Thankfully it stayed dry for sports day this week...Parents and children enjoyed a packed line up of races organised by Mrs Campbell. Many thanks to all those who contributed to the raffle. We shall draw the raffle on the day of the fete - don't worry, all your ticket stubs have been safely stored away :-) Thanks too to Mr Bowcott and Tesco for donating the juice, oranges and Freddy Frogs chocolates.
Here are some pictures...

Joe, Libby and Melanie all went to an event in Millburn Academy called The Global Citizenship Conference with Joe’s mum, Mrs Kennard.
There were lots of different workshops and we did five of them but our favourite one was the one about The Red Cross.
What we did was we had lots of tape tied from chair to chair across a small patch of grass and there were fake land mines on the ground in between the tape. At one end there was someone sitting at a table with a water pistol pretending to be a guard. Behind the guard was a chair with a picture of a city on it.
The teacher decided to split us into three teams, the cross, the crescent and the crystals. We went to different groups Melanie and Joe where in crystal. Libby was in crescent.
What we were meant to do was walk across to the other side without walking on top of the land mines but it was quite hard because when someone was going across they had to wear a blindfold.
Luckily though, our team mates were allowed to guide us through by talking to us. If we managed to get as far as the guard then we were allowed to take the blindfold off and let the guard inspect the box we were meant to carry and ask us questions. When we all got past and we answered all the questions right, we gave the box to the people who needed it.
We had a really great day and we’d like to thank everyone who helped organise it. We’d also like to thank Mrs Kennard for taking us.
