On 29th November 2023 we held our Yr 3-4 Alternative Activities Festival at the ARENA, Norwich.  This was an Engage themed event and was for pupils who enjoy taking part and come to have a try, friendly games were played after the skills sessions. All Pupils received a participant certificate and the school games value celebrated for this event was Self Belief. All children were encouraged to display the school games values and fair play but each team nominated one pupil from their school who stood out the most for showing Self Belief School Games Value. 

We had the following 8 schools attended our event:

• Costessey
• Firside
• Kinsale Jnr
• Queen's Hill
• Scarning
• St Peter's
• Taverham Jnr
• Toftwood Jnr

The schools participated in 8 different activities and Hellesdon High School sports leaders, who were brilliant at supporting and encouraging the children to do their personal best. It was great to see 80 children involved in various activities and a great opportunity for the pupils to represent their school in a sports event. The pupils were active and improved across the day. Following on from todays event, we encourage schools to provide the children an opportunity to develop and improve  their skills further by putting on clubs before/after school, break and lunchtimes.
