SJB Primary School

Possibly our most enchanting visitor this year. Thank you to Nell, Dennis and Mark for making our science topic really come alive.

16 of our Year 5 and 6 girls played several games of cricket today at Ulverston CC.

The girls played really well and were consistently good at bowling.

We sent two teams and one of them reached semi-finals and then the final after playing some superb cricket.

Thanks to Jake for organising.

19 of our Year 5 and 6 children went to Brockhole this evening for the final of the orienteering events.

Two of our girls came away with trophies for 2nd and 3rd place.

We now look forward to the county qualifiers next week in Barrow.

11 of our Year 3 and 4 children went to South Lakes Safari Zoo today.

They had to work as a team and make their way around the animal enclosures finding different clues and markers.

It’s another busy week of sport. Orienteering tomorrow and girls’ cricket on Friday.

Year 4 really enjoyed their third storytelling session. The session began with Dominic telling us another fantastic tale. We then travelled to the hall where he showed us how to best use the space available to improve our delivery. We’re really looking forward to using a combination of our skills and the stage to share our stories in several weeks time.

We are practising using our hands to create interesting body language. Of course we expect a story with every visit.

Year 5 continued their study of Ancient Greece today with a look at food.

This proved very popular in class but the olives divided opinion.

We are racing through Greek Myths at the moment and we are also finding similarities and differences between Ancient Greece and Modern Britain.

We are also finding links with The Vikings. This was our topic in the spring.
