Young Whistlers Course

Today some of our Sports Crew had the exciting opportunity to take part in a referee course led by retired professional referee Darren Handley. Darren has officiated many football matches and has years of experience in the game.

The children learned about the rules of the game, decision making and the role of a referee. It was a fantastic experience and a great chance for them to develop their leadership skills in sport.

Well done to everyone who took part!

Glow Dodgeball

Today some of our Year 3 and 4 children took part in an exciting Glow in the Dark Festival with other local schools! It was a brilliant opportunity for our pupils to have fun, work as a team, and challenge themselves in a friendly sporting event.

The children enjoyed lots of activities where they learned new skills and practised their catching and throwing, showing great enthusiasm as they aimed to get players from the other teams out. The glowing equipment made the whole experience even more fun!

Super Sport coaches

Here at Oxford Grove, we are very lucky to have so many wonderful afterschool clubs run by external coaches. This term we have welcomed some fantastic coaches to deliver new and exciting clubs for our children — including Boxercise, Jiu-Jitsu and Zumba.

These clubs give our pupils the opportunity to try different activities, learn new skills and enjoy being active in a fun, supportive environment. Whether they’re learning how to stay fit and healthy, learning self-defence or dancing away stress, there’s something for everyone.

We believe that such clubs not only help children stay healthy and active, but also build confidence, teamwork, discipline — and sometimes even a lifelong interest or passion.

Thank you to all the external coaches for bringing energy and enthusiasm, and for making afterschool club time such a success at Oxford Grove!
