Year 6 - Fit for Life!

Thursday, 12 June 2014

As part of their topic, Fit for Life, pupils in Year 6 have been learning about the benefits of exercise as well as improving their personal skills and stamina. With blue skies and summer sunshine, an energetic afternoon was spent participating in a variety of athletic pursuits.  Activities included vortex throw, standing jump, triple jump, bean bag throw and 100m sprint. 

Although the weather was warm, everyone was thoroughly enthusiastic. Competition was rife as the scores were recorded and personal bests were achieved and beaten. The atmosphere was supportive, new skills were learnt and there was much cheering and encouraging. Those children who prove themselves to be the most talented athletes will win a place on our school athletics team to compete at Drapers Intra-School Sports Competition. The team will be announced on Friday morning in celebration assembly.
