Move Festival at Manchester United

On Monday 10 children from reception were invited to attend the Move festival at old Trafford. All reception children had taken part in multi skills training during the spring term and had lots of fun playing different games to improve their skills. 

It was a great opportunity for our children to demonstrate their sporting ability by playing lots of games along with children from different schools. As well as the multi skills, the children had a tour of the stadium, went into the  players dressing room and even got to try on the players' shirts! Will these children be playing for Man Utd one day in the future?! Watch this space!!

Sports Week!

Sports week at Ladybarn was a great success! The children were challenged to complete 5 hours of physical activity over the week. They had a special booklet to record how much activity they had done. To help them, there were different opportunities, such as a Wake up, Shake up every morning, challenges at playtime and lunchtime (such as score a penalty past Mr Caldwell!) and even physical activity during normal lesson time! 

Sports day was at the end of the week and all the children (and staff!) worked hard to complete traditional events such as three legged race, sack race and egg and spoon race, along with new events such as the howser throw, long jump and obstacle course.  

Well done to all that took part! Special mention has to go to year 1 as every children completed all parts of the sports week challenge!
