Athletics Day at May Road School

While the senior school had their Athletics Day- we had tabloid sports.

We had fun  throwing and catching balls with our partners. When we catch the ball we need to have our hands ready to catch it and we need to watch the ball with our eyes.

After that we threw beanbags into hoops. We had to point to the target, some of us stood sideways and we  aimed to throw the bean bag into the hoop.

Our last activity was a hurdle relay. Here we had to jump over the yellow hurdles, run back down the side and tap our team mate so they could  go next.

We had a really exciting day doing tabloid activities on our field. The sun felt nice and warm on our back.

Green Day

Today was Green Day and we did experiments with static electricity. The SchoolGen children helped us with these experiments. Here is what we learnt:

It was green day today and we can wear green things. We went down to the hall and did fun things.  Isaiah

We went to the table and we learnt about static electricity. We moved the balloon up and down our hair. We felt our hair dancing. We went to the next table and there were two boys showing us that rubbing their hair gives us energy. We rubbed the straw and we moved the straw- we didn't touch it. Jahrey

We had fun in the hall. We had a balloon that we rubbed up and down on our head and then our hair stuck on the balloon. We went to the next table we had a straw and we rubbed it on a towel. Then we put the straw on the bottle top and we made the straw go round without touching it. Astera

On Thursday we went to the hall and we had to sit in our groups. We watched the children show us how our hair was dancing after we rubbed it with a balloon. Mariam

It was fun when we went to the hall. The balloon made my hair go up and it was fun.  Harvest

Today was green day. At the hall we were doing science experiments. The experiments were with sugar and salt. The balloon picked the sugar up.   Sauni

Today is green day and everyone had to wear green. We went to the hall where some people taught us magic. We sat in six groups.    Alzarah

We went to the hall in groups and in the hall it was Green Day! I went to the first table and we rubbed a straw with a towel then we popped the straw onto a lid. Then we got another straw and we didn't touch the other straw, but the straw went round. Then we went to the next table and when you rubbed the balloon on your hair and your hair will dance. Then we went back to class.  Amethyst.

Today it is Green day because it says Green Day on the paper. We went to the hall and we had six groups. First we rubbed a balloon on our head then my hair was copying the balloon. Then we moved to the next table and we rubbed a straw with a towel. After that I was pushing the straw and it was copying the straw. After that we went to the next table. We rubbed a balloon on our head and then we put the balloon down by the sugar and it came on the balloon. It was sticking on the balloon. It was fun too.
