Project+Energize

These are some of our ideas about athletics. We are training ourselves to be ready for the interschool sports. Jen from Project Energize came in and gave us some handy hints and tips. This is what we already know about some of the sports and how to approach them.

We'll let you know how well we did at the interschool athletics!
