6J Tag Ruby Session 3

6J loved their tag rugby lesson in the rain today! We worked on passing to a team mate as we approach the defensive line, and how to ensure our attacking team remain onside. Next lesson, we are hoping to put our skills to use in some small sided games.

Please can we ask that children in 6B & 6J bring in a torch from home on Monday in preparation for later in the week. This is to support with our work in Science where the children are studying ‘Light.’

Calling New Global Avengers

Mr Jones is on the hunt for his new team of Global Avengers!

This is a club set up for children who want to make a difference to the world around them; be the voice for those who can’t speak for themselves.

In recent years, Global Avengers spearheaded a campaign for Toilet Twinning, where we managed to put toilets in 5 of the poorest parts of the world: Shropshire Star Link.

This year, we are hoping to embark on a new global project, where the children will lead the way in being advocates of change and making a difference to those most in need.

This club meet every Thursday lunch time in 6J. If you think it is something you would be interested in, please sign up on Parent Pay or speak to Mr Jones for more information!
