Special Mentions
Well done to Jacob D in Year 3 for his wonderful homework on Roald Dahl. He worked very hard on a fantastic fact file and appeared in our Good Work Assembly.
Congratulations to Brooke Deakin for becoming a Crusader and to Lily Cann and Holly Hunt for the amazing achievement of becoming Super Crusaders. It takes a lot of hard work, consistency and determination to become Crusaders and Super Crusaders so our new additions have done very well.
Rival Run
On Friday 4th of May, 3 children from Key Stage 2 entered a competition. This competition was the cross country and the length for Year 3/4 was 1200m but the Year 5/6 track was 1500m. The children who competed were, Jessica Burlinson Year 5, Connor James Year 3, Charmaine Wagstaff Year 3, Brooke Deakin Year 4 and Amy Read Year 4. There were 2000 runners altogether. Jessica came 11th, Brooke came 20th, Amy came 15th, Connor came 5th and Charmaine came 5th as well. All of the children ran really well and they tried their best and that’s all that matters.
Over 15 children in Year 5 have beaten their daily mile time and we’ll bet the other classes have beaten their times as well. All the classes are doing really well in the daily mile and on Thursday had bibs on to represent their house.
Chatsworth have 1 medal, Peveril unfortunately have 0 medals, Hardwick have 2 medals and Haddon have 2 medals drawing with Hardwick.

Hunting for
House Beks
Charming Chatsworth are in the lead with 4668. Hardworking Hardwick are leading with Mini-Leader points. Patient Peveril are not in first but still not far behind on 4241 Beks. Happy Haddon are sadly in last but only 16 points behind Peveril.
Haddon, Peveril and Hardwick can get back into the game to try and win. Chatsworth could defend their 1st position spot, it is anyone’s game. They need over 300 points to become 1st place. Don’t forget to get points for your team and be good.
Make sure to look out for the new word search.

Every Monday a football coach comes and teaches KS2 how to play football. This tremendous teacher is going to be teaching KS2 for 6 weeks and he will be teaching them a lot of his skills. On the 16th of April, our coach taught the KS2 children to dribble. In preparation for the upcoming tournament, all of the children have been working extremely hard.
The children are looking forward to all their sessions and are thoroughly enjoying their lessons. This seems like the perfect time for budding footballers to grow!

Year 5 swimming was about building confidence up so if people fall in the water they can save themselves. Some people got 5m, 10m, 15m ,20m, 25m and 50m. Also, some people achieved water safety 1 and 2. There were some great games to play to help us as well.

Year 5 Swimming
The year 5 class have been working hard on their swimming skills to try and get their 25 metres. Not only have they got their 25 metres, some have achieved 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 50 metres.
We all had one lesson on water safety and we had to pretend that we were in the sea. When one person was swimming we all had to throw water over them. It was hard because we had to wear our pyjamas but fun!

The spring school disco, held on Wednesday 11th April saw children and parents from all classes across the school having a great time whilst dancing, singing and having fun. The event was held in order to raise funds for resources and future activities within school.
Thanks to you, we managed to raise a great £244.86!
Children from all year groups were enjoying the music and electric atmosphere. We have some very talented dancers among us at Anthony Bek.
There was music, snacks and towards the end, we held a raffle. More music followed until finally the disco drew to a close. Until next time…
