Sporting Success
Thank you for sharing your out of school sporting successes.
A huge Well done to the U10 Wigton Moor Foxes Manager’s Player of the Year! Fantastic news.
Flex dance!
This morning we’ve all taken part in a Flex dance workshop. Each class is learning a different part of a dance, which were going to perform together this afternoon! We’ve had lots of opportunities to try new activities this week.
Still life art
Children in 5/6 M enjoyed learning about how to cut fruit safely. They learnt the claw and tunnel technique. With adult supervision, children might like to practise this at home.
The claw. Fingers tips are kept away from the edge of the blade.
The tunnel. Hold the fruit at the side and place the knife through the tunnel.
KS2 Sports Day
Well done to all the children who made yesterday’s sports day such a success. The children showed great resilience and support for their class mates.
A huge thank you to parents for cheering on all the children.
Finally, year 6 children deserve our praise for organising and running the event.
Crucial Crew event
Year 6 children enjoyed learning about staying safe at Harrogate College today. There were several infomative workshops:
- Fire safety at home
- The Samaritans
- High voltage electricity
- Staying healthy
- The signs of domestic abuse
- Drug and alcohol awareness
- What to do if you smell gas
Daily Mile Challenge
Children continue to challenge themselves to run 10 laps of the playground as part of their 30 active minutes at school. Children are encouraged to match this with 30 more active minutes at home. Perhaps a game of football or a tennis match.
Superstan!
Our final week of rehearsals are going well. The children know their lines, the choir know the songs, props are in progress and the choreographer has worked really hard on the songs and fight scenes!
Our director, Mr Lindsay, is just putting the finishing touches to the acting. We can’t wait for next weeks performances!
Celebration assembly!
Congratulations to the children whose effort and achievements have stood out this week. It’s been particularly impressive to maintain such focus on their learning in such high temperatures! In addition, we celebrated the Y5, who triumphed in the Brownlee Triathlon hosted by John Smeaton School. Well done everyone!
Year 6 enterprise project
Year 6 have been working hard this week to raise funds for their end of party.
Thank you to parents and children for your support. Pupils had a wonderful time throwing wet sponges at their teachers and poet, Conrad Burdekin.
Conrad Burdekin workshop
Conrad Burdekin, who opened our school library, taught the children a few poems and held a tongue twister competition. Congratulations to Millie for completing this tongue twister in 2.55 seconds.
