Our annual sports week has taken place in the last week of term 5. We were blessed with brilliant weather for the week and the children competed amazingly all the way through. Throughout sports week, the children all competed in house rounders (kick or traditional), field events and sports day athletics. It was the perfect celebration of sport at Warden Hill and leads to the awarding of the house cup.
House Rounders
Each year group competed in house rounders. For the infants, this consisted of kick rounders and for the juniors it took its more traditional form. Each team played in a round robin format playing a match against each other house – resulting in over 30 matches being played in all! The final standings were as follows:
Churn 11.5
Windrush 17.5
Coln 19
Leach 22
House Athletics
Our children competed in the field events, which consisted of 4 different events: standing long jump, shot put, discus and tennis ball throw. Each child was selected for at least 1 event where they competed against seven other members of their class or year group. The results for this were totalled and contributed to the award of the sports day cup.
Our 3 sports days were each a pleasure to be a part of. We want to thank so many parents, wider family and friends who came to watch the children compete in their individual sports day events – all 3 were wonderful occasions. Our infant children were simply superb, each taking part in a sprint race and an obstacle race and accruing points for their houses, while juniors competed in sprints, long distance races and relays.
