The teachers were lucky last week to have a coach from Essex Cricket Club come in to teach us some different cricket games - watch out for them in PE!

Poplars class were lucky enough to have their gold-leaf shields chosen to be displayed at the National Gallery as part of the ‘Take One Picture’ project. Mrs Hooper, Mrs Bennett and Miss Stiff attended the opening of the exhibition and were so impressed by all the projects from schools around the UK. How fantastic to see John Bunyan school as part of this special project!
On Tuesday 17th December 2019 we had the annual JBP curling competition.
During half term, we ran a sports and activity day for 38 children.
They all enjoyed a range of activities including dodgeball, football, dressing as a Mummy, apple bobbing, just dance and Art.
The children and adults really enjoyed the day and look forward to the next one in February half term!
Our New Multi Use Games Area
We have enhanced our sporting curriculum with the addition of an amazing Multi Use Games Area.
The children now have a dedicated zone for sport and a place to practice and develop their technique, fundamental movement skills and cardiovascular fitness. Along with gaining a love for sport, we hope our new Multi Use Games Area will encourage children to lead a healthier lifestyle.
For this project, we worked with Pentagon Play who design and install outdoor learning environments for schools and nurseries.
