Friday 13 January 2023 Kent County Cricket Club Support Year 4 Year 4 have been honing their cricket skills with Adrian from Kent County Cricket club development team. The children have worked on throwing and catching the ball, how to arrange their hands in order to make sure the ball is well caught and brought into the body. Koalas and Kangaroos then played games in ball collecting and in quick, accurate passing of the ball in order to return the ball as quickly as possible. The children have also learned to bowl, aiming for the stumps and bat in order to defend those stumps. We are looking forward to the summer months and putting these and more skills into fun, cricket action!
