Pipers Vale Gymnastics- September 2024
By Daisy & Ava Be
Yesterday afternoon, Otter, Owl and Fox class went on a trip to Piper’s Vale gym centre. There we practiced our agility and upper body strength skills. In the one hour 15 minutes that we had, we completed three different activities. But first, we got to do a fun warm-up lead by the instructors and got to have an amazing 5 minutes play in the large foam pit! In our first activity (for Otter class), we had to walk across different height beams. In the second activity, we lined up in 2 lines in front of two pairs of parallel bars. We had to shuffle along those bars in different ways and then jump along a long trampoline and then re-join the back of the line. In the last activity (which was most people’s favourite) we had to go against another team in an obstacle course. After that we had to swing on levitated bars and drop into another foam pit. In conclusion, we think that this was an excellent trip as most people really enjoyed it. Some people are even re-visiting it out of school!
Responsibility Rainbow Value Day- Courageous Advocacy
We has a wonderful learning about different people who have shown courage when standing up for what they believed in.
Hedgehog: David Attenborough
Hedgehog class learnt about how David Attenborough has courageously advocated for animals and the environment through his documentaries.
Fox: Mary Seacole
Was a nurse from Jamaica. She looked after British Soldiers. As a mixed race women in 1805, people often told her she could not do things.... but she never gave up!
Owl: Malala Yousafzai
Malala wrote a book about her life "Malala's Magic Pencil." In the story, she uses her magic pencil to redraw reality and try to make the world a better place.
Otter: Jane Goodall
During our Rainbow Value Day, pupils in Otter class were amazed at Jane Goodall's dedication to saving chimpanzees over the last 60 years. When researching, they learned about her initial work in Kenya to learn about these incredible creatures when she was 23. This led to her inspiring work being carried out globally to raise awareness about chimpanzees' abilities and nature, as well as keeping their habitat safe from threats. Otter class made flipbooks to demonstrate their knowledge and enjoyed lots of craft activities that involved chimpanzees, creating jungle binoculars and drawing Jane over the years. Did you know that we share 99% of our DNA with a chimpanzees'?

Day 2
A wonderful day at Manor Adventure. Anesu was up and ready first! After an early start and a large breakfast, we were out on the water learning to sail mini catamarans. It was a windy morning, which allowed the children to get some real speed across the lake. They enjoyed played games- chase the flag and racing between the buoys, before eventually taking a quick swim to cool off. Zeno and Rubin proved themselves to be true sailors, racing around the lake like pros!
After lunch we headed back to the lake, and enjoyed raft making and paddle boarding. The children had to use all their cooperation and resilience skills to build the raft. Faraj, the knot expert checked the raft was strong enough for water. The “Barrell Barge” survived its maiden voyage, despite a few children ending up in the water. The Pirates decided that the teachers needed to go for a swim too and capsized the raft!
Leo and George showed the rest of us how to paddle board, demonstrating their prowess and control, racing around the lake, and avoiding an unexpected swan. It was only towards the end that George realised that he’d spent the whole session paddling backwards and making things even more challenging for himself! Anseu glided around the course, taking on every challenge with a smile on her face. Faraj was so kind checking in with everyone. After a few unexpected (and planned) splashes into the river and it was time for tea.
There was much excitement when the tuck shop arrived!
