Still image for this video
Year 6 went to the John Charles Centre in Leeds to take part in a 'Brownlee Triathlon'.
All the children swam a section of the swimming pool, put t-shirts over their swimming kit and trainers on and immediately started cycling/scooting round a cycle track and then finished with a run to the finish line! Everyone received a medal for their great efforts. We were even lucky enough to meet Alistair Brownlee and have our photo taken with him!
All of Year 6 gave 100% during this challenge. Well done Year 6!

As part of National School Sports Week Year 5 took part in a variety of sports activities.

Autumn Term 2022 - Cross-curricular orienteering - Year 5

Year 5 have enjoyed getting physical during our Muddy Puddle days with our cross-curricular orienteering course.  Children have learnt about life in Ancient Greece by examining artefacts - using images on pottery to learn more about life then.  In Autumn 2, the children got active despite the rainy weather and learnt more about our Science topic - Earth and Space.  They completed multiple choice questions about previous learning on day and night to reinforce their learning.  Every child was involved getting active and continuing their learning!

Each year group have taken part in an additional 30 minutes of exercise for their day which involved running and festive themed exercises such as Snowman Squats and Gingerbread Jumping Jacks. The children enjoyed dancing and we even had a Snowball Fight at the end! Any blurring in the pictures shows just how fast the children were moving!
