A new year of sport...

September 9, 2022 Natalie Gregan

Sport is a huge part of Our Ladys. Not only taking part in the physical aspect of it but the lessons that we learn alongside it. Next week we will be relaunching football and netball training for our Year 5 and 6 children, alongside dance. Fixtures will be agreed by the primary schools next week, once this has happened, I will produce a full timetable of extra-curricular opportunities for this half term.

Once your child has signed up, there will be a code of conduct for them to sign so that everyone is on the same page with expectations moving forward. Forms to sign up are on the Year 5 & 6 class pages, but can also be found here too.

For the children in the younger years, do not worry. Over the year you will have clubs that are run just for you too! Keep an eye on the website.

How time flies, when you're having fun!

The sun has shone, the air warm and all through the week, the glorious sound of laughter has rung out across the playground.

For a child, it is in the simplicity of play that the complexity of life is sorted, like puzzle pieces joined together to make sense of the world. L.R. Knost

What a wonderful bunch of intrepid explorers we have had out on the playground! Alongside navigating the changeable weather, they have explored new games, created adventures and grown the bonds of friendship. Every small gesture, from a kind smile to an invite to join a game, the children have shown such generosity with their love and kindness.

It never ceases to amaze the lunchtime staff as to the endless imaginative play that the children so whole heartedly through themselves into their games. Lunchtimes, are truly a time where the children can just be.
