PE - Athletics

This week, Year 5 separated into two groups. One group looked at the importance of staggered starts during races in relays. We also practised baton handovers and perfect starting position on the line. In the other group we look at practising vortex, one of our Sports Day activities. The children really impressed with their accuracy, distance thrown and technique throughout.

We are really looking forward to Sports day on Tuesday to put our hard work into practise.

Isle of Wight Library Service

 Adam from the Isle of Wight library service came in to introduce the summer reading scheme to the children. The children will need to sign up for the scheme:gadgeteers. There are stickers, games and a gift each time you visit. Each child must read 6 books over the summer.  Once the children have visited three times they will be given a certificate and a medal. All the library asks is that the children write a review of one of the books they have read by 17th September. These reviews will be read by the staff at the libraries and put into a prize draw for the children to win book tokens. 😊 If you have any queries, please contact Cowes library on 01983 293341 or visit the Supporters of Cowes Library on Facebook.

WORKSHOP - The Ridiculous Rhyme Show

Image
 Today, UKS2 were treated to a fabulous workshop by Joe and Andy who were CBeebies The Rhyme Rocket. They talked us through all the different jobs involved in filming a TV show. To help, we had our own teams of filming crew, sound crew, hair & make-up, lighting, stage hand, director and producer as well as a team of actors. The rest of the children became the Studio Audience and practiced laughing, gasping, and clapping.  The cast came in and performed a small play (we have some fabulous budding actors at Gurnard!).  There was a great question and answer session too. The children were brilliant and responded with enthusiasm and respect. This was a great opportunity to find out about life in a TV studio and to have something to aspire to.  They then got a small snippet of the Rhyme show first hand.
