We've been using the new volleyballs and training tools to practice serving, passing, and teamwork during structured drills and small-group games. One memorable moment was watching students who were initially hesitant gain confidence as they successfully completed a rally together. When they first saw the new equipment, their excitement was immediat and many students couldn't wait to try it out and were eager to participate, even those who don't usually enjoy PE as much.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our classroom has become a space where students feel motivated to challenge themselves and work collaboratively. The next steps in our volleyball unit include applying their skills in modified games, focusing on communication, sportspersonship, and strategy. Students are also reflecting on their progress and setting personal goals for improvement. Your support has not only provided equipment, but has created meaningful learning experiences that will continue to impact my students long after this unit ends.

They've helped students build confidence, develop teamwork, and form new friendships during class and recess. It has been inspiring to watch shy students step onto the court with ease now that there is enough equipment for everyone to participate fully. Your support didn't just provide sports gear; it opened the door to joy, inclusion, and new opportunities for growth every single day.
