Sports day success!
All news
On Friday 6 June, CJS headed to Grove Park for a day of sporting activities and friendly inter-house competition.
The children worked their way around a carousel of six activities, scoring points for their respective houses; Gray's Inn, Barbican, Carmelite or St. Paul's. Events included the 50m and 600m runs, Vortex (javelin), Shotput, Long Jump and Standing Triple Jump.
Everyone enjoyed a rest station break, with more light-hearted activities including a sack race and tug of war. Not forgetting, of course, an ice cream van orgaised by our PFA.
The temperamental British weather settled on a cool, slightly overcaset 19 degree - perfect for a day of sporting events!
It was a pleasure to have so many parents cheering along the children. We were very proud of the way CJS pupils engaged in friendly, supportive sportspersonship, celebrating our values of community and joy. Thank you to the PE staff for hosting and organising our biggest (and best!) sports day yet. We're already looking forward to next year's event.
