We had a great sports day last Thursday and thanks go to Roundhegians Rugby Club for once again allowing us to use their great facilities.

Have a look at the options for rugby coaching available at the club.

We know the children appreciated it too.

 

 

 

Being healthy themed week: bike safety

Posted on Sunday 16 July 2023 by Mrs Taylor

Thank you to Stu and Alex from Edinburgh Bicycle Cooperative, based in Chapel Allerton, for visiting this during our Being Healthy week.

They were kept busy by checking lots of bikes to ensure they were safe to use. Thank you to everyone who brought their bike into school.

Then, Year 5 and 6 learnt some different bike maintenance tips to do on their own bikes.

Being healthy themed week: staff vs pupils netball

Posted on Wednesday 12 July 2023 by Mrs Taylor

At our final netball after-school club, and as it is our being healthy themed week, we enjoyed a hard fought match between the pupils and staff.
The children have progressed really well with their netball skills this term and we hope the Year 6 netballers continue to enjoy this sport as they move to high school.

Book Club

Posted on Friday 07 July 2023 by Mr Wain

This afternoon, we took advantage of our new green space and lovely weather and took our reading books outside. Some of us read FirstNews, some of us read our library books and the rest of us took atlases out and improved our geography knowledge.

Help at home by giving your child as many opportunities to read as possible!

Junior Warrior 2023!

Posted on Friday 30 June 2023 by Mr Wain

Today, Year 6 attended Junior Warrior 2023 at Bramham Park!

Junior Warrior is a 3KM course full of tricky obstacles and lots and lots of… MUD!

Everybody who attended in our class finished and was awarded a medal for their efforts! Well done, Y6!

Maths Murder Mystery

Posted on Thursday 22 June 2023 by Mr Wain

On Monday, some of Year 6 did something different in Maths: we solved a murder mystery!

The class were given some problem solving clues and had to figure out who the killer was. The clues involved different capacities such as litres and millilitres, grams and kilograms and centimetres.

The final question involved finding the area of biscuits, revealing that the murderer had been Daphne. Well done to the whole class as they figured it out!

Help at home by including your child in cooking and baking so that they are used to different measurements.
