Oh my goodness, my body ached just watching in awe at these young people bending and twisting their bodies.  What a display of flexible young ladies we have.

Six of our climbing/bouldering team made it through to the finals at The Climbing Works, with one of our girls coming 3rd overall.  and the whole team finishing 3rd in the competition.  What a morning we had!.  A really early start at school, and a really long journey, but treated to sausage sandwiches halfway courtesy of Mrs.  Atkinson.  The climbers were all set for a great competition, taking on another 2 schools from our partnership too. All competitors gave it their all, bringing out their inner spider and had a really great morning, with fantastic complimentary comments from their climbing coach, about their determination and attitude to sport, which topped off our morning nicely.

Children from Year 3 and Year 4 took part in a handball competition held at Jump Primary on Friday 28th March, after a nervous journey there, going over the rules and how to play, they got off to a great start in the competition, they finished in second place and returned to school proudly wearing their silver medals.

Some children were selected to take part in Dance Workshop held at Kirk Balk Academy.  They were taught various routines, then put them all together to music.  It was great fun!

This half term we have been revising fruits and vegetables and learning how to ask for them and paying money at the market.  We learned through making a comic strip.  We designed a fruit salad and made a real one – the best part was getting to eat it –  This lesson was a success, all fruit was eaten!
