Today is all about walking. You can get your steps in by playing out in the garden, helping around the house or arranging a a walk with your family. We would love to see some photographs from your walk. You can do this by updating your Glow blog.

A reminder that Sports Day is this Friday! We hope to see you all participating in the activities and joining in on the fitness fun 😀

Health Week

Sports Day

Friday 5th June

On Friday 5th,  we are going to be holding a virtual sports day. Each class will have their own set of races and challenges and we would love for you all to take part. There will be family events, pupil events and of course a staff event. So keep your eyes peeled for that!

I have listed the races and challenges that you will all be involved in down below to give you a chance to organise some of the materials that you might need (and maybe have a cheeky practice – I won’t tell anyone). Your class teacher will provide you with more details of your races, on the individual class pages. The races are slightly different to what you are used to. We have had to think of alternative ways to do the races in our garden. They are much more exciting and we know that you will have such a fun time participating in the races!
