SKIPnROPE Workshop
December 2019
On the 6th December 2019, Mark McCabe from Skip ‘n’ Rope visited our school to run a skipping workshop! Classes got the opportunity to learn some new ways to skip! We had a great day and even had a demonstration for the whole school at the end of the day! We learned some great new moves such as ‘The Arm Wrap’, ‘The Forward Skip’, The Backward Skip’, ‘The X-skip’, ‘The Criss Cross’ and ‘The Butterfly’ to name just a few! We will get practising these moves now in preparation for our ‘Climbing the Heights’ skipping challenge in January/February! Thanks to Mark from Skip ‘n’ Rope for the great workshop!
