St Mary's CofE Primary School
We love. We learn. We flourish.
The final day of Sports Week starts with the annual 'Staff sports' event.
The children get to cheer on the staff as they compete in the following events:
Egg and spoon race (no blutack allowed!)
Danger catch (water bombs and bravery needed!)
Ostacle race (beware the gravel rash!)
Spider run (fallers will be left behind!)
Syrup and oats (you will get messy!)
Three legged race (beware the rope burns to the ankles!)
This year, we had to introduce the use of VAR (Miss Hopwood on video duty) to ensure there was no cheating.
Unfortunately, Miss Airey was disqualified from the egg and spoon race for over use of her hands on the egg and Mr Newall was a faller during danger catch.
Mr Hoyle was a super speedy addition to his syrup and oats team and Miss Shaw and Miss McCloskey almost took the win during the three legged race. This year, Mrs Quinn and Mrs Belfield announced their retirement from the three legged race after ten years of unbeaten success.
A big thanks to Miss Sharkey who organised the whole week.
