Year 5 had an excellent time participating in the Bearpee challenge for Children in Need. Miss Mead even showed the children how it was done… the children definitely scored higher!

This week, Year 5 have been taking part in the Bikeability course! The children have been working extremely hard to improve their cycling skills… the confidence of the children has sky rocketed: they are doing fabulously!
Here are some images of the children being super independent.
Year 3 were introduced to the game of Netball today in P.E with the focus on the passing and receiving of the ball so as maintain possession.
After practising the passing and receiving of the ball utilising the chest-pass, we moved on to working as a team with the aim of creating and using the space around us effectively. Once we had developed our chest pass, we moved into a 5v1 game whereby the attackers had to create the space to pass the ball effectively before being intercepted by the defender.
Great TEAMWORK and ball skills YEAR 3!
This afternoon during our P.E time, the children decided to make some superb assault courses and practice going over, under and balancing! A great opportunity for putting into practice our positional language! The children worked together as a team to create their own course and helped each other along the way!
The children also loved using the balancing boards from our P.E trolley, coits, bats, hoop and net!
Team work makes the dream work…
In P.E so far this term, Year 3 have been Gymnasts performing a sequence of 3 moves with a partner which includes symmetrical and asymmetrical balances using different apparatus. In order to perfect the flow of our sequences, we have practised and performed for our peers so that our audience could give constructive feedback. After taking our feedback on board, our sequences have been much improved and flow with ease and flair.
Great TEAMWORK Year 3!
The F1 children are having fun getting active today for our Move it Monday.
Tonight, our sporting year got underway with the Hull Active School’s Girls 7s Qualifiers. Attending the competitions were teams from Eastfield Primary, Kingswood Parks and Francis Askew. We had two teams attend, many of whom were making their footballing debuts for the school.
In the end, the results didn’t go our way and our teams finished 5th and 4th, so did not qualify for the finals. However, they improved their performance every game and played with smiles on their faces. A huge well done girls, we’re really proud of your efforts!

Our new Foundation Stage 2 children have loved getting outside and enjoyed exploring our fabulous outdoor area this week.
Outdoor play has so many developmental benefits. It helps our children to develop self-confidence, independence and self-esteem.
They also become aware of limits, boundaries and challenge in their play.
Our children get the opportunity to develop their social skills by listening, paying attention and sharing play experiences – this helps them explore their feelings and develop self-discipline.
Outdoor is a great time for their physical development too… our climbing wall proved a great challenge, it got us problem solving and using our gross motor skills, working out how to pull and push and where to place our hands and feet can be tricky at times! It also showed how determined our children are, as they tried and tried again until they got to the top, never giving up, well done everyone!
Over the course of two weeks, our 4 Year-Four HUB children visited Beverley Road Swimming Baths every afternoon. We loved visiting this beautiful building with its mosaic floors and unique viewing gallery. Every day, we made great progress and grew in confidence in the water. We learned a variety of swimming techniques and practiced safe rescue. A great fortnight with lots of resilience and perseverance and we are REALLY PROUD of you all!
We even spotted a decimal number on the pool wall, “Look Miss, just like what have been learning about in Maths!” 🙂
This half of the summer term, Y3 are working with Tigers Trust and are learning how to play tag rugby.
We discussed the rules and then practiced how to score a try ensuring both hands are on the ball and the ball is put on the floor not just dropped. We then looked at how to carry out a basic pass and practiced this!
