Last Monday we took part in another fun filled Springfield Week! We welcomed special guests as well as having a fun, sports focus taking part in activities in the classrooms, football skills with Brighton and Hove Albion and an interactive session with Perform drama.
Our Monday guests included internet star Jump Start Jonny, who had all the children and staff up on their feet for an energetic start to the morning. Jonny visited the classrooms and chatted with lots of the children. They all had a fabulous time and were so excited to stop and share stories with him. In our afternoon assembly, we welcomed Olympic and world champion Archer, Bryony Pitman. Bryony explained to the children how she started in archery, how she trains and what she has learnt along the way. She bought in her bow and arrows to show the children and presented lots of photos of her competing.
We took part in our regular Springfield Stride and honed our football skills with Alan from Brighton and Hove Albion who comes in every week to work with the children. Perform Drama joined us on Wednesday for an exciting interactive session. The focus was ‘In Space’ and the children learnt how to put on their space suits, taking off in their space ships and hurtling through space past planets, galaxies and stars.
We finished off the week by ‘Going Wild for Children in Need.’ Children and staff were encouraged to come to school dressed as a wild animal or in animal print clothing. There were some very wild and wonderful outfits, it felt like school had turned into a zoo for the day!
A big thank you to all our guests and everyone who got involved.
