Sports is an important aspect of school life. It helps to keep children’s minds and body active, it’s good for their wellbeing, it builds resilience and helps to strengthen team skills.
This term we have made sure that children at Stanmore have been given as many opportunities to participate in sport activities as possible. They have had the opportunity to take part in football, running, yoga and multi-skills.
We recently entered two cross-country races, where the children who took part did incredibly well in running against other schools despite the weather and competition – all the children thoroughly enjoyed the events and showed great sportsmanship.
The highlight for Stanmore School is that Seth and Thomas from Year 6 have been chosen to take part in the Cross-Country Championships on Thursday 5th March in Basingstoke! Good Luck boys!
We hope to continue our love of sport at Stanmore by participating in more competitions, encouraging more children to attend clubs and hosting a sports event at the school!
