Cross Country Club launches in style!

Screen Shot 2016-10-31 at 19.32.27

Well done to the 15 pupils that attended today’s Cross Country Club ‘taster session’ in the late October sunshine!

After a quick chat and a warm up, the team got to work on trying to meet their target of running at least a mile during the allotted timeframe (25-30 minutes). The above running app screenshot demonstrates the minimum distance covered by all club participants, with each of the attendees running at least five laps of the 0.4 mile course. Some then challenged themselves further and covered as many as ten laps!

It was a pleasure to see such resilient runners who kept focused on achieving their goals, even when they started to find things tough. Great fun was had by all! 🙂

A special thank you to our special guest runner, Mrs Carpenter, who joined us for the session and has committed to the remaining sessions too. If there are any parent volunteers who are keen runners and would like to become involved, do not hesitate to contact me as we’re keen to get as many helpers involved as possible.

To all club members, please remember your drink, shoes you don’t mind getting muddy and a towel for next week’s session as we’ll be running whatever the weather.

Looking forward to it already.

Mr. G.

 

Good morning, Maple Class…

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, involves the building of the tallest tower possible…

You may select any 6 team members, but it is essential that you collaborate, take turns and listen to each other’s ideas…

You have five minutes to recruit your team together to receive your full assignment.

Be advised of the two rules:

  1. Your tower must stand up by itself.

  2. You must ensure it survives the ‘blow’ test.

This message will self-destruct in precisely five seconds…

As part of their class reward, the children from Monkey Puzzle asked to spend time baking. With the amazing support of Mrs Hurt aka ‘superwoman’ and Mrs McGrane, all 30 children baked a variety of cakes and sweet treats. These included: Rock buns, Easter biscuits, jam tarts, flapjack, buns and chocolate Easter nests! Not only did they bake all of these amazing this, but they also did the washing up!

Well done to everybody of Monkey Puzzle for working well as a team and supporting one another.

With plenty of resilience and determination, the children of Monkey Puzzle class have been getting comfortable, confident and safer in the saddle when riding their bikes.  Beginning with basic handling skills on the playground, to trips out on real roads, with real traffic! The children have shown great maturity and skill in being able to navigate and ride safely on the roads.  The weather has been incredibly cold, it’s been damp and wet, yet the children have been so energised and enthusiastic; buzzing in fact by what they have accomplished.  Every child that has taken part this far has  achieved both level 1 and 2 qualifications and have gained a skill for life that they will never forget.

With more children to take part next week, let’s hope the weather is a bit warmer for them!

Apple and Palm class spent a beautiful sunny day on Charmouth beach.

With plenty of resilience and resourcefulness, we managed to find some amazing fossils! 

From ammonites to belemnites, we found them! Some of us were even lucky enough to discover gold… fool’s gold that is! 

We had a brilliant day learning all about the Jurassic coast and how fossils help us to understand more about dinosaurs! A T-rexiffic thank you to all of our lovely parent helpers who joined us for the day.
