Some of year 2 were lucky enough to be invited to take part in an orienteering session at Marine Park. They received a map and had to look for different numbered stations around the park. Each of these stations had a letter, number and a picture. The children had to collect the data from each station to fill in their quiz sheet at the end. The children were all amazing and we have had a brilliant afternoon.
We have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Amy who was from a company called Active Futures. Active Futures run a range of sporting activities around the North East and have been running some of these in our local area. This week the children engaged in an activity called Futsal which is like a smaller scale game of football. Amy showed the children some tricks to do with the football and then played lots of games. The children really enjoyed their sessions and even received a leaflet to take home with all of the information about the activities that Active Futures run. Please feel free to have a look and sign up to the activities!
Reception had a fabulous time experiencing Futsal this week!
Year 2 have really enjoyed taking part in our Futsal session. We tried lots of new tricks like The Ronaldo step over, The Neymar Rocket and the side step pass. It was so much fun!
This half term in PE, we have been practising jumping, running and sprinting with our PE coach.
This half term, we have been learning how to create excellent bridge balances in gymnastics. We have been practising how to form the perfect bridge using our bodies.
Year 4 have shown their flexibility and strength during bridge lessons this week. Well done!
For our final football lesson in PE, we used all the skills we have learnt over the last few weeks and implemented them in some team games.
1 Red had great fun using the large apparatus in PE this week. They used their gross motor skills to help this them travel across, over and under various large apparatus. Whilst finding some elements challenging everyone gave each part a good go and had a wonderful time in the process.
As part of our PE this half term we have been looking at different ways our bodies move during dance. We have imagined ourselves as explorers and we have travelled through different terrains. This week we were imagining we were pirates seeking treasure however, when we found the treasure it was too big to move. Using dance we had to create a movement that would help us transport our treasure. We had so much fun as you can see!
