🏅🌟 Nursery Sports Day 2026 🌟🏅

3rd Jun 2026
Our Nursery children had a fantastic morning at their annual Sports Day today! Although the weather had other plans, it certainly didn’t stop the fun. ☔➡️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

We moved from the outdoor pitch to St. Mary’s Youth Centre, and we would like to extend a huge thank you for kindly allowing us to use their facilities. Your support helped ensure the event could go ahead smoothly. 💙

The children showed great enthusiasm and determination as they took part in a variety of activities, including:

 

🥚 Egg and Spoon Race
👢 Welly Throw
🏃 Running Races
🛍️ Sack Races
🎯 Beanbag Races
🚀 Javelin Throw

There was plenty of energy, laughter and teamwork throughout the morning, and the children had an absolutely wonderful time. 😊

To finish off the event, everyone enjoyed a special treat from the ice cream van 🍦, which was a huge hit with the children! They also received a lovely sports-themed lunchbox treat from our canteen services. 🥪🏅

 

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make the day so special. The children loved every minute of it, and we think there will be some very sleepy little athletes tonight! 😴⭐
