Celebration Assembly 22nd February

It’s been an active week at Ruyton this week! Bikeability, Cross Country AND a Dodgeball Championship!

Firstly, a huge well done to our Year 6s who underwent Bikeability Training from Shropshire Council. This entailed two days of working with instructors to prove their ability to ride their bikes on the road safely including independent decision making around traffic in the village. We are proud that everyone who took part completed their Level 2 Bikeability!

Well done Year 6 🌟

Our KS2 Dodgeball Team then attended the Thomas Adams School in Wem for the North Shropshire Finals of the competition (following their success in Autumn Term).

Incredibly, our team – consisting of Year 4,5 and 6 players – got through to the semi-finals before narrowly losing out!

A massive well done to all the players involved – it is a super achievement for our small school and you represented us fantastically well.

Cross Country @ Corbet

All children in KS2 (Year 3, 4,5, 6) participated in a cross-country event at the Corbet School on Wednesday. Everyone completed the course – many for the first time- and showed super determination to achieve their best. Well done Team Ruyton!

Our team this year are working so hard in matches, with particular courage shown by our five Year 4 boys who are facing players two years older than themselves! But we don’t let this stop us at Ruyton 🙂

Although we didn’t win on the day, a great time was had and staff were impressed by the teamwork and sportsmanship shown. Well done team!
