Physical Education In The New SLC!
Going to the Student Life Center for PE is unlike anything our lower school students have experienced. 4th graders Caroline Bennett, Brie Williams, and Amelia Hoffman raved about the new gym in the SLC. They went on and on describing how big everything is and how PCA is stamped over everything. "There's like a million basketball hoops!" Caroline's excitement is evident through her overestimation.
Now that our PE department has access to a full gym, they are no longer having classes next door to the noisy lunchroom. We have the ability to have two PE classes going on at the same time, with the installation of a large curtain that comes down in the middle of the new gym. Even with the curtain down there is still a large enough space for two volleyball nets to be up or two basketball games to go on at the same time.
Coach Shelly Kaiser remarked, "The space is amazing. With the new gym we have more options and we are less likely to have injuries. It's opening up the possibilities of more units and growth in the PE department." Some of the future possibilities of PE include units on tennis, badminton, pickleball, and the hope of having a future archery team for PCA. All of our lower school teachers, coaches, and students are thankful to the Lord for the positive impact that the new gym in the SLC has had on their PE classes.
