Celebration of Sport

Following our successful sports days last year, we are planning to hold Reception, Year 1, Year 2 on Tuesday 18th June 2024 and Year 3 & Year 4 on Tuesday 25th June 2024.

Spreading the event over 2 days allows the children more time to enjoy the events as well as giving our Year 4 sports Leaders the opportunity to help organise and lead the events.

We are planning to hold a carousel of field sports events in the morning and our traditional track races in the afternoon. You and your family are welcome to attend both of the events.

The morning will begin at 9.30 with our Year 3 & 4 children displaying their hula hoop and skipping skills followed by all children performing a wake and shake dance. The children will then carousel around 8 different field events. The events are aimed for the children to practise skills learnt throughout the year and to have fun. You are welcome to support your child around the events. There will be a small amount of seating dotted around the area but you are welcome to bring your own seating. The session will end at 11.30 to allow the children to have their lunch.

The afternoon session will begin at 1.30 with an olympic style ceremony followed by our traditional track races. We will corden off an area of the sports field for you to spectate and ask you to bring your own picnic chair/blankets to sit on.

In the event of bad weather we have set aside 2nd July as a reserve date. Details of the day will depend on whether one or both events need to be rearranged. If both need to be rearranged we will hold Year 3& 4 races in the morning and Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 in the afternoon. Let’s hope this is not the case!

More information will be provided closer to the event regarding what the children need to bring and wear.

Kind regards
