UKS2 Netball tournament washout! 🌧🌊

9th November 2022Simon Gerrard

Unfortunately, UKS2 were not able to complete their netball tournament. After 1 and a half games, the heavens opened and soaked us to our bones. The tournament was then cancelled.

Despite this, we were so excited to get playing and give it our very best, in a sport where our experience is limited. Even though we only played for a few moments, we learned quickly how to play effective netball. Finding space, speedy passes and using team work to score a goal.

Sadly, we will have to wait before we can play anymore games in a netball tournament. Check out our photos, including our Mrs Rhodes brolly photo. It wouldn’t be a tournament without us being huddled under the brolly!

Keeping our school community clean

9th November 2022Ruth Shields

A great job by Crew Shields this afternoon as they supported the rest of the crews with keeping our school community clean and safe.

They had a short time outside but managed to fill a couple of bags with rubbish. The most fascinating thing found was some small bones so only naturally they had to have a picture taken with it.

Scotty’s Heroes

9th November 2022Ruth Shields

During Scotty’s heroes today, the children were challenged to complete an assault course while blindfolded. They had to work in pairs so they could guide each other through safely. This required clear and precise instructions not only to get through the course but to keep each other safe. Some great instructions and collaboration. Well done Crew Shields.

Remembrance Crew in MI

Today we thought about and discussed remembrance day. We watched different clips to help us understand what remembrance day is and to generate further discussions. We then worked collaboratively to make a variety of poppy wreaths.
