Six of our Year 3 children took part in the Schools football festival at the Beacon of Light recently, as part of our partnership with Sunderland AFC. They took part in a carousel of PE activities in the main hall, before taking to the pitches outside to take on a number of schools in quick-fire friendlies.
There were some excellent performances on the day, with goalkeeper Archie the stand out player, making some absolutely exceptional saves at times. A number of stickers were given out to the children, for things such as inspiring play and teamwork. Charlie even received one in jest, to cover up the rival Newcastle badge he was donning. He took it in good spirit as always.
A great team bonding exercise for the children. The children represented St James perfectly and their behaviour, attitude and manners were wonderful. Well done!
Squad: Archie, Elle, Lewis, Sam, Parker, Charlie
