On Wednesday Room 1 and 24 teamed up to represent 'ENGLAND' at our School Commonwealth Games Day. We had already met together a couple of times to organise wearing our team colours of red and white, to recite our team song 'Oh when the Saints' and to paint flags and banners. Team leaders, Emily and Ben were chosen and both classes were split into an A and B team.
At the opening ceremony we proudly chanted our way round the court and sung our team song loudly, then onto the competition. It was great fun participating in all the activities especially the tug of war and the obstacle course. As well as getting points for winning each event we were awarded points for demonstrating respect, manaakitanga and fun.
ENGLAND did extremely well in all areas and came 1st place so Miss Tuxford and Miss Lythgoe were very very proud of all the kids in Rooms 1 and 24.
