Out of School Activities and Competitions

Sports4All Festival

On Thursday 5th March nine children attended the Sports4All festival at Robert Sutton. The children were split into two teams and each team had to play 4 different games, these were boccia, new age kurling, goalball and volleyball. Both teams played exceptionally well, with a good attitude. Team 2 ended up in the semi-finals against Fountains School.  They did not win, but came 3rd overall.

Canoeing Festival

On Tuesday 3^rd March, eight Year 5 pupils took part in an Indoor Canoeing Festival at Robert Sutton School. First, the girls competed. They had to row for a set time and their distance was measured to find out who had rowed the furthest. Then the boys competed and had the same task too. Both the boys and the girls did really well and managed to row long distances. For the last activity, each team of rowers had to row 1,750m! Every team member had to row and each team member could only row once. The children tried really hard, worked really well as a team and showed great determination. Even though we didn’t win, we had a fantastic time and we really enjoyed the event.
