Beanbags were flying, children were running and cones were flipped all to keep the children moving and to earn points for their colour teams. By the end of the morning children were ready for lunch which was enjoyed with friends and families. Thank you to all those who could come and join us. The afternoon saw competitive races for the children. 100m sprint, bouncer hopper race, egg and spoon race and skipping races were enjoyed by all. Well done to those children who took part and showed real perseverance and sportsmanship – a great way to represent your colour team. A huge thank you to Winton and Glenmoor for hosting us and to the amazing Year 9 pupils who assisted us throughout the day.
