Indoor kwik cricket tournament

On Wednesday, we took a team to the T&W indoor kwik cricket tournament hosted at Telford Tennis Centre. The team made an amazing start winning all 4 group games, followed by a couple of close victories in both the quarter and semi finals to secure a spot in the final against Sir Alexander Fleming. Whilst we managed to score our highest run total of the whole tournament we unfortunately lost out to a very good team meaning we took silver medals on the day. However, by making it to the final we also qualified for the Shropshire School Games in the summer which is a huge achievement.

Year 5 – Dodgeball Tournament

On Tuesday 27th we took 2 teams of Year 5s to a dodgeball tournament at Telford Tennis Centre. Team 1 narrowly missed out on a spot in the semifinals whilst Team 2 finished in 4th place, again just missing out on bronze medals.  Competing mostly against Year 6 children from other schools they did extremely well to be as competitive as they were.

Year 5 DT Workshop

On Monday, year 5 were very fortunate to be visited by a DT specialist. They were given the opportunity to create a mechanism for a local company called Cedo.

The children made a pulley system using dowel and wheels. They also made a ‘conveyor belt’ out of paper which attached over the dowel and wheels to allow the paper to move an item (cling film rolls made out of straws) from one side of the mechanism to the other side. The children had lots of fun creating their mechanism!

At the end of the workshop, the children showcased their work to each other.

SnapTrap – 2Engage

Today, as part of our PSHE and computing/online safety curriculum, year 5 and 6, as well as their parents and carers, participated in a dynamic interactive theatre workshop called Snap Trap led by 2Engage. Their mission is to raise awareness, challenge perceptions and start conversations regarding online safety. Through captivating storytelling and interactive discussions, they brought to life the real-world experiences of children affected by online bullying, social media misuse, and online grooming.

The children were reminded of the SMART targets and we stressed the importance of keeping themselves safe when online.
