St Marys Qualify for finals of Indoor Athletics!
On 9th January our Year 4-6 Athletics team participated in the Haringey Indoor Athletics Competition. There are 3 heats to this competition with the top 2 from each heat plus best 3rd place qualifying for the finals. After some fantastic athletics where Ezekiel won gold in shot put, Zani and Wealthy won gold in high jump and the boys won their 4×1 relay race we found out the results. We’re happy to announce we qualified for the finals and will be back on 27th January to attempt to win a medal. Well done all!

Cycling Round 4 – Indoor Roller Racing!
The following day (10th January) we sent our cycling team to compete in the indoor Roller Racing event in the Haringey Cycling League. This is a super event where the children race on static exercise bikes that are linked up to a big screen and they can see, virtually, where they are in the race on the big screen. We competed very well in a high ability competition with Ada standing out with 2 big wins! Well done to the whole team!
Cyclists: Preston, Walter, Charlie, Zaiah, Kairo, Lily B, Eliora, Yanet, Ada, Amina,
Middlesex Cricket Club Deliver Cricket Masterclass Sessions
Thank you to Middlesex Cricket Club for coming every Thursday for this half term to deliver a masterclass Cricket session to our Year 3 and Year 4 children! The children really enjoyed their first session, made good progress and showed their ability and enthusiasm for cricket!
Children Develop Their Skills In Gymnastics Through ‘Floor Routines’
It’s gymnastics season again and we’ve started with floor routines. The children across both sites have been learning balances, rolls and jumps and performing them to the rest of the class. I’ve been super impressed with both their love of gymnastics as well as the progress made throughout the school!
We move onto using the apparatus in the coming weeks, we’ll also be having a gymnastics assembly as well as a gymnastics trial ahead of the Haringey gymnastics competition. On we roll!
