With the field marked out into lanes, we decided to practise how fast we could run while also learning the importance of staying in our own lane. The children showed good listening skills, waiting to start until they heard “GO!”. There was some fantastic running and listening throughout the activity. We’ve enjoyed the nice weather over the past few days, burning off some energy.
Have a lovely half term 🙂
Huge congratulations to our year 5 and 6 children who brilliantly represented the school at the recent cricket tournament. They all showed fantastic teamwork and sportsmanship!
A special shout-out goes to our year 5/6 girls’ team for an incredible performance bringing home 2nd place ! We are incredibly proud of you all. Well done!
Thank you to those families that were able to attend our fun, albeit damp and drizzly, Festival of Sports yesterday afternoon. The final sporting afternoon for our Year 6s was filled with obstacle races, sprinting and the obligatory egg and spoon race!
This week, Crew Frost were given another exciting opportunity to take part in a PE session with Legacy. The children showed fantastic enthusiasm and engagement throughout the session as they developed a range of important physical and social skills through team games and ball activities.
The stages of learning were carefully scaffolded to support the children’s understanding and confidence. We first began by practising simple rolling skills, working in teams to roll the ball back and forth to one another. Once the children became more confident, we moved on to practising aiming and throwing the balls at pins to score points for their teams, helping to develop hand-eye coordination, control, and turn-taking skills.
Finally, the children were introduced to bats and learned about the role of a bowler, including fetching the ball after it had been hit. The children absolutely loved this part of the activity and showed great excitement as they explored the different roles within the game. It was wonderful to see many of the children making links to their own past experiences and confidently talking about games and sports they have played before.
Activities like these help to build important skills for Reception, including listening and attention, following instructions, teamwork, coordination, and resilience. We were incredibly proud of the children’s amazing listening skills, positive attitudes, and encouragement towards one another throughout the session. Well done, Crew Frost!
Last week, our Year 3/4 girls’ cricket team took part in a Girls’ Cricket Competition and delivered an outstanding performance throughout. Demonstrating excellent crew work, determination and skill, the team progressed brilliantly and were crowned champions, proudly bringing home the trophy. An incredible achievement – well done to all involved!
In p.e they had did super crew building skills . They had to use hoops to get round the hall without anyone falling out . After that they had a hoop taken away from them which then made it harder. But they smashed it
What an incredible afternoon of dodgeball at Armthorpe Academy! Our Carcroft Crew put in a brilliant performance, battling their way through tough competition to secure an impressive second-place finish.
Facing strong opposition from 10 schools, the team showed determination, teamwork, and resilience throughout the event. After a series of highly competitive matches, Carcroft reached the final, where they finished as proud runners-up to Kirk Smeaton C of E Primary School, who took home the gold medals.
Today in p.e they worked on their balancing skills and going round cones on their scooters
In P.E they were learning skills on how to play cricket.They had to remember that they could not throw the ball under arm and that they had to throw it over arm.
The children in pe blind folded each other and tried to get them round the maze and through the gates .
