Year 4: Triathlon
Today, Year 4 have all tried their hardest in our TriKids triathlon challenge. We’ve seen some real determination from every single child, especially in the cycling section.
Year 2 - TRIKIDZ
Year 2 participated in the TRIKIDZ and competed in a triathlon. The children really enjoyed the swimming activity on the resistance bands, bike work and running laps of the track. All of year 2 did brilliantly and demonstrated teamwork, determination and encouraged each other well.
Year 5 - TRIKIDZ Triathlon
Today, the Year 5's took part in a multisport race consisting of swimming (replicated by resistance bands), cycling on adapted racing bikes and running. They showed great sportsmanship by encouraging each other to push themselves and by demonstrating great teamwork.
Year 1- Hop, skip and jump!
Year 1 took part in the hop, skip and jump challenge in order to help raise money for the East Lancashire Hospice, which the children have been learning about today during their class worship. They have really enjoyed the activity and wearing their Easter crowns!

Inter-House Magic Catch in Year 4
We had a fantastic time taking part in The Inter-House magic Catch session led by Year 6 Sports Leaders. What a great opportunity to take part in an inter house event with our house team. Well done to the runners up - Darwen Tower and The WINNERS - River Darwen.
Interhouse Sports Competition
Year 3 loved taking part in the Interhouse sports competition this afternoon! The event has been organised and led by the Year 6 Sports Leaders and they did a brilliant job! The sports leaders started with a warm up, before showing the children how to play magic catch!
Inter-House Dodgeball Competition
The sport leaders had a great time leading the Inter-House Dodgeball Competition for the rest of the juniors. A lot of fun was had by all of the children! In year 6, the winning team was Darwen Tower!
Year 5- Orienteering- Battle
The rain wasn't going to stop the Year 5 class from their last orienteering session. The children had to use their orienteering map to visit a series of control spots. They checked their answers by using the specified letters from the control markers. They all followed instructions correctly and competed fairly.
