Year 2 - Curling Competition
This afternoon, children from year 2 took part in an inter schools curling competition at St Bede’s. This was a new sport for our children and they certainly enjoyed it. We played 9 games against other schools from Blackburn with Darwen with some very close games along the way. We have some excellent curlers in year 2 and importantly they represented our school superbly showing true sportsmanship throughout. We just missed out on the medals in 5th place but the children should be really proud of themselves.
Year 4 - Gymnastics
It was Year 4’s final session of Gymnastics 1 and they put together all of the skills they’ve been learning to create a routine. Within their routines they had to include three balances, two travels, a jump turn and a roll. They worked with determination, setting themselves goals to improve their skills.
