The day started with a cultural assembly after a beautiful
uplifting song, led by year 3 and miss Millett.
The assembly was about reminding the children about the Olympic and Paralympic
values and how they might use those in the school games .
Then we were ready for the sporting event… The first half of
the school games involved all the children, in small house groups, working
around a carousel of 10 sporting activities, such as ladder relay, goal shoot,
and skipping. The aim of the events was to earn as many points for their house
group as they could. Then it was down to the running track for the second half
of the events of sprinting and relays where we saw some amazing individual and
team running.
Once all the scores had been added up the house that won the
school games was Sapphire. A big well done to all the children who really did
show the Olympic and Paralympic values of respect, excellence, friendship,
determination, courage, equality and inspiration.
