Skip2bFit day at Park!

What an amazingly positive and healthy start to the week it was yesterday.  ‘Little John’ from @skip2bfit completed many exhausting sessions showing the children from Years 2 through to 6 how to skip, skip, skip your way to physical bliss!

Through the use of special durable, adjustable and self-counting skipping ropes the children had to challenge themselves to beat themselves.  They get to skip to a two minute music slot to see how many skips they can do, there can be no cheating as the skip does the counting for you.  The children had an amazing and exertive day and even got treated to a free batch of blueberries to give them some super power after their exertions.

A special mention has to go to Oakley from 5MS for the highest count of the day – an amazing 280 skips in 2 minutes, he even beat our highest staff count from Miss DeCurtis at 263 in 2 minutes.  Mr Farry, showing his age,  chipped in with a meagre 249 skips…  more resilience required : (

Hi, my name is Mr Farry, I still consider myself very much part of a great team in a great school, we really do ALL pull together to ensure the children complete a fantastic and enjoyable curriculum. I am still the P.E coordinator (a veteran now that I’ve joined the over 40s club), and still completely passionate about sport and my role in sport at Park. I am still actively involved external sports (both team and individual) and consider this essentially to maintaining a healthy body and mind. The children will tell you I’m still the jovial and humorous person I was when I joined the school, buy I’m simply four/five years older and ‘hopefully’ a little wiser, albeit with a few stray greys! My classroom is a busy place, with high expectations whilst still maintaining a nurturing environment, especially with the kind and generous Mrs Lucas by my side. The children, thus, continue to feel comfortable and content in their learning environment.
