Year 3 and 4 take on the Cooper Run Challenge

This term in PE the children are working on their health related fitness. We began with the bleep test last week and this week the children completed the Cooper Run Challenge. They all successfully ran for a constant period of time and managed to prove to themselves that they are long distance runners. During the challenge the children also used their numeracy skills as whilst some were running the others were recording how many laps they could complete, this was very successfully and provided the children with a baseline, hopefully they can do even better next time! "The run was difficult but I managed to complete 14 laps around the playground, even though I was out of breath I was extremely proud of this!" from Sienna in Sequoia class.
