Cycling, safety and well-being

What a busy 5 days it has been in KS2 this week.

On Tuesday we were visited by The New Kings Order, a band who recently featured on X-factor. They performed an array of songs before discussing issues such as bullying and online safety with the children.

On Wednesday, in Gascoigne class, we recognised World Mental Health Day and talked at great length about difficulties people have regarding mental health. In literacy we used descriptive language to give each other compliments and consider our own positive qualities.

Today, we ended the week with a visit from Phil, who runs Pro-Ride cycling. He took the majority of Year 4, 5 and 6 children, in small groups, onto the playground to challenge & develop their cycling skills. Although we have done this in previous years, Phil adds something new every time and the children really enjoyed getting to try out ramps, obstacles and races on their bikes. Well done everyone who took part for their great behaviour and positivity.
