Teachers vs Students Netball Match

Today we played the teachers in a game of netball, 
the final score came down to 14-3 to us, 
my partner was our principal Mr Fraser I was playing GA and him GD 
he was very pushy the whole way threw but I enjoyed it so now we have a total 
of 5 trophies altogether including our 2 goaling and 2 championships. 
This was our last game of the season and it came out a cracker one.

Gymnastics 2014



A few weeks ago we started gymnastics at P.E. For a start we laid out some mats and focused on 
forward and backwards rolls as well as handstands and cartwheels. Then Miss Coles put the spring board out and we  did some jumping. It was a bit of a challenge for me at the start but now I have the hang of it.



  • What have you found a challenge? Why? Probably for me the most challenging thing would be the handstands and cartwheels because I just can't get my legs up high enough to balance my self.
  • What have you got better at? How/why? I have got better at my landing skills because I have been practicing my balancing.
  • What are you loving about gymnastics? Why?Probably learning new things and experimenting. As well as experimenting with the string board. By experimenting I can get better at things.
  • What are your next steps? Why? How are you going to achieve them?, To keep on working on new techniques and practice my handstands and forward rolls.

Impact :)

This week we went down to the 
college for the first time in ages 
we started of in the hub where we talked to Mr Davies 
about our treehouse so far. 
Then we went into the computer room and figured out stuff we didn't even know. 
We showed him our drawing of our treehouse and what the walls look like etc and at the start he didn't get it although he did like our brief and thought it was well set out, but after a lot of working out we started putting the pieces together. He still thinks we need to do a lot more working in our books. Next week hopefully we will start building.
