Some of our Year 6 children visited Boldon Comprehensive School to take part in a Rounders Festival. Although we did not achieve any medals, they had great fun and represented us brilliantly, showing super skill and demonstrating excellent behaviour and sportsmanship.
Our children enjoyed an inspirational sports visit from Ben Holden, who led each class in an ‘Around the World in Sporty Ways’ workshop. Children got to experience sports such as, Gaelic Football, American Football and Kabaddi. We also enjoyed an inspirational assembly where Ben shared important messages about resilience.
Our annual Sponsor Event took place a couple of weeks ago and we were delighted to welcome Paralympian Anna Nicholson into our school to guide our children through their sponsored circuit.
Anna Nicholson reached her first Paralympic podium at Paris 2024 with a brilliant bronze medal in the F35 shot put. There are few people who can say they have competed for Great Britain and Northern Ireland on the international stage, graduated with a Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering, and enjoy a career in the car production industry by the age of 25, but that’s exactly what Anna Nicholson has achieved.
We all had an amazing, albeit very tiring, afternoon and were fascinated to learn more about Anna’s life and career in the inspirational assembly that followed.
Thank you to all of our parents and carers for your very generous sponsors and to all of our wonderful children who worked so hard throughout the afternoon.
