Sports Day

Wow...What a day of fun, excitment and sport!

Both the Kindergarten and Primary children joined together today for Sports Day. The children worked in teams to compete against each other in lots of fun activities.

The children had to:

Take penalty kicks...

Flick the ball out of the parachute...

Keep up a balloon with a racquet...

Jump on a trampoline...

As well as: throw wet sponges; practice their catching skills; search for cards...

...and have a well deserved rest!

After a break the children took part in some fun relay races...and even the teachers joined in for the potato and spoon race.

We had a special assembly where the winners received certificates for their great performances.

In the afternoon the children got into the spirit of the World Cup by playing some football...

And finally, we had a cool down back at school!

Kings and Queens for a day!

Recently the Grade 1&2 children visited the castle in Rapperswil. We had spent lots of time learning about castles in school but it was fantastic to have a guide to take us around a real one!



As part of our topic we even got to build our own castles! Have a look.
