Sports Day

On Friday, we had a fantastic day taking part in lots of  different activities. To begin with we started off at the Micro Fitness, where we got to try lots of new equipment like spin bikes, treadmills, cross trainers and rowing machines. It was great fun but hard work too!

After the Micro Fitness we went to the disco. The music was great and we had a fabulous time dancing with everyone!

Our next activity was the bouncy castle. We all had a fantastic time jumping about!

After break, we visited the potted sports area where we took part in football shootout, hockey dribble, basketball shootout and beanbag throw. We all  tried really hard to earn some points for our house!

After the potted sports, we took part in some football training activities led by a coach from Colts F.C. We all enjoyed learning some new skills!

In the afternoon we took part in orienteering. We worked in a group to find clues and come up with a secret message. We all had great fun trying to find the clues and solve the code! 

Finally, we took part in a scavenger hunt to find a variety of things in the Nature Garden. We enjoyed exploring outside and had fun trying to find a four leaf clover!!

Lidl Health Bus

Primary Four enjoyed a fun filled visit to the Lidl Health Bus. On the bus we learned how to make delicious smoothies using different fruits and had great fun making them!

 In the hall we took part in team races collecting different fruits and placing them in baskets. We also learned about our heart rate and monitored our heart rates during the activity. It was hard work but we all had great fun!

 At the end of the visit we got our very own smoothie cups and a recipe book so we could make our own delicious smoothies at home.
