Year 3 Residential to Peckwood

Last week, 28 children went on the first ever Year 3 Residential to Peck Wood in Alvechurch.

 

When we arrived all the children were assigned jobs to do. We had cooks, kitchen porters, waiters and cleaners.

 

On the first afternoon, we went for a walk into Alvechurch where we took part in a town trail.

We worked so hard we deserved a treat once we had finished.

 The weather was so great we decided to cool down with a water fight when we got back to Peck Wood.

 

 Mrs Grimes ended up soaked.

In the evening we had a camp fire and toasted marshmallows. Then we all joined in with some camp fire songs. 

The next day we took part in a range of team building activities, such as parachute games, den building and walking on skis.

We had an amazing time and can't wait to go again next year!

During Walk to School Week, we held a Road Safety Poster competition.

We had to think about how to be safe as we walk to school.

Here are the children and their winning designs.

 

 

Year 6 trip to the AEGON Tennis Tournament

 

 

On Thursday 13^th June 2013 we went to AEGON Tennis Tournament at Priory Tennis Courts, Edgbaston. It was really fun! When we first arrived we got to have our face painted, I got a beard and a silly moustache. We then went on to an assault course. We had to have lots of accuracy. Unfortunately it started to rain heavily so the tennis was cancelled. Everyone was disappointed. However when we got three tennis balls and a racket for free, everybody was happy again.

Thank you for the amazing day out.

 On Thursday 13^th June 2013, thirty children from Year 6 set off to Tennis. All of us were excited and wondered who we would see. Someone said Andy Murray, but unfortunately it was the ladies tennis tournament.

When we arrived everyone jumped up and down and was all excited. When we entered the place we all got our face painted, I had ‘Bad Boy’ on my face. After that we had our photo taken with a gigantic tennis racket. We then ate lunch but suddenly it started to rain very heavily and we all got wet. I liked getting wet but wondered what my mum would say if she saw me soaking wet. I really liked the part when we got to play tennis.

Unfortunately the tennis matches were cancelled due to the rain, so that upset us. However, we did get a tennis racket and three tennis balls for free. This was once in a life time trip and I enjoyed it a lot.
