Ecclesall Primary School

An amazing, slightly chaotic morning of cross country running at Longely Park for the final races of the season. With the children split into relay teams of four, every runner had to tackle a very steep uphill section early on before coming back down to hand over to their team mate.
Every member of Team EPS should be incredibly proud of themselves - some runners even did double legs (or ran out of age group)- fantastic!
Many thanks to Mrs Marlow who helped out this morning and all members of staff who have helped at these events throughout the season and we are already looking forward to next year when cross country starts again.

Year 2 have been working on developing their understanding of the DT cycle (design, make, evaluate) looking at how axles and wheels work. The children were asked to design a safari vehicle that could transport some African animals down a ramp safely and there was great success in all classes. We then spent time evaluating what went well with different designs and how successful the children were at working as part of a small group.
