    Level 2 School Games Year 5/6 Quadkids Athletics

    On Friday 9th June, AJS took two teams of athletes to compete in the School Games Quadkids Athletics Event at Sir Harry Smith Community College. There were 13 teams competing from Chatteris, Wisbech, March and Whittlesey. Teams were made up of five boys and five girls. Each member of the team competed in a 75m sprint, 600m long distance, standing long jump and a howler throw. Depending on the time or distance the children were allocated points. The points were then added together to give a team score. The children all did an amazing job putting maximum effort into each event. The overall result ended with the AJS team A coming 2nd and AJS team B coming 8th. Well done to all that took part.

    Year 2 trip to Woburn Safari Park
    Just before the Easter holidays, Year 2 went on a fantastic trip to Woburn Safari park! When we arrived at the park, we travelled on the road safari, where we got to see lots of different animals. We even saw some brown bears climbing trees and swinging in a hammock! One of our favourite parts was watching the monkeys climbing on the coaches! During our visit, we had an interactive lesson with one of the zoo keepers at Woburn. She talked to us about animal adaptions and helped us to add to our learning from our Science and Geography topics. After lunch we got to explore the foot safari, where we saw lots of other interesting animals including wallabies, penguins, meerkats and snakes! A big thank you to the parent helpers who came along for the day, everyone had a brilliant time!
