We had a visit from Zoolab who talked to the children about the animals and mini-beasts they had brought and let them hold them (apart from the ones that could have escaped!).  The children listened to a story about the animals that had an anti-bullying message.

On Monday 13^th January 2020 our Year 3 and Year 4 children took part in a Kurling and Boccia Festival organised by Education Enterprise Ltd and held at Wolsingham Sports Hall.

The festival consisted of children from six schools taking part in different games to develop their knowledge and understanding of kurling and boccia by sampling multiple games on different stations.

Our children were split into two teams of 7, a grey team and a turquoise team. The turquoise team came second with one of the highest scores of 1119 Points. They were just beaten to first place by Frosterley Primary. Our grey team came fifth with a respectable 920 points. Everyone enjoyed a well organised and very energetic festival.

As part of the festival programme, the year 3 and 4 children also had a pre-festival coaching session on Friday 10^th January.
