Tri-School cycling competition – Friday 7^th April

It was the last day of term when six people from Barrs Court went to Beacon Rise school for the tri-school cycling competition.  Our team was made up of three boys and three girls – Jamie, Ben and Jacob, Angel, Ella and Neela.  The other school taking part in the competition, apart from ourselves and Beacon Rise, was The Park School. The first round was a 20 metre sprint across the field. Beacon Rise went first with good results, we went next and were astonished by our times which were all under 8 seconds.  Unfortunately for us, The Park, who went last, were equally as fast, if not quicker. Next was the control round, on the school playground.  We had to complete four laps of a small square circuit.  If we put our foot down or went out of the course, we were given a two second penalty.  The teams went in the same order as before.  When it came to our turn, we slipped up twice, costing us valuable points.Finally, we completed the endurance race which went round the outside of their large playing field.  Everyone was extremely proud of their results.  Competitors set off in threes, with a 10 second gap between each person. Everyone in the Barrs Court team caught up with the person in front of them. At the end of the event, the results were announced.  In third place was Beacon Rise.  We were then told that the gap between first and second was only 1 point.  Unfortunately, Barrs Court was in second place, with The Park coming first.  It was a great event and it would be really good to do it again.Swimming GalaOn the 4^th of March the swimming adventure began! The Year 5 and 6 team consisted of Amy, Chloe, Neela, Danny, Ben, Joe, Willem, Liam, Sam, Eva, Isabel, Emma, Troy.These are the races that they swam:

On the 27^th of March we played The Park at home and we beat them by 9-1.

Coming up to this game we were not expected to beat Beacon Rise due to the fact that we have only won one out of four. In the end the score was unfortunately 3-1 to them.

On the 2^nd of February we played a home match against Cherry Gardens which we won 7-1. Our away match on the 6^th March against St Annes A was a hard game however, we still managed to win 5-1.

After a few cancellations due to the weather and also because they were playing other teams or they were not expecting us, Marshfield was our last game of the season in the end the score was 8-3.

Our first game was against Frampton these games were all 7 minutes in the end the score was 6-1. Our second game was against Olveston and we fortunately won 5-2.

Going onto our next match, against St Stephens, we were excited because we wanted a challenge although we were a bit unsure on how they played because we had played their boys team and their coach said that it would be a really tough game for us. In the end, despite him saying it would be a tough game for us, we drew 2-2.

We had never had a game against this team and were unsure if they were a strong team or not but in the end the score was 4-1 to us.

After this game we had to wait a while because the host was working out the upcoming matches.

Eventually, we found out that we were playing St Peters. This team was against us in the semi-finals and in the end the score was 4-2 to us we were in the South Gloucestershire final against our toughest team (Beacon Rise). After half of the game the score was 0-0. We then scored the first goal of that half but Beacon Rise then scored a further 3 goals. In the end the score was 3-1 to Beacon Rise.

ATHLETICS COMPETITION – November 2016

Barrs Court Primary school entered this competition confidently, due to the fact we had recently done well in other sports. We arrived at the Grange sports hall to compete in a series of athletic events. Considering the fact that we were the only team to have Year 3/4 pupils as part of our team (who were Macey, Archie, Sophie and Isabelle), we performed well in all events. The events were: different lengths of running, over and under, obstacle relay, 6 lap race, javelin, and standing long jump, vertical jump, triple jump, speed bounce, chest push and javelin.The competitors in the first event (which was the obstacle relay) had a strong race with a tough time to beat in the girl’s race in addition to the boy’s race. We had a few very strong races and as a result came 1^st in some of our races. While the track events were going on, the throwers and jumpers were up and ready to have their go against schools such as: The Park, Staple Hill, Wick and Cadbury Heath. We had some strong opponents who were very dominant in some of the events.In the end, after a lot of tough sports we proudly came 2^nd in our group however could only grab a 6^th place overall in the two groups altogether.
