Stocksbridge Junior School

Every Wednesday lunchtime, at school, years 5 and 6 play girls football. We have a coach who teaches us and gives us tips on how to play. He, the coach, still remembers my sister who did it who is now in year 8. Now he has stated calling me my sisters name! It is really quite annoying! Anyway it is still really great fun!! It lasts for an hour and a fun time is had by all.  from L.Bye

Look my budding bloggers, this is how to post a message to our school blog!

At playtime we go outside, play with our friends and eat our snacks. Some people play fooball but some don’t because they play other games. Most people can run as fast as cheaters because they are very fit. We have two different playgrounds one for the Y5 and 6s and one for the Y3 and 4s because it works easier to have two different yards. When the sun is shinning it is very very hot. One yard is bigger than the other.

Last week we each had a go at designing an outdoor playtime game . We had to make it not to hard not to easy and very bright and colourful . I did a very simple game , just throw a stone or a beenbag at 1,2,3,4,5,or 6 and that is the amount of steps you take. When you get to the finish you add up your points and see who has won.

Every week on Mondays and Wednesday Steve Adams comes in and creates a tournament for the children to have fun at lunchtimes. We have 4 teams and name them differently such as: international teams and club teams. It is great fun!

I would like to make lunchtime better by setting up more games, making sure there are absolutely no bullies to small people and apparatus so we can enjoy the lunchtime.  I’d like to make it longer like 85 minutes of play and more football because lots of people like football.

I think the field needs something to clean the grass because I am allergic to it.  We also need some more apparatus for the school . We need some new surfaces for the play ground and some more activities for dinner time. It would be nice if could not have the y6 telling us what to do all the time too!

Mr F is letting use have some new equipment,  so all of the children are drawing little doodles of haow we could improve the playgrounds.  Some children are drawing snakes that would be painted on the ground! I think we should not do pay for a lot of junk because we should spend the money on new school picnic tables and pay for more people to come in and play sports with us.

Mr Foster thinks that we need more playground fun, so he said to think of something you would like to see in your playground. I think that I would like to see a climbing frames and go over the markings on the field.  I would like to go over the lines on the playground with hop-scotch, snakes and other markings.

On Friday 20th April 2007 ,at 1:45 the wizard of oz performance came to sjs

All of the school was given a sticker and on the web site we could download a sighned copy of a poster.the performance was great ,it was loads of fun. I would give it 10 out of 10. how did they get changed so fast! by natasha jagger!!

All footballers would like a fence so that when they kick the ball it does not go over the wall.  It would also be nice to have a tennis court.

I think we should have a tennis court, basketball court or a bdminton court because at play times and dinner times we just play football every day! We should get some tennis balls, skipping ropes and some more basketballs because if we get one of these we might like it and we will keep doing it and we will get fitter and fitter. (These things don’t cost much money!)

Recently, Miss C set up a singing academy for the whole school(Y3-Y6). Pupils can join if they desire, but to keep up to date with the songs, they will need to attend every Thursday lunch-time from 12:30-13:00 (depending on the weather!). Children can sing and dance along the 1970’s hits such as ‘Sunny’ and ‘Doe a Deer’ from the musical ‘The Sound Of Music’! Everybody fully enjoyed the first session and cannot wait to attend the following sessions!!!!
