sponsorship packs which were given to the students. Thanks to Mother Nature for providing fruit for the students to snack on throughout the Carnival.

We also like to thank 5K, for their participation and wiliness to learn. We hope that the day was as fun for them as it was for us.
