In PE students are currently playing a Badminton tournament. Students are also learning the fundamentals of a backhand, forehand, overhand and underhand hit. Our upcoming units will be Tchoukball, Hockey, and Pickleball.Tchoukball was created in Switzerland by Hermann Brandt in the 1970s. He designed tchoukball to contain elements of handball (it is played with hands, and the balls used are similar), volleyball (as the defending team must prevent the ball from falling) and squash (since there is a bounce).
