Making bridges in gymnastics - year 5

In year 5 we have been learning how to balance on different body parts to make bridges. Here are a few examples of the children performing the bridges they created. 

Table Tennis Club Group A

This lunchtime, our year 6 table tennis superstars have had great fun improving their technique and precision! We look forward to seeing Group B the first week after half term!

Year 6: Rugby

Sporting their coloured rugby tags, Year 6 began their first of many rugby lessons with Mr Murphy, who is currently teaching rugby to a number of schools in the Upminster locality.

After a warm-up that put the children through their paces, our tag-tackling players worked on improving their attack and dodging skills through a series of games. The highlight for our budding rugby stars was an energetic game of tag bulldog; they can't wait to play again!

Our new found love for rugby couldn't have come at a better time; we are all looking forward to the start of the Rugby World Cup!
