My Project

My PE students could benefit from having new sports equipment to use in their Physical Education classes. A lot of the current equipment we use is very old and worn down. It is hard to play certain games with the limited number of sports balls we currently have.

We play a variety of games and sports in PE and we would like to purchase new equipment to help keep our students excited about the games we are playing in class.

We also allow other teachers to borrow our equipment, so we could recycle the older equipment to share with the other classes in our school.
