Sporting Opportunities
On Monday 7th November six year 6 children attended a gifted and talented in PE event at Derby University.
The children took part in a variety of activities which included:
- Looking at the sports facilities
- Mental wellbeing in sports discussions
- Psychological wellbeing in sports discussions
- Thinking about attributes that make a good sports person
- Healthy eating and nutrition
- Climbing the climbing wall – well done to Joel who climbed the highest and showed real determination.
All of the children had a great time and have hopefully been inspired about what they can achieve and aim for in their futures.
At the end of the event, all six children were given a fee ticket to go and watch the badminton at the university. This event is going to be filmed by BT Sport.
School Games Mark
We have recently been awarded a Silver Award for the School Games Mark for our commitment to PE and sport during the last academic year. ‘The School Game Mark is a Government led awards scheme that rewards schools for the commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community’. We are very proud to achieve this award and we really enjoy giving the children the opportunities to attend after school clubs, festivals, tournaments, Ambassador meetings and training and Gifted and Talented events (at Derby University).
This award will be put up on display in the reception area.
