The
Physical Education Program at St. Ambrose seeks to introduce the students
to sports which they will further develop at the high school level. Students
participate in cross country training, tennis, baseball, volleyball, soccer,
basketball , kickball, softball, floor hockey and flag football. They also
experience a medley of track events. | 
| Students
in the lower grades (Kindergarten through 4th) enjoy games such as horseshoes,
ping pong and gym bowling. A highlight for the 5th and 6th graders is an
annual field trip to a local bowling alley for several games. The 7th and
8th graders experience the thrill of hiking during their annual physical
education field trip. During
the past school year, St. Ambrose School held a "mini-Olympics" to coincide
with the 2002 Winter Olympics. Students participated in games which reflected
the official Olympic games. |
