Sports Day

 

What a fantastic two afternoons our school had last Thursday and Friday on the field for our annual Sports Days. How lucky we were with the weather too, after a brief scare on Friday morning. The Key Stage 2 children were able to compete with great skill and determination in field events ranging from shotput to javelin and track events including the hurdles and 400m while the Key Stage 1 children did brilliantly in all three of their events, including a very challenging obstacle course. Our Early Years children
also had a brilliant Sports Day, showing off some seriously impressive ‘welly wanging’ skills. All the children, across the school, tried their hardest and there were some outstanding performances from all age groups. It was lovely to see the children being competitive and determined but also showing great encouragement and sportsmanship towards each other throughout the afternoons. Thank you so much to the PTA for
providing refreshments and for all the parents who came to support the children at theevent. It was fantastic to see so many parents supporting the children in all the different activities and we even had some very competitive parent races! Congratulations to Oak House on winning the Sports Day Cup but congratulations to allthe children in all Houses for participating in, what was I hope, a very enjoyable afternoon which showcased what fantastic staff, parents and most importantly
children we have here at Lickey Hills.
