Playing a reflexes game to end our roadshow.
Every time Drew bounced the ball, we had to clap. If we didn’t we were out….
…if we clapped and he didn’t bounce it, we were out. Kieran in 5F won this game by battling Jake and Matthew in 5W.
We have learned a lot about being healthy. To reward us for our hard work, the Newcastle Eagles coaches gave each child a 
for free entry to their next home match on the 11th of December at Sport Central. Parents even get in for a discounted price, using the instructions on the ticket.
