Year 1 Our Jubilee Pledge

We have been talking about our Jubilee Pledge in Year 1. We have decided that we will be thinking carefully about the difference between wants and needs.

Do we really need another toy? Do we really need more clothes? Do we really want more sweets? 

The children have enjoyed doing gymnastics in PE this week. We have been very lucky to have coaches from Beth Tweedle teaching the children various skills. They have been learning to use the springboard, different types of rolls and balancing on the benches. Well done Year 1! 

Year 1 have enjoyed playing invasion games this afternoon. In pairs they had to pass the ball to each other through the gate. 

KS1 End of topic assembly Desert to Garden.

The children in Lego and k’nex club are becoming more creative each week.  We’ve had so many different designs and the children have been working brilliantly together.  Today some of the children chose to make marble runs using the Lego baseboards.  

The children explored a series of movements, using their breath along side. They were encouraged to think about how the movements made them feel. They ended with a calm rainforest relaxation period.

Year 2 enjoyed their first session of Mindful Movement with James from Active Sefton. It was very calm and relaxing.

Year 1 Yoga

Year 1 enjoyed a wonderful yoga session this morning. They listened carefully to the instructions and the music whilst making the different positions. 

The children used a range of equipment to practise controlling during a shooting action.
