What a brilliant week we have had in school! From classrooms full of learning to exciting activities across the week, there has been a real buzz around the school. But the highlight was definitely our much-anticipated Sports Day!
After keeping one eye nervously on the forecast earlier in the week, the weather turned just in time and we were treated to a glorious afternoon of traditional Sports Day fun in the sunshine. The field was filled with excitement, cheering and plenty of competitive spirit as pupils took part in a fantastic range of races and activities.
We are incredibly proud of all of the children for making the afternoon such a success. For some pupils, Sports Day gave them the chance to shine and show off their speed, skill and determination. For others, it was an opportunity to demonstrate amazing resilience, sportsmanship; encouraging friends, picking themselves up after setbacks and giving every event their absolute best. The support the children showed one another throughout the afternoon was wonderful to see.
A huge congratulations goes to Gower, who were crowned the overall winners this year. Well done to our worthy champions!
A very big thank you must also go to Mr Howles for organising such a fantastic event. As always, a huge amount of work goes on behind the scenes to make Sports Day run so smoothly and we are incredibly grateful for all of his hard work and enthusiasm.
We would also like to say a massive thank you to all of the volunteers and helpers who stepped in with an “all hands on deck” approach throughout the day. The help with setting up, clearing away and, of course, manning the hugely popular slip and slide is very much appreciated. Your support helped make the afternoon so enjoyable for everyone.
Thank you too to all of the families and friends who came along to support the children. The cheering from the sidelines, words of encouragement and fantastic atmosphere made the day even more special for our pupils.
We are absolutely delighted to share that the PTA raised an incredible £1259.93 from the event, an amazing total! Thank you so much to everyone who supported the day and contributed so generously.
Well done once again to all of our pupils for such a memorable afternoon. You were all superstars!
Photos will be uploaded to our Instagram account this weekend!
Thank you for all of your support this half term. We hope you have a wonderful half-term holiday in the sunshine. Remember to stay safe in the sun and we will see you back in school on Tuesday 2nd June.
