2024-2025 Corbet Schools Indoor Athletics Results

Congratulations to the Y5&6s, who recently were selected to represent the school in this event. After all of the results of the track and field events for both the boys and girls were totalled, Myddle CE Primary School finished in 1st place overall😁🏆🥇

Well done to all of the boys and girls for all of their individual performances!

As part of ‘Number day’ today, the pupils took part in a tough but great fitness ‘accumulator’ which they thrived in, then produced their own gymnastics sequence using 90, 180, 270 and 360 degree turns. It was excellent having mixed aged groups together for a change to share abilities with each other.

It was great to have Mrs Flynn visiting Y5&6 on Thursday afternoon to inform the pupils about her career in the Environment Agency. They learned about how her role helps with the flood defences and how her career path developed from primary school, through to the role that she has now. Thank you Mrs Flynn. It was wonderful that you gave up your time to do this.

A huge thank you to all of the parents so far who have given up their vaulable time to come in to Jaguar class to talk to the children about the jobs that they do. Today it was Mrs Wild who we need to thank. The children learned all about hypnotherapy, what it involves and the skills that are required to follow this career route. Yet again, the pupils showed great interest and are really enjoying these sessions. They are now looking forward to Mrs Flynn next week!

A big thank you to Mrs Millward (and Kieran) who gave up their time to talk to the pupils in Y5&6 this afternoon about the work that they do for the rail company. It was really interesting to listen to and the pupils were very engaged with the images and videos that were shown.

Well done to the 18 pupils in Y5&6 who were selected for the indoor athletics event this morning at The Corbet School. They took part in several sprint relay events as well as field events which consisted of long jump, triple jump, vertical jump, speed bounce, javelin and chest push. The children encouraged and supported each other and displayed a sensible approach throughout the morning. Results will follow in due course……

A huge thank you to Mrs Good who organised a ‘careers’ talk with the pupils in Jaguar class on Friday afternoon. The children learned about the different opportunities for a career in the NHS, what skills and qualifications they would need, and took part in different practical ‘life saving’ based activities, which Mrs Good had planned and organised. The pupils learned a lot and had a great afternoon.

Well done to Eve, Mia, Ruby, William, Archie, Caspar and Bertie in Y6 who were chosen to represent the school in a dodgeball competition at Corbet School. They played really well and developed tactically as the competition progressed. Having played 6 games, they won 4 of them, which meant that they finished 2nd behind the winners, Bomere Heath. Well done everybody. Even after the tournament finished, they wanted to carry on playing!

Well done to the eight pupils in Y5&6 who were selected to represent the school in a boys’ football tournament at Shrewsbury Town today. They played 3 fixtures against other Shropshire Primary Schools, which resulted in a 0-0 draw, and 0-3 / 0-1 defeats. It was good experience for the children and they gained vaulable competitive game time against other teams. Thank you to Mrs Emerton Maka for escorting the children to this event.
