Sports Day Reminder


Don't forget, Sports Day is this Friday (25th June).

The older Key Stage 2 children (Years 3-6) will take part in the morning, starting about 9.30, and the younger children (Reception & Years 1-2) will take part in the afternoon, starting about 1.30).

On Friday, please make sure your child comes to school with PE kit (with trainers for running races), a cap to shade from the sun and a bottle of water (no fizzy drinks or glass bottles). If your child needs sun-cream, please apply this before they come to school – staff cannot be responsible for looking after or applying sun-cream.

This year, sports day will consist of many traditional running races on the track, including sprints, sack races, skipping races, obstacles races and many others. There will be an area for parents, carers and friends to sit near the finish line so you can cheer for your child. Since the day will be very busy, please stay in this area and do not cross or enter the track or child areas. If you bring younger children with you, please make sure they stay with you!

At the end of the day, please do not take your child home from the field. They need to return to class to collect their belongings and receive their annual reports.

If the weather turns to rain, we will postpone the day and hold it in the near future; please keep an eye on this website for further information.
