P4S Football
We were learning to dribble with the ball and play games to improve our skills. Then we worked with partners to try to dribble the ball to each other. After that we played a game of cat & mouse. The cat had to run around the circle and get back to its space while the mouse had to try to steal the balls. At the end we had to play a match against each other. We had a great time and it showed us different ways to improve our fitness.
P4S Smoothie Bike
We had a great time making our Smoothies. We talked about how healthy they were to eat. We also used the bike to discuss what we had learned about forces and how they were moving the wheels and then the blade of the blender. Very yummy smoothies!!!

With their amazing fund raising activities earlier in the year and a kind donation from the PSC the children have managed to cover both the cost of their hoodies and their night out…what an amazing achievement! Any parents who would like to stay and help are more than welcome. Children must be picked up by a known adult at the end of the evening. Let’s BOUNCE!!!
