PHYSICAL

  • Land based (yoga, stretching, walking) and water based (snorkelling, swimming, surfing) activities provided holistic physical development across most physical literacy elements.
  • The girls’ surfing skills improved, particularly in the following elements:
    • Moving with equipment – use of arms and legs to move a surf board in water
    • Reaction time, strength, power and coordination – to ‘take-off’ and catch a wave
    • Stability/balance, strength and agility – to stay on the wave.
