Michael Jordan

“I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can’t accept not trying”

We have started our new Learning Means The World theme ‘Zero to Hero’ and one of the first people we have looked at is Michael Jordan. We found out that he was turned away from basketball but because he loved the sport he kept trying and trying until he was successful. We then decided that we needed to be a bit like Michael and keep trying our best. We then went outside and tried to shhot some hoops. We found that we got better the more we practiced. We then found out that Nike thought he was that inspirational that they named some sports shoes after him! We decided to design our own ‘Air Jordan’s’.

We have a jumping great time.

1B are PE Superstars!

26th September 2025Ashley Clark

This week in PE, we have been learning about different ways to run and jump. We played a lovely game called “Here come the sharks!” where the children had to run away from the sharks to avoid being caught. We also did a jumping carousel, where the children practiced how to jump in different ways. They did star jumps, tuck jumps, pencil jumps and loads more! We were exhausted at the end of it!

Running and Jumping!

Today in 1 Red we had our first PE session, we focused on running and jumping and what it entails to run and jump safely and correctly. We practiced lots and showed our moves to our friends and in turn we ere able to say how we could improve to make our movements better. We learnt that exercise and fitness helps us to grow, be strong, get our heart beating and to be healthy.

All of the children loved practicing and preparing for this – taking part in some races and games from their younger years too. Everyone gave it their all and I’m very proud of the class, we haven’t stopped talking about it all week!
