Take a look at some of the exciting learning we do in our class!
Year 3 had a brilliant day at the tag rugby festival hosted by Warrington Wolves! We have been having rugby lessons each week with a coach, learning the key skills needed for tag rugby. We then attended the festival where we competed in teams against other schools. We had a wonderful day and loved meeting Wolfie and PC Panda!
