This week, pupils have been filling in a questionnaire to share their thoughts about sports day. Pupils were invited to suggest new activities and share feedback. Some pupils were concerned that only ‘sporty people’ win. Remember – staff also award points and certificates for effort, resilience and team spirit!
Pupils also rated each activity from 1-5.
Below are the scores and show how we have selected this year’s activities.
See you all on the 14th June for a fun day of sports!
