I am typing this blog just before our dance presentation is
due to start. The children have enjoyed learning all the traditional dances
this week and I am sure that the display will be a real joy to watch. The two
instructors, Jane and Jeremy, have been really pleased how all the children
have engaged with the activities and having the dance workshops has helped to make
the return to school a real pleasure. The children have also enjoyed all the
art activities they have been carrying out in class and have produced some
really lovely work. If you are at the carnival on Sunday you will be able to
see some of the work at the art exhibition. Some of it is also being used for
our walking float so if you observe the parade you will be able to see it then.
I am also going to be in the walking float so if you see me as I walk past please
do give me a wave.
We have had some more good news this week because our
girls have won the Potters Bar Girls Football Tournament. Two teams took part
and both did very well but when it got to the semi-final stage our ‘A’ and ‘B’
team had to play each other and the ‘ A’ team won. They then had to play
Cuffley in the final and beat them 3-0 to win the tournament. I would like to
congratulate all the girls who took part on their excellent performance and I
would like to thank Mr Mills for coaching the teams so well. The girls football team
is also taking part in a football tournament at the carnival on Sunday. The
event will be taking place at the Elm Court Youth and Community Centre at
approximately 2.30pm.
The next big sporting event that we have to look forward
to is our own sports day which is on June 21st. The foundation and
KS1 children have their event in the morning and the KS2 children have their
event in the afternoon. If we are unable to hold it on that day, the reserve
date is June 22nd.
Next week is another busy one in school. On Monday the
photographer is in school to take team photographs so if your child has
represented the school in any sporting event this year please ensure that they
bring in their team kit on Monday. Year 5 are also doing their cycling
proficiency award in school next week so you will see a lot of extra bikes in
school. Year 2 are also on a school trip to the Environmental Centre in Watford
and I know that they are all looking forward to that.
I hope you all have a great weekend. As I said earlier I
will be at the Potters Bar Carnival on Sunday so I hope to see lots of you there.
