KS2 Cross Country ?

On Wednesday 25th April, we took a whopping team of just under 80 children to the Telford and Wrekin School Sports Partnership’s first KS2 Cross Country event since the COVID pandemic. We were so proud of the levels of perseverance that were displayed by our children throughout a very physically demanding course.

Sports Captain Applications

Just a reminder that Sports Captain application letters for children in Years 3, 4, 5 or 6 need to be handed in to the school office by Friday. The new badges were delivered today ready for our new Sports Captains once they have been selected.

Animation! ??

Our new topic in Computing is Animation.

In today’s lesson, the children enjoyed using the software ‘2Animate’ on Purple Mash to create their own simple animations. They came up with lots of very interesting designs!

 

Chocolate tasting! 🍫💕

As part of our Literacy work on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the children took part in a tasting session where they had to use descriptive language to describe the tastes and textures of a range of chocolate bars. Then, they used these ideas to invent their own chocolate bars! Well done, Year 4! 😀😀😀

Cake Sale!

Key Stage Two Swimming 🏊‍♀️🥽🏊‍♂️

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Every Monday, beginning Monday 24th April and ending 17th July, all Key stage 2 children will go to Oakengates leisure centre for a 30 minute swimming lesson. The children will go to the swimming pool in their year groups and will be split into three different groups, based on their swimming abilities. Each group will be led by at least one member of St George’s staff. The leisure centre life-guards will be on hand as a safety measure.

All children will get changed at the leisure centre so will need an appropriate swimming costume in a separate waterproof bag, towel and goggles if required. All other swimming equipment such as arm bands and floats will be provided at the leisure centre. We suggest packing an extra pair of socks/ tights in case they get wet during the changing procedure.  Can we please encourage children to wear their swimming costumes under their uniform in the morning to make the most of the time available at the swimming pool (don’t forget to pack underwear for after swimming.)  All children will return to school in time for normal lunches.

Kind Regards

PE Team.
