Congratulations to the whole class who participated in The body Coach school HIIT session (High Intensity Interval Training).  Below is one of his videos.

 

They seemed to love it although there were a lot of complaints about sore legs the following day.  We are continuing the fitness theme with our Daily Mile run each day to help develop our fitness further.

Children’s University passports are available for children in Year 6.  We would like as many children as possible to take part and graduate before leaving Year 6.
