Year 4 were lucky enough to train with three netballers from Stratford Grammar School this week. Children practised their shooting skills, catching and throwing using the different passes in netball. The children also worked on their communication skills whilst playing team-building games such as capture the flag and a version of bench ball.
Many thanks to the girls at Stratford Grammar School for providing such a wonderful session for our children.
P.S. If the laughing/cheering/clapping/shouting that was coming from the hall is a reflection of how well this event went, I can confirm that the children had a fantastic time and it was lovely to hear!
Don't forget that Friends have organised a clothes and shoe collection with Bag2School on Tuesday 23rd April. Get digging in those wardrobes and help raise some extra funds for our lovely school!
Please donate unwanted textiles in the bag provided – this can include adults’ and children’s clothes, shoes (tied together please), hats, belts, handbags and soft toys, (please refer to https://bag2school.com for full details). In addition to raising extra funds, it will also raise awareness amongst the children of the benefits of recycling and reuse.
If you fill the donation bag and still have more then you can use any other bag to donate your items and don’t forget to ask grandparents, friends and neighbours to have a sort out as well!
Please bring your bag (or bags!) to the main playground by 9am on Tuesday 23rd April and help us have a really good collection.
REMEMBER: THE HEAVIER THE BETTER!
Many thanks indeed for helping us with this unique fundraising opportunity!
