On Friday 20^th May, we were delighted to welcome Dave Moorcroft in to Moat House to officially open the stairwell up to the Year 6 classrooms, where a unique Coventry timeline has recently been installed. It was a particularly special event, as it was our first whole school assembly, since the Covid pandemic began and so it was wonderful to see the children from Year 1 to Year 6 altogether again. Dave Moorcroft, who was the world record holder for the 5000 metres from 1982 – 1985, gave us all a fascinating insight into the build up to his amazing athletic achievement and inspired the children with his encouraging words to try your best in all that you do. It was wonderful to meet Dave as he is the namesake for one of our house teams and we hope that he will visit us again soon.
