Hockey Tournament
Two Y5/6 Hockey teams took part in the local area Hockey Tournament on Tuesday at the Corbet School. Following a series of lessons in PE, the twelve children were able to perform their learned skills at a competitive level and develop their hockey knowledge.
Mrs Dyke and Miss Perez had a great morning with both teams. One of the main strengths noticed was the communication between our players. We are delighted that one of the squads finished 3rd too! Well done everybody.
Rock Climber Lucy!
Lucy proudly shared her rock climbing achievements with us this week. She has recently achieved her Level 1 Award which is a brilliant achievement.
Whilst sharing this, we talked about this week being Mental Health Awareness Week with a theme of ‘Let’s Connect’. This theme is designed to teach us the value of meeting and getting to know people better and reaching out to others. We are really proud of Lucy for sharing her interests and talents with us – lots of children were keen to ‘connect’ and share their rock-climbing experiences in return too! This power of sharing connections was really obvious in our assembly hall today and certainly made Lucy feel good about herself. Thank you Lucy – keep it up, our very own Spider Girl!
