2 School. Although neither team got into the semi-finals, they played extremely well. Wednesday: The Year 5 Hockey team went to Longridge High School. For some of these children, it was the first time playing hockey. We improved with our skills throughout the competition, and were unfortunate not to make it to the finals. However, we now have some very enthusiastic hockey players. We also had a cross country competition on this day, where six children competed. Thursday: The football team played away at Broughton Primary School. Unfortunately, we came away with a 4-0 defeat. I would like to take this opportunity to thank those parents that have been involved in helping with transport this week. Miss Shepherd circuit training. Tuesday involved the whole school taking part in a mile run around Goosnargh. They all were successful and did extremely well. Finally, on Wednesday each class took part in a fitness video led by the Body Coach - Joe Wicks. We will share the overall total raised after the Easter Holiday. PE KITS There are a great number of children who do not have the correct items in their PE kits. Please ensure missing items are replaced and PE pumps fit correctly. PE is an important part of the curriculum and also is very beneficial for numerous reasons. EASTER BINGO We had an egg-cellent Easter Bingo night on Thursday and raised an eggs-tremely impressive !
