Over the past few weeks Nursery having been practising very hard for our Sports Day. They have learnt how to take part in races, waiting for the adult to say go before they leave and running as fast as they can to be first. They have also practised lots of gross motor skills including running, jumping and balancing. Well done everyone!

At the start of our Sports Day we sat in our lines, patiently waiting for our families to arrive and the races to begin.

Our first race of the day was a running race. We were super speedy as we raced to the cone and back, always remembering to give a high 5 to our friend before sitting down at the back of the line.

Our second race was the egg and spoon race. We tried very hard to balance the egg without it falling off and did amazingly well. Our year 6 helpers did a brilliant job of supporting the children.

The jumping race was great fun and we tried very hard to land on two feet whilst also moving forward.

We finished off with the beanbag race, which was a firm favourite and one which we had practised a lot in our outdoor area in Nursery. Our practicing paid off as many of us managed to keep our heads up and the beanbag balanced. Well done Nursery, you definitely deserved that big cheer at the end of the race!

We are so proud our you Nursery, you did incredibly well at our Sports Day and all showed wonderful perseverance and super sportsmanship, cheering for your friends. It was wonderful to finish out our special day with our families eating ice cream in the sunshine. Thank you to all of the families who attended.
