On Wednesday 17th June, it was our third and final sports day, with our orange, pink and purple pathway classes taking part in a morning full of inclusive physical challenges, activities and opportunities to celebrate being active together.

The event had a real festival atmosphere, with a range of activities available for students to explore and enjoy. These included tabletop and crazy JOLF, boccia, skittles, knock-down tins, hedgehog blasters, ball pool, paddling pools, water shooters, Velcro targets, penalty shootouts, races and a sensory chillout area!  Every activity proved to be a hit with our students, with wheelchair football, bubble-wrap races and the wrecking ball — which   quickly became a very popular swing — definitely stealing the show!

Students showed fantastic enthusiasm, determination and a keenness to explore, taking part for almost an hour and a half alongside their friends, staff, parents and siblings. Their amazing efforts were recognised as every student proudly received a medal to celebrate their participation and achievements.

The students were also earning valuable points for their houses. These were added to the scores from our Primary Sports’ Day earlier in the week, creating a closely fought competition.  In the tightest of finishes, Oak finished top by the narrowest of margins, with Beech in second and Ash in third.

 A huge well done to all of our students for their fantastic efforts across all three sports days, and a massive thank you to all the staff, families and supporters who helped make these events such a success. It has been wonderful to see everyone getting involved, having fun and celebrating sport together!
