Wow! What a surprise!
We had a surprise visitor in school on Thursday who was truly larger than life! Paul 'Tiny' Sturgess who is a huge 7 feet tall came to our school to show us a basketball masterclass. Paul has played in America for the Harlem Globetrotters and is now working all over the world. We had a brilliant day and learnt some new tricks!

Having a go at Judo!
On Wednesday we had a workshop session with Steve from Skegby Judo Club. We learnt about the discipline needed to participate in this sport and how to perform some holds and throws. We had great fun and lots of us were excited to take part in more after school clubs in September.
Judo in Action!
Our annual football rounders tournament
On Wednesday afternoon all of Key Stage one took part in a rounders competition. We split into 8 mixed teams and competed against each other to score as many rounders as they could. The children showed great team work skills, working together to stop their opponent scoring as many rounders.
Learning about healthy choices
During sports week, each class had a workshop about eating and staying healthy. We took part in activities to help us understand how to eat a healthy diet and the effects of different foods on our body. We also learnt that we need to exercise for an hour a day! We enjoyed taking part in some fun activities in the sunshine too.
Dancing to the Greatest Showman!
During sports week we took part in a dance workshop with Cara. We learnt a dance routine to 'This Is Me' and had a wonderful time performing with the whole school at the end of the day. They performed amazingly well, after just a half hour session to learn the dance.
Watch us dance!
