On the 25th March, teams from schools all across the borough gathered to take part in an exhilarating Badminton Festival. The atmosphere was filled with anticipation and excitement as the students prepared to learn all about Badminton which they did with such excellent team spirit.
As the Festival got underway, the children took part in 10 activities focusing on different aspects of Badminton. They displayed determination and resilience throughout, never giving up even when faced with tricky challenges. From the beginning to the end, Clockhouse demonstrated exceptional determination and perseverance recalling lots of new information needed to help then along the. They did so with precision and speed with some fantastic shots using the racket and the shuttlecock.
The children started the day nervously and excited to have such an amazing opportunity to learn all about Badminton as this is not a sport that is regularly taught in primary school, by the end of the morning session, the children had made great progress and understood the purpose of the game and the could demonstrate the key skills needed in the game and ready to take to secondary school.
The children represented the school excellently with amazing team work and behaviour which was commented on by a member of staff from the Festival. Well done Team Clockhouse you have made us all proud!
