This week we have very busy and active in Antonia’s class as it has been Sports Week. The children have been taking part in lots of lovely sports activities they wouldn’t usually take part in like boxing, gymnastics, crazy golf, multi-skills and karate. They have thoroughly enjoyed the week and feel much healthier and fitter for it!

Crazy golf was in our school hall and the children went down with Shirley’s Class to play. They worked on their gross motor skills and found it really fun to take part in. It was challenging to get the ball in the hole on some of the holes but they persevered and were really determined to win! The children also enjoyed a lovely multi-skills event run by the girls from Westgate College. This was the first time in ages that they have visited our school to get involved in an event due to covid. They were amazing with our children and ran a very fun and successful event of relay races, javelin throwing and other fun games. Boxing and Karate was one of the highlights of the week with Chris. We didn’t know our children were so motivated to learn to fight! They really did enjoy these sports and got so much out of it! They were very sweaty after and it was a real workout.

On Tuesday this week we went to Adventurelands in Heaton as a very special end of year treat. We all had such a fun time and really enjoyed being out together as a class. We didn’t get out much over covid times so it was lovely to be able to spend some time together out of the classroom as a class group.

This morning we attended a very special assembly to say thanks to Rob Armstrong for raising over £230,000 towards our new hyrdotherapy pool!

Have a lovely weekend.
