Fit 4 Life Sessions

Over the past few weeks, Fit 4 Life have joined year 4 every Monday afternoon to share information about hoke to stay fit and healthy. The children have enjoyed learning lots of new games to play outside, as well as learning about the foods we eat and how to read the labels. During the last sessions, the children tasted different foods and created their own healthy snack.  Next Monday we will be giving s presentation to any adults who can come and support us - Monday 22nd June at 2:30pm!

Conwy - low ropes

All of the children took part in the low ropes class. Everyone helped each other and ended by seining across the big rope swing into the cargo net. Even Mr Bullen had a go!! High ropes next...




Conwy - A big thank you!!

All of year 3 and 4 want to say a big thank you to all the staff who came and helped on their residential. Thank you to the Conwy Centre staff for teaching us and keeping us safe. Thank you to Mrs Webb, Mr Grinyer, Mrs Taylor, Mrs Bond and Miss Barlow for all your hard work and super effort. The children had a great time and enjoyed themselves. 

Conwy - High ropes!

IWow!! They were high!!  Again, ALL the children made a supe effort and made it up to the start of the high ropes. Most children went across the lower beam (still about 4 metres from the floor) and nearly half the group went to the higher beam (approx 15 metres high!). The photos below show a child walking across the beam - bare in mind the top of the ladder on the left is 3 metres off the floor!!  The children climbed the ladder and then up the rungs on the tree!!  Well done everyone...







Conwy - Time for the high ropes!!

Year 4 are now kitting up with harnesses to go and use the high ropes. Everyone is looking forward to trying some new equipment. 




Conwy Residential - Day 3

After a good nights sleep and a hearty breakfast, year 4 headed out to the low ropes and high ropes. The challenge for the children was to move AS A TEAM around the course! All the children completed the course and again, worked well as a group.

Conwy Residential - Day 2

After a brilliant time abseiling, the children had some lunch and set up camp. We undertook some bushcraft activities and lit a campfire. The children also practiced using a strike and rod to create some small sparks. To round the session off we are some toasted marshmallows round the campfire.




Conwy Residential - Day 2

Wow!! What a super day. The sun shone and everyone had a great time!  Year 4 worked really hard and enjoyed a canoe down the Menai. They worked so hard and worked so well as a team that they managed to get an abseil in during lunch!  ALL of the year 4 children walked to the top of the tower and ALL of the children abseiled down!!  Well done to everyone!! More pics to follow...

Conwy Residential - Day 1

Later in the evening, Year 3 & 4 took part in the Nightline. They worked well as a team and helped each other through an obstacle course whilst being blindfolded!! They gave instructions to each other and got a little muddy!! Well done to all who competed it!!


Conwy Residential Day 1

Year 4 arrived safely at The Conwy Centre. After an induction we headed out to the forest for some zip wire and low ropes fun. All the children did really well and enjoyed going down the high zip wire. 


After pretending to be Tarzan, the children worked well as a team to overcome some tricky obstacles on the low ropes. Dinner then the nightline next...
