Children from Northway participated in our annual sports day, superbly organised by Stacey, our resident P.E. teacher.

Key Stage 1 took part from 10.30 to lunch time and started off with a child and parent warm-up and then followed it with some of their favourite activities on different stations. These included: parachute popcorn, bean-bag throwing, colour match games, a sensory circuit and a water challenge. To finish it off they had relay races and a parent race.

In the afternoon, Key Stage 2 took part in a child and parent warm-up and then took part in some of their favourite activities in class groups. These included:  football dribbling, javelin, frisbee throw, basketball, a sensory circuit and to cool down, a water challenge. They finished off with relay races and adult races.

N & O class had a super visit to the Thames Valley Adventure Park. The children loved the park and played and learnt all day long! 

Children from Northway participated in a sports event at Allianz Park. They were able to try out a range of different sports, from boxing to golf, rowing to rugby. 

We experimented with exploration and discovery using our senses.  We made Sensory Rockets, which were great fun thanks to Mark at ‘Hands On Science’. The children tasted different ingredients (apple juice, lemon juice, sugar and bicarbonate of soda) to help them create a rocket that launched with a ‘pop’.

At Northway we have been using our iPads to explore augmented reality. We have all been fascinated by by our new visitors to the school.
