For Sports Day 2021, each year group stayed in school to complete their events on their own set day. To make it more competitive, we introduced a housing system whereby each class teacher put their class into four different houses.

Each colour was allocated an ocean for a house name followed by a famous explorer.

Red – Indian Ocean – Gertrude Bell
Blue – Pacific Ocean – Amy Johnson
Green – Antarctic Ocean – Ernest Shackleton
Yellow – Atlantic Ocean – Sir Ranulph Fiennes

On their chosen day, teachers from each year group took their classes to one of the seven events in the playground on a carousel which included:
50m sprint, javelin, target throw, egg & spoon race, nuts & squirrels, standing long jump and the infamous relay race.
Luckily we had the weather to match and much fun was had by all!
