This morning as part of our ‘board game day’ we played Obstacle Course Tiles and had lots of fun outside in the sunshine moving our bodies!
We worked together and helped each other, demonstrating different movements and exercises!

Year 1 are continuing to become champion dancers.
The children were all excited that our unit this term is super heroes.
After listening to some inspiring music and moving to the rhythm, we then used big movements to strike a superhero pose, all demonstrating great control and balance … look how amazing they are!
This term Year 3 have been doing Yoga in PE and we were very proud of ourselves for remembering lots of poses we learnt in Year 2. Can you spot our tree?
As part of mental health week we talked about how Yoga can help us to clear our minds and help us to relax.
We tried lots of different breathing exercises such as box breathing and shark breaths. We all loved how calm this made us feel.
This term during PE Year 1 have been focussing on becoming champion dancers.
We learnt that champion dancers move with control, listen to the rhythm of the music, use their imagination and move using big, clear actions.
Our focus was growing, and each week we listened to music which inspired us to be flowers growing.
We started off using our bodies to be a tiny seed, slowly growing to the rhythm of the music into a beautiful flower – holding our pose as a balance then using a jump and turn with controlled movements.
Collectively, we made up a motif, which is a sequence of dance movements, to show a seed being planted and the rain and sun helping it to grow.
First, the children worked in pairs, carefully mirroring each other’s movements.
Then, working in groups, we took turns to perform to each other. Each group using moves we had created together, but also improvising with some new ones.
All the children thoroughly enjoyed this, taking great pride in their individual groups motif and showing respect for each others performance… amazing work, you are all champion dancers!
Tonight our Y4s represented the school at a fantastic dodgeball competition. The event was themed around developing sporting values, and instead of finishing positions, children were asked to demonstrate self-belief, teamwork and honesty. All of our children were fantastic and came away with a certificate acknowledging their achievement – well done!
Dodgeball: The CP Chihuahuas, Labradors, Poodles, Pitbulls, Terrier and Bulldogs ready battle!
This afternoon was our first PE session of 2024 and saw Y4 throw themselves – in a control and purposeful way of course – into gymnastics! Our unit ‘bridges’ is about exploring different way we can create gymnastics poses using different points of our bodies on different apparatus. Today we did some group bridges which turned out great! Well done children.
Today we ended the Autumn term with our first ever Santa Run – and what fun it was! Thank you so much to parents who made a fantastic effort to dress up along with children and run the course around our school field. The funds we raised will be put to good use for new outdoor equipment. Merry Christmas!
Tonight our Y56 boys took part in the EFL Kids Cup qualifier event at South Huntley and what a cold night it was! The boys played a round robin against Elloughton, Brough, Airmyn, Anlaby Acre Head and Anlaby Primary. All of the games were very close, with our biggest defeat being 2-0. Overall we finished 4th but ended the night with a great win against Anlaby.
This morning, ten of our Y56s headed down to Hull University for the Hull Active School’s Timed Badminton Championships! The children had a great morning playing against teams from Griffin and Eastfield; we even played against ourselves. All of our children who took part are currently playing badminton outside of school so this was a great chance to use their skills to represent the school in a sport they love.
Some fantastic skills on show from our Y5s
A fantastic result for our Y6 team who finished 3rd!
This term, Year 5 are revisiting and building upon their previously learnt skills in the beautiful game of Football. This week’s lesson saw the children revisiting and demonstrating the skills of dribbling, passing with the aim of maintaining control of the ball.
From this, we went on to play various ‘3v3v3 and 6v3’ games where both attackers and defenders had to draw upon and utilise the skills and knowledge they have acquired from playing football in previous year groups.
Great resilience, determination, teamwork and respect was shown throughout our lesson today…Well done Year 5C!!!
