Faster Higher Stronger

This week in Assembly we thought about why the Olympic Motto might be Faster Higher Stronger. Children had great ideas about striving to be better and always working to improve in everything we do. We can all work towards a Personal Best.

Four children helped Olly in assembly. Mabli was time keeper and measured with the stopwatch and a metre stick.

Shujana ran 100 metres around the hall. She ran really fast.

Curtis jumped up high. He jumped about 60 cms, wow!

Honor picked up a tray full of KG weights. She was so strong!

Then we all had to guess the World Records of Usain Bolt, Stefka Kostadinova and Rahman Siamond.

We were all amazed at how fast Usain Bolt ran, how high Stefka Kostadinova could jump and how strong Rahman Siamond was!

Sylvie's Mascot

Sylvie made a mascot at home using recycled materials and sellotape. Her mascot flew into our Tuesday's Assembly this week to visit and now lives on one of the Olympic Displays in the Middle Hall.

The Torch Relay Song

KS1 classes have learnt the Torch Relay Song in Singing Assembly. They have been having their own mini Torch Relay around the hall. Last week Leon and Fidha, from Coral Class, made a special Olympic Torch during Golden Time. So this week the Torch Relay had its own special torch! Here are KS1 all having fun singing the song.

 

Olympic and Paralympic Values

Emerald and Pearl classes are thinking about how they can keep the Olympic and Paralympic values in class and in PE lessons too.
The children and adults in each class are going to look out for people keeping the values. Children who keep the values will have their picture pinned up onto an Olympic wreath.

Torch Relay

Today we had our very own torch relay in assembly. We learnt all about lighting the flame in Greece. We found out about the design of the London 2012 torch. Then we had a torch relay around the hall; each class had a torch bearer.The torch bearers ran really fast to reach different parts of the UK!
