EYFS Sports Day
On Thursday 27th May, girls in Cornflower Nursery and Reception school spent a few hours competing in the 2021 EYFS sports day.
As part of this terms’ topic ‘How high can I jump?’ the girls designed their own sports day events with the help of the reception teachers. They took part in a running race and then a carousel of six activities including; the egg and spoon race, running with a bean bag balanced on their head, an obstacle course, a balance competition, a throwing accuracy competition and of course, the participants’ favourite, a chance to splash Mrs Crouch in the ‘rubber duck chuck’.
The staff race was also a tremendous success with commendations going out to Miss Sibly and Mrs Fleming for their superb turn of pace at the end of the sprint to take 1st and 2nd place.
Mrs Crouch, Headmistress of Headington Prep School said: “The girls showed great spirit throughout the day. They very much enjoyed the duck chuck getting me thoroughly soaked in the process! I’m glad I brought in my waterproof trousers!”
