On Wednesday 17 th October our pupils from years 3 and 4 took part in this event. Each class had their own inter house competition and all the results were added up to give an overall score. Altogether there were 30 different matches and 148 pupils taking part.
We used the quick sticks school Games Competition model and each game was split into 3 thirds. Teams of four a side and swap over every third. Most teams had between 6 and 8 players so this worked really well.

Whole School Race For Life 2018
Wow, what an amazing day and incredibly achievement, over 500 pupils running, jogging and walking a mile for a fantastic cause and charity. Everyone received a medal 🥇 after crossing the finishing line and the whole day was absolutely amazing. Staff and children were brilliant and all loved the vibe that was buzzing around School. We managed to raise £1,780 for Cancer Research and I believe money is still coming in.

Earth to Space whole school challenge
Tuesday 27th February 2018
Today we held our first Intra school event of the year. The British Triathlon Trust came to our school for the day and they brought with them 40 static bikes 🚴 Some amazing staff and they created a short running track too. 🏃
Each year group competed against each other. They all had 45 minute slots and within those slots they had to travel around 3 sections. Cycling, running and resting. Each station lasted 2 minutes and they kept changing and moving round for the full 45 minutes. Everyone took part and even the teachers had their own station of bikes.
The bikes had special devices on them that counted how many km had been accumulated per year group. The running was also being counted and at the end of each year groups session both the running and cycling were added together to see what their total was.
At the end of the day we added all the totals and found out that we had travelled to space 🚀 and back again.An amazing effort by everyone. Over 400 pupils took part and the whole day was an amazing success. Just goes to show that #Teamworkmakesthedreamwork
