Edgewood Sports Week - Monday

Edgewood Sports Week -

The weather held off today and allowed the children to enjoy the sunshine as well as the activities on offer.

Y5/6 enjoyed a day of climbing and slacklining. A lot of children faced their fears on the climbing wall, whether going up or putting their feet over the edge on the way down! Slacklining proved to be really popular, as children were finding interesting ways to gracefully dismount the tightrope! During some downtime, the children even managed to involve Mr Tidd in a competitive game of Nine Square!

Children from Y1/2 and Y3/4 had an introduction into Judo, thanks to Edgewood Judo. They learnt a few moves and how to fall!

Y1/2 were also treated to Ultimate Frisbee, run by Mr Ward. Even in the short sessions, the children learnt a lot and really improved their throwing and catching!

Finally, the sport continued after school. Two teams took on other schools in the district Pop Lacrosse tournament. Both teams played really well and showed off the skills that they have been practising over the previous few weeks. Edgewood Blue ended 3rd in the group and Edgewood Red ended the evening 1st overall - Winning Gold for the school, becoming the district champions and qualifying for the Notts School Games!

A fantastic start to Sports Week! - Football Freestyle tomorrow!
