The weather was perfect today and enabled us to hold both Rec/KS1 and KS2 Sports Days. The children loved trying their best to be the fastest and we had huge support from our parents/carers as usual. We know the children will sleep well tonight!
How amazing do our school football team look in their new kits. Thank you so much to the PTA and Education Network (kit sponsor).
The children were over the moon to try them on in anticipation of the next match on Monday.
Year 4 had a great afternoon taking part in the football tournament at Boldon School. Three teams took part and all of the children played to the best of their abilities. Determination, resilience and team work best describe all of the children’s efforts. One team ended the afternoon being awarded medals for winning their league but all of the children were winners to us. Well done Team Westies!
KS2 enjoyed a fabulous afternoon on Monday for sports day. They took part in plenty of team games in their house colours before watching or taking part in the individual races. It was a very close leaderboard, but the overall winner for KS2 was Emerald House – well done Emerald!
Last Thursday a group of year 4 and 5 girls represented our school in a football festival held at Castle View Enterprise Academy. We took part in football coaching drills followed by four matches, in which we won 3 games out of 4! The girls all played fantastic, had lots of fun, practised their football skills and behaved brilliantly. They even came up with a team celebration for each goal they scored!
Some of our year 5/6’s recently attended the South Tyneside Quadkids tournament at Monkton stadium. They were truly amazing! We’ve just got the results back and one if our teams has qualified for the regional finals. Well done everyone!
This week Year 3 attended the Rugby Tournament organised by Boldon School. All 3 teams played incredibly well, showed great skill and sportsmanship, and we had teams place 4th, 2nd and 1st!
Some of our year 3/4 pupils had a great day out on Friday at the South Tyneside Quad kids sports competition. The gave their all at Monkton Stadium and put in some amazing performances but unfortunately it wasn’t our day. Maybe next year!
Year 5 went to Boldon Comp to compete in the annual rugby tournament. They showed fantastic teamwork, resilience and confidence in their matches. We are so proud how they represented the school and themselves. Our teams came 1st and 2nd!
Well done everyone!
The children were treated to a visit from Westoe RFC Coach, John, this week, when he returned to school to present the children with their trophies from his rugby sessions this year.
All children from Years 2-6 took part in rugby as part of their PE lessons this year, and over the year John had been looking for 2 children in each year group who impressed him by working hard, showing resilience, or excelling in the sport.
Here are some photos from our wonderful rugby presentation celebration assembly!
