Year 1 Soft Play:  On Thursday 28^th November Year 1 enjoyed a visit to Bermuda Soft Play. This is one of the ‘45 things to do before you leave Moat House’ and now all of Year 1 can tick this one off the list! All of the children had great fun running around, playing indoor football and going down the steep slides. The children enjoyed the coach journey and even practised their songs on the way back to school! 

 

Time to Talk:      Year 6 participated in a workshop called ‘Time to Talk’ on Wednesday 27^th November. This involved learning the skills needed to be good communicators, including listening and sharing ideas without being too forceful. The children then had the opportunity to use these skills to debate whether certain scenarios were safe or unsafe.

 

Year 6 Athletics:  On Wednesday 27^th November, some Year 6 children participated in an athletics competition against other schools from Coventry. The children took part in a range of events, including: relay races, javelin, long jump, triple jump and speed bounce. The children performed fantastically and managed to win lots of the events, including the six lap relay race, which was won with an exceptional performance by Panashe and Munirah! Overall, the children finished in third place! Not only were they amazing at the events, they also demonstrated brilliant sportsmanship throughout the day and were very good at cheering on their team mates. Well done Year 6.

 

Castle Wood Connections:  On Monday 25^th November, representatives from the School Council visited our neighbours, Castle Wood to discuss ideas for working together this academic year. One of our ideas is to jointly raise money for Myton Hospice nurses, who do a wonderful job of looking after people who are very poorly. We will further discuss this with the rest of the School Council and let you know of our future plans.
