Sponsored Walk
All children from years 2 to year 6 participated in the sponsored walk to Hampstead Norreys playing field. We set off on the pathway near the village hall . We continued along singing songs and exploring the local fauna and flora until we stopped for lunch at Hampstead Norreys.
Hermitage Primary School have a new sporting event on the calendar, Hyrox Fitness Festival. Our fantastic Upper Junior team came 2nd overall, with Riley D, 1st in his group. Well done!!
Daily Dash
Every day, each class participates in the Daily Dash. To increase benefits and motivate, each class nominates a student who has shown commitment, enthusiam or motivation. At the end of the week all the students are placed into a prize draw, where a student is chosen at random, during the Monday morning assembly to recieve a sport related prize.
