Netball in 4B

The children in 4B have had a very active morning with a netball coach. They have learnt some new footwork and have been chanting the rhyme '1, 2 STICK LIKE GLUE' to help them to remember the steps. They have also learnt the new word 'pivot' and have been practising how to do it. They all made great progress throughout the lesson. Take a look at some pictures of them in action. #PE #4B #Year4

Rounders in Y6

Friday saw the Yr 6 classes compete in an inter-house rounders tournament. Everyone played two games and we saw some big hitting and fantastic fielding from all the players. This time Yellow house came out on top, but will they be able to keep their crown as the term continues? #Year6 #Sports #PE
