Sports Day 2022

The forecast for Sports Day tomorrow is for beautiful sunshine so we would recommend all children are covered in sunscreen, wear a sunhat, and make sure they have a water bottle that can be refilled.

Children should come to school wearing their sports house colour t-shirt.

Families who wish to join us can drop children in school to be registered, then start to head down to Mill Lane after the children have been brought into school. Or parents can join us later in the day.

Previously, families have taken gazebos on to Mill Lane to provide shelter from the heat. If you do wish to bring a gazebos, please check with staff on Mill Lane, the best place to put these up.

The morning consists of competitive races for our children from Nursery to Year 6. Nursery children will have the option to join their families for a picnic lunch at 11.30am or return to Nursery with the staff. All children will start their lunch or picnic dinner with parents, if they are able to join us, at 11.30. If families aren’t able to join us, they will sit with staff and the rest of their class for lunch.

After lunch, our Year 6 will lead the round robin of activities and children from Reception to Year 5 will take part in their Houses to compete for the House trophy. Children can leave with an agreed family member or can return to school once we have finished. If you plan to take your child home with you from Sports Day, before the end of the school day, please find your child’s teacher before you leave, so you can give consent.
