We were very fortunate with the weather on Monday morning and were able to hold our first Sports Day out on the school field to help raise money for the British Heart Foundation. The children had lots of fun participating in races such as the 'Bucket and Beanbag', Obstacle' and 'Getting Ready for the Beach'!
Sadly however, the heavy rain at the end of the week meant that we had to cancel the event for our second group of budding athletes and their parents as the conditions out on the field were too dangerous. Staff, children and parents were obviously very disappointed, but it would not have been safe to proceed. We did however, take the children into the hall to enable them to do some mini-races as they had worked so hard to raise their sponsorship. We are delighted with the amount of money that has been raised so far and we will let you know the final total once all the sponsor forms have been returned. We will of course, try and fit in an alternative 'Sports Afternoon' for parents to attend if at all possible before the end of term, weather permitting!
