Well done to our netball team, who took part in the Lancaster schools' netball tournament at Moorside School on Monday afternoon. They played really well as a team, winning four of their matches and drawing two. They narrowly took the win and came back with the trophy. Well done to you…

We have had lots of fun learning to play crown green bowls with Coach Dan. At the start of the afternoon we struggled to roll the bowls onto the target but by the end we had improved so much. We played lots of mini tournaments that focused on our technique and distance.

What a great afternoon we have had at the Y3/4 netball tournament. All the children played amazingly well and they showed true determination and perseverance, especially in the hot weather! They represented Scotforth superbly, we are really proud of them all.

Year 6 took advantage of the sunshine this morning, to revise their SPAG knowledge in preparation for next week’s SATs. As well as practising our grammar and punctuation, we also got to work on our map-reading skills and had some exercise at the same time!

A team of 8 Year 5s and 6s went to the interschools tag rugby tournament this afternoon. After a tense couple of play-off matches, we ended up second in our pool. All our games were very close scores. Unfortunately we lost our semi- final match, but came 3rd overall. The whole team worked really…

We enjoyed taking part in the Largest Girls’ Football Day. We continue to have opportunity every Wednesday where Morecambe Football Club come and work with the girls to play football. 

Today, we have taken part in our Y3/4 Intra sports. We played bench ball and had to work as a team to score points. We used tactics and spatial awareness to outwit our opponents.

We have been learning counter balances in our PE lesson today. Coach Millie has been teaching us how to use a partner to create balances.

We have been practising dribbling a ball in PE today. We worked in teams to bounce on the spot and move with the ball. We will use these skills when we play some invasion games.

Today we have used our new badminton nets in PE. We have practised serving the shuttlecock and worked on keeping a rally going with our partner for as long as possible.

This morning, Year 6 had their first taste of badminton. We learnt how to hold the racket, the ready position and then attempted to hit the shuttlecock and return it to our partners! We worked really well together in pairs.
