On Saturday, we took part in the year 3,4 Strictly event at The Deco Theatre in Northampton. The children had to learn and perform a waltz and a jive. The jive is really fast and incredibly challenging for such young novice dancers. All their hard work certainly paid off and the children finished in 3rd place, bringing back bronze medals and another lovely shiny glitter ball trophy for the cabinet! Best of all, the dancers were so enthusiastic and supportive of each other and they had great fun. We look forward to the finals on June 26th at the Derngate when both our year 3,4 and our year 5,6 teams will compete.
On Tuesday March 15th, some of our year 4 and 5 children took part in a dodge ball tournament at Moulton Secondary School. The event was great fun and the children played brilliantly, showing some excellent team work and great tactical skills. There were 9 teams in the tournament in total. One of our teams finished in 4th place and the other finished 7th. Well done to everyone who took part.
On Tuesday March 8th, 8 of our year 5 and 6 pupils travelled in the school mini bus to Daventry Leisure Centre to take part in a swimming gala. Each swimmer took part in an individual race and two relays. It was such an exciting afternoon which involved lots of swimming and lots of loud cheering! The children did really well and represented the school brilliantly. A special mention to Leo who won his 25m butterfly heat, Tom who won his 25m freestyle heat and Ini who finished 2nd in her 25m breaststroke heat. The whole team supported each other so well and their sportsmanship was actually commented on by another school. Well done to all of them for demonstrating those sporting values so brilliantly.
Following their success in the district competition, our year 3 and 4 gymnasts travelled to Matrix Gym Club on Tuesday March 1st to take part in the County Finals. They all worked so hard and performed their body management and floor routines and their vaults beautifully. They came home as bronze medallists after finishing 3rd in the County competition which is such an amazing achievement.
