SHAPE PARTERNSHIP
Each class today took part in different activities related to the Common Wealth Games. Liam from our SHAPE Partnership led each session. The children thoroughly enjoyed learning all the different skills.
SHAPE PARTNERSHIP- Tuesday 5th April
Today all the children have been taking part in activities related to the game show 'The Cube'. They have been focusing on the skill of resilience and learning how to persevere.
♦ Year 3 Health and Wellbeing Lessons ♦
Last term our Year 3s took part in a Health and Wellbeing programme run by SHAPE partnership. They learnt about the importance of healthy eating, keeping fit and how important it is to look after your wellbeing.
Here is some of the feedback from the children.
"I've enjoyed getting outside a bit more. I've learnt about my body a lot- we breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide"
"I've enjoyed Liam teaching us about what can help our body. Keep your mind healthy and have a healthy diet"
"We've been learning about our diet and exercise, how many grams of sugar we should have a day"
"I enjoyed playing 'cross the river'"
"I think the sessions were fun and I enjoyed talking about exercise and the games that we played"
"I know that blood carried oxygen and we should eat a rainbow diet with different coloured foods"
"I've learnt about a healthy diet and how much exercise you should have every day. I learnt about team work and trusting each other"
"I've learnt that my mind can control my body and I need to keep it healthy"
♦ Whole School Dance Days ♦
This week we have had the company Articulate Dance deliver workshops to every year group. Each dance was related to their class topics, the children have loved dancing in the sun shine!

We Won!
On Friday 27th September we took part in Stand Up for Derbyshire. The aim of the day was to be as active as possible throughout the day and take part in lots of active learning. In the morning the school took part in a wake and shake in the hall. People from SHAPE Partnership visited all the Chesterfield and North East Derbyshire schools throughout the day and because they were so impressed with our whole school wake and shake they announced us the winners of Stand Up for Derbyshire! We have received a prize box filled with loads of TTS equipment! The children were very excited to receive our prize! We want to thank SHAPE Partnership for letting us get involved in such a great day!
Go Ride Competition
WE WON! On Tuesday 8th October six of our Year 6 pupils took part in a Go Ride competition at Netherthorpe School. The competition was designed to develop the rider’s skills, knowledge and experience of competition preparing them for a Go-Ride Circuit Relay race. All the children worked great as a team and really showed values of courage and resilience. The children were so happy to hear they came first! They will now go on to represent North East Derbyshire and compete in the county finals in the summer term. Well done to all the Year 6’s that took part!
Netball World Cup
On Friday 12th July, four children from Year 5 had the amazing opportunity to go to Liverpool to watch the Netball World Cup 2019. They bought a Netball from the souvenir shop and were lucky enough to ask some of the players to sign their ball. The children enjoyed the day so much and we thank NEDSSP for giving us the opportunity to go. It was a truly memorable experience!
