Spring 1
We are very excited to announce our school young sports leaders programme is now up and running. This programme is for use at break times and allows Year 6 children to run planned activity sessions with all year groups throughout the week.
A group of Year 6 received some fantastic training from Chris Wright Sports Services on how to be a sports leaders and the attitudes and skills they would need to lead others. They worked very hard on this and also created an equipment wish list. School has ordered many of the items from the wish list and met with the young leaders several times to arrange a break time rota and activity programme that can be used for all children in the school. We will continue to meet up to widen and improve this programme.
We are very proud of the children for all their hard work and enthusiasm.
In the summer term the Year 5 children will get the opportunity to train as sports leaders too.

Swimming has restarted for Key Stage 2 and the children are having a fantastic time working towards their swimming targets. The children will be assessed during their swimming course and top-up swimming sessions will be offered to children that have found swimming challenging.

Children will now all have a login for the Fitter Future website.
The aim of the website is to help improve fitness levels of childre. Fitter Future is completely free to use from home and we encourage 1 workout a day. Workouts last just 8 minutes (KS1) or 10 minutes (KS2) and can be completed in even the smallest of spaces with no equipment needed. Every time your child completes a workout their class teacher is notified and has the option to print out a personalised certificate as a record of achievement. There are also monthly 'Fitter Family' challenges that encourage adult participation! Your class teacher will have given your child their username and password. If you are unsure of this please either ask your teacher.
The class that is the most active will receive the Fitter Future trophy in assembly and the child that is the most active at home that week will receive a certificate.
We can't wait to see how you get on with this.
