Year 3 and 4 Learn to Play Homeball, by Mrs Walsh
Date: 21st Jun 2022 @ 4:46pm
Year 3 and 4 have played an adapted version of Home-Ball today. Home-Ball is a unique game which is played inside a court completely surrounded by nets.
The game encourages people to have a go and try something new and different.
Home-Ball courts have started being erected in French parks and communal areas to encourage all ages to play. France also has Home-Ball tournaments and championships. Unfortunately, we do not have one of the courts so played a simpler version of the game but with similar rules.
All the children were very supportive of each other, enjoyed playing and applying skills learnt in other sports, especially Netball.

The children also created a whole school pebble art work.I Every child in school had painted a single stone. Individually each stone did not create anything in particular but together all the stones made a fabulous piece of art work, demonstrating that together we can, 'Make a Difference.'
During the celebration, the children performed songs and year 6 read aloud a letter of thanks they had written to Queen Elizabeth.
Finally, the School Councillors planted a special Jubilee Tree, donated to school by Ebony Errington-Beech, a former pupil.
