Ball Progression Game
Part of: Safe active play
Pairs face off across a 20 by 10 metre rectangle, three pairs playing at once. Catch and pass, step to the next marker, and hand over at the last one. Warm up wrists and hips, stretch to cool down, and notice forearm muscles with care.
Why it matters. Passing builds coordination.

Ghorpad and Four Stones

In Ghorpad, lines of 5-8 pupils hold waists while each head chases rival tails for 10 minutes. In Four Stones, five players dodge a denner to collect four stones, then group up or circle thrice. Value learning over winning.

Hawk and Up-standers
Part of: Safe active play
