9 enthusiastic Year 6 footballers took part in the North Somerset Small Schools football final. The 9 students representing Churchill were a credit to the school and themselves. Showing true sportsmanship and resilience throughout the matches. Each and every one of them should be immensely proud of their efforts. 

Overall, Churchill came 3rd and took home their bronze medals with pride. Fantastic achievement Year 6! Well done to all who took part. 

 

16 keen long distance runners took part in the North Somerset Schools challenge this week. Completing 1000/1200m, 18 schools were represented across the county, equalling close to 80 participants in each race. The races were divided into year groups and boys/girls. The 16 students representing Churchill were a credit to the school and themselves. Some were proving to themselves that they could do it, while others were out to make their mark. Each and every one of them should be immensely proud of their efforts. 

With the top 12 from each race being invited to represent North Somerset in the regional heats, 3 of our students managed to break into this elite group. As well as that, a personal medal was presented to Isaac for being in the top 3 of his event. 

A massive well done to all that took part.

8 members of Year 3 were chosen to represent Churchill at the transition festival. The children took part in activities such as tennis, cup-stacking, bowling, kurling, boccia and many more. Churchill showed great resilience and built up their confidence throughout the festival. 

The pride and sense of achievement these children discovered was magical. Some even wore their medals with joy till the end of the week. 

"I'm so proud of myself, I might cry"- Year 3 pupil 

Our Year 5 Netball team had the opportunity to take part in the Bee festival at Bristol Grammar School. The girls thrived in the friendly environment meaning they we able to focus on the skills within a competitive game. We look forward to building our team this year.

Year 5 and 6 were treated to an afternoon of action-packed fun involving lasers. Everyone was trying their hardest to beat their previous 50m sprinting times, as they were timed as accurately as Olympic sprinters with the use of laser timings. 
The children also tried their hand at laser shooting towards a target. The afternoon finished by combing both skills in a team relay.
The children had a great time and are looking forward to further sporting opportunities during the coming year!
