Sports Fundraiser for Pakistan Floods Appeal

Years 1 and 2 had great fun today taking part in a sports fundraiser for the Pakistan floods appeal.

Each child brought in a pound towards the appeal to take part on our amazing obstacle course which involved lots of jumps, slides, twists, turns and lots more! Please see the photos below to see the fun that we had.

Thank-you to all the parents for their support with this event.

Autumn Term Updates

Welcome back!

I hope that you had a great Summer break.

Please remember to send back your child's P.E Kit.

For P.E lessons children need:

- A plain white T-shirt
- Black shorts
- Plimsolls
- Dark coloured jogging bottoms for outdoor P.E when it is cold

P.E is an important part of the school curriculum so please ensure that your child has their P.E kit in school each week.

At Glade, all children take part in 1 hour of indoor P.E and 1 hour of outdoor P.E each week. They also take part in a daily 10 minute physical activity session in class, as well as the Chinese exercise on a Friday. This helps to develop a healthy and active lifestyle and we ask you to help us to support this at home too.

We are pleased to be able to offer a wide range of extra curricular sporting opportunities including clubs and competitions for your child to continue to develop their skills and enjoyment of sport.

For any information on P.E or School Sports please feel free to talk to me.

Thank-you for your continued support,

Mr. Merchant
