On Friday 16th March the children took part in a series of skipping challenges to raise money for Sport Relief. These included a team skip challenge, backwards skip, hoop skip and a skip relay.

The children showed great sportsmanship, cheering on their team and supporting each other. Not only did we have lots of fun, the money raised will go to Sport Relief and help disadvantaged people across the UK.

Thank you to all of you for your kind donations!

Olympic Athletes Visit!

By Reception, Year 1, Year 2 No Comments

On Tuesday we had two Olympic Athletes visit our school- Richard Buck and Marylin Okoro. The children got to meet the athletes in assembly and heard all about their lives, their sport and their achievements. We even got to see their medals!

Every class had a PE lesson with the athletes in which they completed a challenging obstacle course and fast paced relay races! The children all enjoyed the day, describing it as “inspiring”, “exciting” and “challenging”.
