- Love. Courage. Hope.
It is the end of the first half-term and that means it is CKS Festival time again. Seeing the children in their house colours working together and demonstrating the school sports values as well as the CKS values is a joy for all the staff.
Year 5 and 6 started the week off with their Hockey Festival at the Yateley Hockey Astro with Coach Tom, who has been running their sessions this half-term. It was bitterly cold but fun was had by all with some exceptional skills on show (and not just by the children who already play for Yateley - we hope YHC will be getting some more young members).
Year 3 and 4 had the best weather for their Netball Festival on Tuesday morning with Mrs Grundy, who has been leading their sessions this half-term - teaching the staff and children so much). The children smiled laughed and showed just how accurate their throwing could be when there was competition. The highlight of the festival for staff was seeing the Year 3 and Year 4 working together as well as supporting and encouraging each other.
Year 1 and 2 had their Football festival in the showers of Thursday but they enjoyed every minute. They showed true determination and focus as they earn points for their houses. There was one particular goal and face full of pride and joy that was the talk of the staffroom. This is what makes CKS Festival Days so special and memorable.
The points and willing house will be announced in Celebration Worship on Friday.
