 Healthy
Schools Week started with a 'Safety Talk' from the Fire Brigade
all about Bonfire Night and personal safety. The School
Nurse talked to the children about personal hygiene and brought
a fantastic machine in
 school
which shows all of the germs under ultra violet light.
Freddy Fit came in and did lots of workouts with the children
and we had a competition which encouraged the children to walk
to school.
 We
invited parents into school to help the children make fruit
kebabs and take part in healthy eating. A theatre group
came in and performed a show all about being healthy. The
children all took part and enjoyed themselves so much.
Being healthy is fun! Mrs Blades and Miss Neild organised
an eight mile bike ride to raise money for charity.
Parents/carers, children and staff all took part. |

To celebrate 'Sports Day' at The
Willows we dedicated our day to the Beijing Olympics. We
had 14 stations and 14 teams taking part in 14 events.
Each station represented a country. The countries were
Greece, Jamaica, Germany, Spain, Britain, Australia, India,
Poland, America, Italy, China, France, Mexico and Africa.

By integrating work on sports day into the classroom children can fulfil other requirements of the curriculum and P.E. can be linked to lots of fun things. Children can look at the Olympic games or the World Cup or even the teams in the Harry Potter movies. The theme of sports day can also be applied to opening and closing ceremonies, news reporting etc. LEARNING P.E. IS SO MUCH FUN AT THE WILLOWS |

parent/carers. Our parent/carers as usual gave us lots of
support and were as enthusiastic as the children.....very
competitive too. 
For
every station we had food tasting for each country. Some
of the food included Jerk Chicken, Tortillas, Prawn Crackers,
Humus and lots more. The children went around each station
and took part in each event. Some of the events included a
bouncy castle, throwing bean bags through hoola hoops, long
jump, egg and spoon race and lots more. After each
activity the children tasted the food and talked about the
countries. The day was a great success.
