Miss Varnava and Miss Smith who accompanied the children said that the behaviour of the pupils was impeccable.

Cross Country 

Some children in Years 4, 5 and 6 took part in the borough's Cross Country event at Oak Hill Park earlier in the term.  The children ran for 1 mile. The weather was not on our side that day, but the children did really well to complete the Cross Country event. Although we did not win the children enjoyed the day and we will have another opportunity in March to compete again. Well done team Wren!

Years 1 and 2 Mixed football Festival - The children enjoyed their weekly football practiceBowl before taking part in the football festival against other schools.  Our Year 1 and 2 team played well against the other schools in our group and won most of their games.  The maturity the children displayed when rotating positions was lovely to see, especially when some of the younger children were not as experienced in some positions.  It was great to see our children cheering each other on and shaking their opponent's hand at the end of each game. 

Years 3 and 4 Girls Football Festival - The girls had a great morning, competing against five other schools in our group and won some of their games.  They rotated the formations, so each child had the opportunity to play in different positions.  The children showed maturity at the end of each game, shaking their opponent's hand regardless of the scores.
