A Magical Sporting Performance by our Key Stage 1 and Foundation Students
Thanks to Coach Jo from the Swim Team for putting this together!
Last Wednesday and Thursday our Key Stage 1 and Foundation Stage students took part in their annual Sports Days. This is a week we always look forward to in the PE Department as the Primary Back Field becomes a hive of activity and colour as each class spread themselves around the various stations. With such a wide variety of activities it is a great opportunity for the students to demonstrate their athletic prowess and show their peers and parents how much they have learnt in their PE lessons.
Each event has a wide variety of activities as varied as the Hockey Dribble Challenge, Javelin Throw, Three Spring Jump and the Obstacle Course. It certainly is an exhausting morning as they are given six minutes at each station. Our Key Stage 1 students were first up on the Wednesday and they certainly didn’t show any sign of nerves as they got stuck into the events. There were some amazing performances on display and it was clear that the students were thoroughly enjoying themselves. Each class gave it their all and by the end there were some exhausted looking faces. After saying some thank yous’ and giving out the participation ribbons the students were treated to a well deserved ice lolly! Well done everyone!
Miss Betsy and Miss Fiona write regarding our Foundation Stage Sports Day
Once upon a time (Thursday 22nd February) all the Foundation Stage students visited a land far, far away (the Primary fields), to participate in their annual Sports Day. The theme was fairy tales and children’s stories. The children tried to see if they could run as fast as the gingerbread man, make Humpty Dumpty fall off his wall, help Jack collect and sort his magic beans and even go for a ride on Aladdin’s magic carpet! Displaying the skills they have been developing in their PE lessons the children made a marvellous effort, especially for the K1 students who were participating in their first ever Sports Day! Well done.
As always our parents showed up in large and encouraging numbers. In many cases they were as enthusiastic as the children, cheering them on and in some cases having a go.
A big thank you to all the PE/Swimming staff, class teachers, support staff, parents and of courses the stars of the show the students who helped to make the Sports Days such an enjoyable and successful event. A final and well deserved thank you must go to the Year 6 students who helped out so enthusiastically with our KS1 sports morning and acted as great role models.
Our younger athletes have done us proud once again, well done!
